A samo slowo - jestem prawie pewien - napisalem dobrze. Sprawdzalem kilka
angielskich tekstow do tego odcinka, trafilem nawet na strone ze scenariuszem i
wszedzie jest tak samo: mand-I-cation.

Tez to mandication widzialam wlasnie w scenariuszu, ale w zadnym slowniku nie
znalazlam, ani mandication and manducation.

There is a word sharing the root(?) with 'mandication':
mandible - noun, tech,
1.a jaw which moves, esp. the lower jaw of an animal or fish or a jaw bone
2. the upper or lower part of a birds's beak
3. either of the two biting or holding parts in incects and crabs.

In humans, the mandible is the largest and strongest bone of the face + 'serves
for the reception of the lower teeth'.

Manducation came from google:

It might fit, as they are talking about sounds that would suggest 'vampyric
activity'.
