I'm thinking of using deaths would be a good idea?
Any ingame actions which allow to save time - it is always a good idea.

If you plan on improving it, be sure to time all hits when you kill enemies/bosses. As right now you are just using turbo which leads to not all hits being optimal as well as a couple of missed hits which doesn't look good. You can try to use the RAM Watch/Search, unless you aren't already, to see when you are able to hurt a boss and so on.
P.S. Small tip: Try to avoid killing low creatures in places where simple possible to overjump them. {Attack in a sitting position is slow down.}
For example you spent unnecessary time wasting by killing of rat in 1-1 (frame 1836) or spider in 1-2 (frame 2740).

This thread about Bram Stoker's Dracula, it's not the place to discuss other games. Try to ask in correct thread and probably someone will help you.
I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

I should suffer damage in rat 1-1 (frame 1836) and jumping spider 2-2 (frame 2740)? if I do this and die in chief I will lose 36 frames

Why you should suffer damage? It is easy to do without damage. Look here:
BS_Dracula 1-2(fixed)
As bonus i also a bit improved boss fight for you :) In total 20 frames faster.
I thought it was to suffer damage in rat 1-1, thanks
Oh dear, such a horrible game choice! But should be ok for vault :)
P.S. It reminded me:

Since this year was quite rich for Dracula and Frankenstein submissions, I decided to finally beat the Sega CD port.
This is a TAS fragment which passes the main route of Level 2 for demonstration.
In the second room, if you don't kill the final spider coming down to from the ceiling, you will not transit to the secret door to your left and, instead, will go forward like usual. This will take you to the Cursed Library, and then to the room with candles and the dragon mini-boss.
Even though this route is faster than the alternative route by 324 frames (by in-game time), it shows a scene from the movie which lasts for at least 1537 frames. It makes this route quite slow, so I leave it here to ease the future judgement.

TASing is like making a film: only the best takes are shown in the final movie.
