With the Snow Prince being involved somehow, I expect the Volkihar to be something completely different. We have speculated what reason the Falmer serve in this DLC, as they shown one in the preview. And the Snow Prince is tied to the Falmer.
What if the Volkihar, the real Volkihar, created myths so that the common mortal would be confused? For example, the Falmer are ugly, pale and blood-thirsty. They never venture out into the open. They have frost magic abilities and by all means they look vampirish. The Volkihar could of used them as a scapegoat. While Harkon and the real Volkihar vanished, the Falmer could of been the false public face of these vampires. No one looking at the Falmer back in the Third Era was going to point fingers saying it was just a Snow Elf mutated by shrooms and enslaved by the Dwemer. Farmers and peasents would go around screaming "vampire!"
Edit: Harkon is known to have "returned". So during his absence to wherever the hell he was, these Falmer could of been the "Volkihar" we all read about in "Immortal Blood". A good deception. By the time a scholar would figure out the truth, the real vampires would of been long forgotten.
