Earnest and naive
solicitor Jonathan Harker travels to Transylvania to organise the estate of the
infamous Count Dracula at his crumbling castle in the ominous Carpathian
Mountains. Through notes and diary entries, Harker keeps track of the horrors
and terrors that beset him at the castle, telling his fiancé Mina of the
Count’s supernatural powers and his own imprisonment. Although Harker
eventually manages to escape and reunite with Mina, his experiences have led to
a mental breakdown of sorts. Meanwhile in England, Mina’s friend Lucy has been
bitten and begins to turn into a vampire. With the help of Professor Van
Helsing, a previous suitor of Lucy’s, Seward, and Lucy’s fiancé Holmwood
attempt to thwart Count Dracula and his attempts on Lucy and consequently
Mina’s life. //ir
