V:TES History – H is for Hold – Wizards of the Coast stops publishing V:TES
On the mailing list VTES-L, Ryan S. Dancey (then brand manager for VtES) wrote around February 2nd, 1998:

H) Vampire: The Eternal Struggle
Ah, letter H. For VtES fans, “H” might as well stand for “Hold” which is where VtES is in terms of future expansions. There is no chance for a VtES product in 1998, and virtually no chance for new VtES in 1999. We are, however, planning to get some better support for Vampire players in terms of Organized Play at cons this summer, and a better and more responsive internal team for answering rules questions.
As one of the most successful TCGs ever, Vampire has a special place in the hearts of many people here at WotC. While it is not a part of our current design plans, we do respect deeply the people who have invested in the game and continue to find it an enjoyable diversion. After three expansions and a reprint of the basic set (and the conversion of the backs of the cards, a conversion more painful than any other in TCG history…) the game has probably reached the end of its lifecycle here at WotC. However, we continue to monitor the market and to talk about the brand, and if the company makes the decision at some point to reawaken the beast, we’ll ensure that you’re the first people to know.

Embraced: Unknown
Uncle George is a former pornographer turned Sabbat vampire. He was recruited just for fun a number of years ago, but has proven to be a useful member of the pack. He is quite insane and extremely nasty in combat. He has a tendency to over-drink, glutting himself until he can hold no more.
