Please find explanation of code in comments.

#START of code

def cout_spooky_monsters(monsters_list):

    # initialize spookiness variable

    spookiness_count = 0

    # iterate over monsters_list.

    for monster  in monsters_list:

        if monster["spookiness"] >= 2:

            spookiness_count += 1

    return spookiness_count

def count_vampires(monsters_list):

    # initialize vampire_count function

    vampires_count = 0

    # iterate over monsters_list

    for monster  in monsters_list:

        if monster["kind"] == "vampire":

            vampires_count +=1

    return vampires_count

    print("Number of monsters are of the kind vampire is",count_vampires(monsters_list))
