"We are in Transylvania; and Transylvania is not England. Our ways are not your ways, and there shall be to you many strange things." Bram Stoker’s classic horror novel tells the story of English lawyer Jonathan Harker. Travelling to Transylvania to meet his reclusive client, Count Dracula, Harker soon discovers Dracula’s true nature: he is a centuries-old monster with an insatiable appetite for blood! Sensing new opportunities to spread his vampire curse, Dracula sets his sights on England. Ranged against him, the wily Professor Van Helsing and a dedicated band of young men and women. But who - living, dead or undead - can stop him?

A dreary castle, blood-thirsty vampires, open graves at midnight, and other gothic touches fill this chilling tale about a young Englishman's confrontation with the evil Count Dracula. A horror romance as deathless as any vampire, the bloodcurdling tale still continues to hold readers spellbound a century later.

Van Helsing arrives to shine a light on some of the strange occurrences. So begins the battle against Dracula and his ilk.
