Woohoo!
Ha ha ha
My lord, the enemy is at our door.
Are the Azzamians so cruel as to interrupt our life?
They will pay for it, my beloved.
Come on.
Is this war necessary?
Can't we all live in peace with God and then for us?
You are my reason for being, Elisabetta.
Take care of yourself, my king.
My life.
Because I cannot survive without you.
That's enough, my lord. War called.
Victory is yours.
My men will take you to Vilmer Castle. To our cause, you will be safe here.
Amen.
This battle will be bloody, Your Eminence.
The dead will number in the thousands.
Are you sure God wills this?
Our kingdom is the last bastion against the Muslims.
Do you have faith in our Lord?
I do.
I am ready to die for you.
Then hunt his barbarians to the last man.
I will fight in his name, but I ask him for one favor.
I'm missing my son.
I want him to spare my wife.
If she doesn't survive, I won't be able to go on.
Everything would lose meaning. Life would become unbearable.
Come here, sir. You're his best friend.
The Lord gave you life. You must honor and serve him. But he gave me love as
well.
He cannot blame me for being unable to live without it.
If he takes her life, he can take mine too.
I will pray for you at rest.
No, don't pray.
Tell him.
They're here in the forest.
What is your plan, sir?
Let them come.
THIS IS MINE!
The princess!
Speak. There was an ambush.
She managed to escape.
Where did she go?
The forest of wolves.
We've been praying for her since you left.
So God is dead?
Or you did not pray hard enough?
My prince, God has his own reasons. It's not for us to question him.
Perhaps he had another destiny for her. She has no other destiny. She is dead.
And he didn't even allow me to say goodbye to her.
I beg you, tell God to send her back to me. It's impossible.
Why?
Why? Because God does not perform reincarnation. But he can perform
he not?
Can he not?
If you pray hard enough, he will listen to you.
Please, tell him.
Tell him!
She knows a good Christian and a pure soul.
I'm sure God will take care of her.
And what about me?
I've done everything he has done.
My soul is stained with the blood of our enemies whom I have killed in his name.
I don't have the answers, my friend. I'm only his humble messenger.
Good. I have a message that I want you to deliver to me.
Tell your God that until he
brings me back my wife, My life no longer belongs to him.
When did you arrive?
Around ten minutes ago.
Okay.
Where did you leave him?
In the chapel.
It seemed much appropriate.
You did the right thing.
You did the right thing.
Father?
I presume.
Yes. You have a very beautiful chapel.
Yes, it's true.
Thank you for making this trip, Father. It must have been a long and arduous
journey. Exhausting, I must admit.
That's why I'm partaking of some light refreshment I found right here. I hope
you don't mind.
Not at all. You're most kind.
I'm sure it tastes much better than the beer in my native Bavaria. I'm sorry to
welcome you in such an ingratious manner that...
I'm afraid the hospital administration and diocese don't support your presence
here. I'm used to it.
The church and the scientific academies don't get along very well.
That's why the Vatican for centuries has been in the habit of delegating its
most delicate cases to us.
This case is very delicate. The Queen of England herself is concerned.
The Queen?
Exciting.
It's the ceremony of the centenary of the French Revolution in a few days.
There's a lot of excitement everywhere.
Why so many chains?
A bird shall fly away?
She was quite aggressive when we picked her up. A real beast.
Even animals are entitled to a little humanity. What do we know about her?
Maria de Montebello, 25, from Bologna, Italy.
Engaged to Mary Henry William Spencer, consul here in Paris.
Great nephew by marriage of the Queen herself.
That's why this case is so delicate.
More than delicate, sensitive.
Anything else I should know?
From what I've been told, it all began during the wedding which took place on
their family estate as Maria objected to a church.
However, the groom had invited the Bishop of Westminster to bless the union
at the sight of the clergyman, the bride was teased with hysteria.
And a sexual appetite beyond comprehension.
Appetites can be a sign of very good health, can they not, Doctor?
Well, certainly, within limits.
May I? Sure.
Born on the 18th of March, 1759.
It must be a clerical era of a wife. It would mean that she is... 130 years old,
exactly.
130... So you believe this woman is a creature of devil?
That's a hasty conclusion, Doctor.
Very often when a situation escapes our understanding, we see in it the work of
the devil.
The fact that she's old and allergic to God's representatives is merely a
symptom, not a disease.
It is very important in cases like this to study, to observe without prejudice.
We must.
follow the rules and laws of nature, science, mathematics, not those of
superstition of the church, which I must admit can be a trifle obscure.
You see, Doctor, we have to approach this like a criminal investigation.
First we establish the facts.
From there we deduce the motives, the circumstances, the location.
Could you hold this thing?
And the murder weapon?
My order has been studying this phenomenon for more than 400 years. I
for more than 30.
And I can state for the record, Doctor, you are the first one to have captured a
specimen alive.
Congratulations.
Thank you, Doctor.
What exactly did I capture?
A vampire.
Don't listen to him, Doctor.
The oversized canines could be a clue, but they could also be a natural
explanation.
So we must look elsewhere.
Now this creature, like any other, is definitely the work of our Lord.
But for some curious reason, it seems God may have other plans with it.
Contrary to popular belief, vampires adapt very well to light in general.
But it is direct brains they cannot take.
This is crazy, doesn't it? Again, you may be right. This could be just another
anomaly of nature, so we have to continue until we find irrefutable
Well, I think we have all the proof we need, Doctor, don't you?
This is beyond science and understanding.
That's why I am here.
My dear child, may I call you Maria?
Of course.
You can call me as you like, Father.
I'm all yours.
Maria, if you answer my question nicely, I will give you what you want.
I know you need.
Allow me.
Come a little closer, myself.
Science requires sacrifice.
Are you ready to make one?
I suppose so.
What are you doing?
These drops of blood, a meager contribution to science. I'll buy you a
soup, you'll feel like a new man.
Thank you.
Maria, show me your neck, please.
You see? She's not a first -generation vampire.
So you mean there could be more of them?
Without a doubt. For 400 years now, we've been looking for the source.
The source?
Yes. My mother.
Who is he?
What's his name?
Where can we find him? No, don't bother.
He'll find you. Is he in Paris?
No. Very soon.
Maria.
Maria. Maria.
Who is he?
He's a prince.
A prince.
He's come for the celebration?
No.
He comes to... Find his princess.
His princess?
Who is she?
What does she look like?
Very beautiful.
More blood, please.
You had enough.
More would be greedy.
So, what is your conclusion?
Now we can find a princess who will lead us to her prince.
Good luck.
Are we there?
Take this road. It is at the end. Can you help me with my luggage?
Can't leave my horses alone.
Too many wolves around.
Glad to hear it. Do you have a crucifix with you?
No.
Take mine.
Keep it always with you.
Thank you, but I do not believe in God.
Then pray God believes in you.
And return.
Hello?
Is anybody here?
Oh.
Excuse me. I... You surprised me. I desire to apologize for my...
somewhat my... dramatic entrance.
Give me this.
My apologies, sir. I didn't introduce myself.
Jonathan Harker, solicitor. You are quite young for a lawyer.
Yes, I joined Philip Rosacek in Paris earlier this year.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
And you are?
Vlad II, Prince of Wallachia,
Count Dracul.
Your Excellency, apologies for my clumsiness. I was given no physical
description of you. My poetry is not well known, except of these words.
Oh.
My lips, eh?
Is that a gramophone?
Yes, it is.
I've never seen one before.
I'm very curious to see... Later, maybe.
Let us die.
Fine.
This is so good.
Your appetite is a pleasure to see, young man.
Everything is so delicious, and to be honest, I was starving to death.
That certainly won't be the case here.
The upkeep of such an abode must require a countless amount of staff.
Too many.
And yet, I'm puzzled not to have seen any. They are very discreet.
You want anything?
Later.
Try this.
Nice trick.
Fantastic flavor.
It is one of the recipes I bring back from India.
You travel a lot?
Not anymore, but once upon a time, yes.
I visited every continent and crossed all oceans.
Oh, you must have so many wonderful stories to tell.
I do.
Were you troubled for work or pleasure?
I handled certain affairs, it is true, but I am retired now.
I let my associates... travel around the world in my play.
And it's my associate, Mr. Jenkins, who arranged for my visit here.
And once again, let me thank you for quoting me a moment of your time.
I have plenty of time.
So, what brings you here, young man?
Well, among the many properties that you own in Europe, there's one in
particular.
An old abbey in the heart of Paris.
The county which we represent wondered, given the dilapidated state of the
property, if you might be interested in selling.
Ah, I think it's this one.
No, not this one.
Sorry. I must admit, the roads are quite chaotic to get here, and my stuff is
all upside down.
What do they want to do with it?
A hostel, I believe. The Great Paris Exhibition is coming soon, and...
The city will receive millions of visitors.
And this one?
It's located near Saint -Germain -des -Prés, not too far from the river La
Seine. I will show you.
Are you a believer?
Sorry, what did you say? Do you believe in God?
Not really.
The coachman gave it to me.
Old positions run deep, I suppose.
Enough talking for tonight.
Let me show you to your room.
This castle is well -guided, but I prefer you to not leave your room under
circumstances.
Forgive me, but what exactly are you afraid of? Old castles like this are
with memories that might haunt you.
Oh, I'm not suspicious.
That is a pity.
Watch him.
Elizabeth.
Good evening.
How may I help you, Father?
I'd like to speak to Mr. Henry William Spencer.
Please.
Yeah? My apologies for disturbing at such a late hour. I was sent by a
Dr. Dumont of the Hotel Dieu Hospital.
Oh, God, the hospital in Mariaz. Indeed.
Is something awful befallen her? Yes. No, she's alive, clinically speaking.
Oh, thank God. Please come sit down and tell me everything.
Father, I'm worried sick.
Is her health stable at least?
She doesn't eat much, drinks reasonably well, yet she's bursting with energy.
That bodes well, doesn't it? Yeah. That bodes very well. Yet do we know more
about this evil thing that's eating away at her?
We're making progress, but as you know, science is a long, winding road that we
can only travel step by tiny step. You have a very nice place here.
Yeah, which belongs to the English crown. Yeah, the crown has always known
to make good investments.
What can I do for you, Father?
I'd like to visit her room.
May I ask what you're looking for?
Nothing in particular. It's just important that no stone be left
You're a bit like an inspector on a police investigation.
Precisely. Except I tried to solve the case before the murder.
I'll leave you to it.
And if you ever need any help on any occasion, I'm your servant.
Thank you. That's very kind of you.
There you are, Princess Elisabetta.
You should not have left your room.
Oh my god.
is not welcome here.
The devil?
God. Evil.
Two almost identical entities. Two minds battling one another without showing
themselves. And we, we are their playthings.
We are puppets that move only in their behest.
No! No! No! No!
Do you intend to kill me?
I do.
But not right away.
It is important to wait until the blood engorges the head.
Who are you really?
I am just a poor soul condemned by God.
And cursed to walk in the shadow of death for all eternity.
And sustain myself on fresh blood.
Human blood is recommended.
Why would God do such a thing? He is only love and mercy. Oh, I thought you
not a believer.
I am now.
You are very funny.
Thank you.
What is your last wish?
Tell me your story.
My story?
Yes. Please.
I want to know everything about you.
This is your last wish.
Is to listen to a story from an old man.
Lower him down.
Lower him down.
Life is nothing but a long, hard road, my friend.
Death is a privilege that God grants you.
and denies me.
And yet, I was one of his most faithful servants.
What happened?
He took my wife, my princess, the love of my life.
Since then, I've lived on, waiting for her return.
How long, exactly?
400 years.
That's pretty long.
But how can you be sure she'll come back?
Sometimes pure souls can be reincarnated.
And my beloved was the purest of them all.
Forgive me, but I presume you don't know when, where or how?
Precisely.
That doesn't seem like a very good deal.
Had I known sooner, young man, I would have hired you as my...
You've been looking through all this time?
The task has not been easy.
The Black Death spread all over Europe for centuries.
Nearly 200 million souls were decimated, half of them women.
This made my research all the more difficult because all the remaining
were gathered in holy places where I was not welcome.
That I began to envy the unfortunate that death claimed.
Living without love is the worst disease of all, my friend.
It is like a fine, incessant rain that gradually eats away at your
bones, turning you into a formless sponge, unable to stand upright.
And then, after a while, no matter how strong your love is,
you lose your faith.
And yet they said that hope is the spice of life.
In my case, I would prefer that hope
kills me.
But all this was of no use, because God denied me the right to die.
Over time, all desire disappears,
even the desire to end one's life.
All you are left with is an
odorless, charmless melancholy and the hope
that I will find her one day. But I couldn't visit every castle
house in Hamlet.
So, if I couldn't go to her, I had to find a way for her to come to me.
How?
Poison? Now look at this who is being dramatic.
It is a fragrance that I developed for over a century.
I visited the great city of Baghdad, known for its magical gardens of a
thousand and one flowers.
Then I continued my journey to Canache, an area where I
learned to capture the souls of the most sensitive flowers.
But it was only back in Europe that my research came to fruition.
First, to the colorful fields of Grasse in France, where some flowers have
intoxicated our imaginations for centuries.
And then, finally, in the heart of Italy, in the magnificent city of
which was, at the time, the capital of all the perfumes.
Sir, I think this is it.
The color is quite pleasant.
Never mind the color.
The scent is divine, and the effect guaranteed.
We shall see.
Perhaps it would be wiser to try outside.
No, this seems to be the ideal place.
Oh, mamma mia.
This perfume was highly effective,
more powerful than I could have ever imagined.
it was not the most unpleasant.
Indeed. And then, after visiting every court in Europe, I ended
my journey with the famous French court of Versailles.
The king at the time, Louis, whose number I forget.
This little buttercup had a bright idea to bring together all his novels and his
artists of his kingdom to keep closer eye on them.
There is no doubt in my mind that if Elisabetta had returned,
she would be here.
I'd never been so close to finding her.
In my heart, I was as excited as when I...
Elizabeth.
No, I'm not Elizabeth.
I'm Isabelle de Touraine, but I'll change my name if you want to.
But my task seemed impossible, and on this day, hope left me.
Father, effort, time, and money spent only serve the right
of debauchery and artifice which left no place for love.
It is now time for me to entrust the task of finding my Elisabetta to others.
How many did you bite?
It doesn't matter.
Because in the end, my associates were as unlucky as I was.
So I returned to my Elisabetta.
Yeah!
And since then, I have rarely left this castle with the deluded hope that one
day my disciples will finally find my beloved.
Sir, you seem to know what you're talking about when it comes to love.
I do.
Then you have to spare me, please.
I do have a beloved, and you've separated forever.
Whose name?
God?
No.
In the name of love.
Are you married?
I proposed to her just before I left.
And she accepted.
Yes, she did.
We to be wed as soon as I return.
That is unfortunate.
If you kill me, you should die of grief. I know it.
What does she look like?
The locket.
There.
Around my neck.
Inside is a photograph.
No, Lina.
Lina.
This woman is my girlfriend.
But I will...
Spare your life for filing a form.
Keep him prisoner.
Everyone come down.
Come down from there.
Build this pile. Build it. My horses.
Prepare my horses.
I need to be killed.
I need to be built. I need blood.
I need blood.
Lots of flesh blood.
This is a portrait of the woman our prince is searching for in your great
of Paris.
He's been looking for his beloved for more than 400 years.
We've been tracking him for just as long. But the resolution of his endless
is about to happen now, right here in the heart of Paris.
She's left -handed.
Yeah. Good observation.
This book contains all observations my congregation has compiled over the
centuries. You speak German? No.
Well, let me read you a little piece.
It is likely that these creatures are the way they are as a result of a divine
curse, göttliche Verflucht in German.
If God can give life, then consequently he can also give death.
But he can refuse in cases of great offense or blasphemy.
Then the offender will be condemned to wander the earth for all time.
But even more interesting, God can forgive the offender, however,
in the event of true repentance.
Death will be granted and the curse will be lifted.
This means if we succeed in destroying this demon, all those who he's bitten
will be freed from the curse.
And suppose we do manage to find this demon, how do you intend to get rid of
That's the easy part. You drive a stake through his heart with a hammer and cut
off his head.
Wonderful. In another book it's mentioned that cloves of garlic will
flee. I doubt that method is effective.
Yet more within my grasp.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves. First we have to find this woman, because
she's the only one who can lead us to him.
Strange.
What? The young woman in the portrait.
Yes, what about her?
She bears a striking resemblance to the young woman you asked me to keep waiting
in the next room.
Madame?
Are you Dr. DuMont?
Indeed. How can I help you? I'm a friend of Maria DuMont's fellow. I learned
that she's under your care and I came to inquire as to her condition.
Of course.
To... Whom do we have the honor?
Mina. Mina Murray.
I was at Maria's wedding when the tragedy occurred.
You knew her well.
Knew?
Oh. No, no, no, please, please. My apologies.
No, no, she's very well. I mean, her condition is stable. Sorry.
Praise be to God.
Indeed, my child.
Would you mind if we ask you a few questions? It could help her recover.
Yes, of course.
Are you related?
No, not at all.
I'm not from here.
Can you tell us about your relationship behavior?
Well, I met Maria a few days ago at a
tea party that her future husband organized.
Henry.
Why did you?
When she saw me, she took me under her wing.
She never really let me go.
It was as if she could sense that I didn't really belong.
She took me into her room and we talked.
We laughed a lot.
It was so nice.
What did you talk about?
She could talk about anything.
She was...
She was particularly fond of... ..discussing love.
To the point of making me uncomfortable.
But she was so excited.
About what, exactly?
About everything.
And then, suddenly, she just...
She tore herself apart.
Why did you attend that wedding?
I accompanied my fiancé, who knows everyone,
it seems.
He's from a very respected family, I suppose.
You suppose?
Yes, I do.
I don't know.
My dear child, you have before you a doctor and a priest, both bound by the
strictest confidentiality.
You can express yourself without fear.
To tell you the truth, this wedding has upset me.
Like a bad premonition.
My engagement happened so quickly. I don't...
I don't know.
If you love him.
I do, of course.
He's wonderful.
Any young woman would be delighted by such a match. But you're not any young
woman.
I can't help but feel like I... That I... That I
don't belong in this time.
I apologize.
You must think me incredibly naive, and I'm boring you with my problems.
Absolutely not. Quite the contrary.
Could you write down your address, please?
Of course.
I'm staying at a boarding house until Jonathan returns.
You're left -handed. Yes. I've often been advised to become right -handed.
Don't change a thing.
It's very charming. Thank you for your visit.
Thank you for seeing me.
I'll go now to the hospital chapel and pray for her. Excellent idea, my child.
Good day.
What is it, my son?
I have no shelter and have not eaten for centuries.
I am cold as well.
I will take him to the chapel.
Please, come in.
Come in.
Thank you for the invitation.
Don't move. I'll get you a hot bowl of soup.
You are too kind.
Who are you?
Count Draco at your service.
Thank you for the suit, but I require something richer.
Don't worry.
You won't catch fire.
Your evil spells have no effect in the house of God.
Oh, really?
In the name of the Father, the Son, and the evil spirit.
Come,
my brothers.
Look what God has made of you.
Heart of stone and dormant body.
Suffocating under their own thick tissue.
Let me free you from this prison.
Good evening.
The hospital is closed.
I found the bastard.
I found him.
You've done very well. Thank you.
Thank you.
You deserve an award.
Here you are.
Sorry for disturbing you, Father.
The doctor will be here immediately.
I'm coming.
If this patient's disappearance could remain a secret between us at least for
while, you can count on me.
He lost a
lot of blood. I was thinking of giving him a transfusion. I'm sure he would
loved that.
Yes, of course. Sorry.
He uses a pleasant perfume.
I never noticed.
How could she have escaped with all the chains?
There was an outsider accomplice.
A man?
He was seen wandering the hospital.
Is there a description?
Thirties, elegant and richly dressed.
Blue eyes, tall and upright.
Mina's in danger.
We must warn her.
Are you cold, my child?
No.
I've always loved spectacles.
Expecting visitors?
No.
I'll see what it's about.
Ta -da!
But you're here! Indeed I am. Oh, it's a miracle. I'm so... I'm so relieved.
Don't worry. Evil is gone as quickly as it came.
Let's not speak to us anymore.
What's your feeling? In tip -top shape and ready to celebrate my returning
style. Dr. Dumancy let you go. What?
I have so much energy today. I don't think he could have told me.
And your fiancé? In Scotland.
Oh, look what I have.
But your hat will go together.
Where? Three front row tickets for today's celebration.
You're welcome.
Three? Oh, yes, my friend. The one I've been telling you about is in town. And
he's dying to meet you.
Quickly, go change.
Go change!
These are wonderful hot chocolates. You have to try it.
I know my friend is very beautiful, but I'm a bit offended.
Forgive me.
Your beauty brings light to this place filled with dark suits and top hats.
Very true.
Madame, it is an honor and a pleasure to see you again.
Have we met before?
In a dream, perhaps.
I have this strange feeling that we have known each other.
For a long time.
That's very romantic.
Terribly.
Excuse me.
I seem to have lost my mind and my manners.
Vlad Lisekin, Prince of Wallachia.
Count Draco.
Pleasure to meet you.
Maria.
You promised me hot chocolate.
Yes, but first we're going to have a little fun.
Sorry.
please. I'm going to feed the bees.
It's scaring me not to love young girls.
I took the liberty to have libations prepared while we wait for tonight's
Excellent. Marie, it's not really proper to fit in the room of a man we've only
just met. Don't worry, I won't let go of your arm.
Ta -da!
What do you think?
It's wonderful.
I don't know about you, but I'm starving.
I'm excited.
You sit here, princess, and I'll bring you a hot chocolate.
Thank you for accepting my invitation.
Your apartment is fit for a king.
I'm just a prince.
All right.
You live in Paris.
No. Further north, in the country, where life is quieter.
You like the quiet.
Not at all.
I love nature.
Birds, trees, and the wind that makes them sing.
May I ask, where do you live?
My family home is an old castle at the foot of the Carpathian Mountains in
Romania.
There I know only winter and loneliness.
I love winter, with its harsh landscape.
My parents dream of Andalusia.
Perhaps the memory of another, older life.
I suppose so.
May I show you something?
Beautiful.
What is it?
It is a music box.
Many people think it was invented in the 18th century by the Swiss. But I found
this one at the merchant's table in Constantinople.
It dates from the 15th century.
Mark.
I gave it to my wife as a gift.
You're married?
Widowed.
Forgive me. You're forgiven.
And it still works?
Of course.
Do you know this melody?
I'm so familiar.
I've traced my memory.
I don't know from where, when.
Keep searching.
In your heart, in your skin, in your soul, in your soul,
you feel me, Elisabetta.
Not Nina.
I'm only haunted by the memory of my wife, my one and only love. And you look
much like her that it troubles me.
Her name was Elisabetta.
And when she wanted me, she used to play this little tune that echoed through
the castle.
It was my signal to run to her.
This is all very touching.
I am Nina.
Nina Murray.
And I am getting married in a few weeks' time. Yes, of course.
Forgive me for bothering you with my stories.
These are all pains that your presence has brought back to life.
And I sincerely apologize for this.
Please.
I cannot accept this. It's far too precious. A gift can never be refused.
And maybe this melody brings back some memories.
Nina! Come!
It's gonna... We'll start in 10 seconds.
Thank you for a wonderful evening.
It has been an eternity since I have known such happiness.
Has the word become unfamiliar to you?
My wife took it with her.
Good night, then.
Goodnight.
Jonathan!
Jonathan! What has happened to you? I thought I would never see you again.
It's better he rest. He's gone out. What happened to him?
Nina, do you know where he went?
No, not exactly. To a castle where he was held prisoner and from which he was
miraculously able to escape at the risk of his very life. Do you know who owns
this castle?
No. Maria's very good friend, Count Dracula, the one who's infected her and
others.
No. No.
You must be mistaken. The Count is charming.
You've met him?
Yes, the Count.
He's an absolute gentleman. He even walked me to my door.
How
did
he find you?
I don't know.
It all happened so quickly. Maria came here when she told me you had relieved
her. Maria's kept knocking out three guards in the process and drained most
the blood from my clerk.
I... I... I don't believe it. Take a seat.
Calm yourself, because what I'm about to tell you will be difficult to hear and
even more so to understand.
That man is a hematophagous.
It feeds exclusively on fresh blood, human blood mostly.
He's a vampire.
Yes, he is.
It bites its victims usually in the neck and sucks their blood until they're
dead. Some of them are, so to say, spared, but they become vampires
Maria is one of them. I need to make sure that you're not as well.
Of course not. I've never touched her disrespecting me. He behaved like a
perfect gentleman.
He uses a perfume to seduce his victims, a kind of elixir that annihilates all
will and removes all inhibition.
So you may be under his spell and not even know it.
How awful.
Indeed.
But it's easy to verify.
May I see your neck, please?
Always well.
It's a miracle, really.
This way.
Good evening, sir.
Father.
Quiet, please.
We have guests who are sleeping.
Yes, sir. Sorry.
What are you doing? Don't you get on this double -off screen? Mina, don't be
afraid. I mean it no harm.
Yes? Miss, I seem to remember being perfectly clear about the rules of the
house, which include no music after 8 p .m. and pass me not.
Please forgive me. I hadn't noticed the time.
Good.
Now, sir, if you are the gentleman you claim to be, you will leave this room
immediately. I understand.
My regards.
No, not that way. Go out the way you came.
You cannot jump. It's much too high.
Mina, I've waited almost 400 years to see you again. So if you want me to
I can.
Yes. No, leave.
No. I beg you. Get yourself under my window.
So you'd like me to die further away?
Yes. No.
Yes.
Get off the balcony immediately.
You're right.
And not even once. You used charm to seduce me like you do to all your
You're right.
It is a perfume.
But I never used it with you.
I'm told you drink the blood of your victims.
It's true that you are not my victim. You are my beloved.
Quiet. My one and only true love.
Who are you to talk to me like that?
I am damned, Nina.
I am a dead man condemned by God's will to live.
Because he took you from me.
So I cursed him and abandoned him.
Contrary to popular belief, I don't like blood.
Even if yours has a delicious taste to it.
Without it, I would only be a repulsive old man and you'd hardly dare to look at
me. These are all just words.
Charming words meant to deceive me.
You're right. Sometimes words can deceive.
Take my hands.
Hands never lie.
They will tell you the truth about me, but also about you. About who you really
are.
And they will tell you how much they've enjoyed caressing your face
and your neck and your hips too.
Remember the last thing you said to me?
You said take care of yourself, my prince.
My king.
Night -night.
I want to be with you, Ferdinand.
Take me.
Come on.
Take me.
I want you to take me. Now.
You have your whole life ahead of you.
And I only offer death.
I want to be your friend.
Yes. That smell.
It's the same as in the hospital.
Same perfume.
He's here.
Oh, my God.
They left.
But where?
There's only one place.
It appears Mina's gone missing.
With him?
I'm afraid so.
This man is the devil.
He must be stopped as soon as possible.
Precisely. But do you think you'll be able to guide us to his castle in
Yes. Father, we can't just go like that without any preparation, without any
help.
I think I know someone who could help us.
Ta -da!
Here I am.
I love you.
So you missed me.
Of course, my darling. I pray for you every day.
What happened? Is it a miracle? It is.
God heard your prayers.
And here I am, completely healed and ready to love you for the rest of your
life.
Henry, I was going mad without you.
But when you discharged from the hospital, I asked them to let me know. I
I know. I left barely an hour ago and came straight here. And are you
cured? Of course.
Don't bore me with your questions.
Aren't you excited to see me?
Of course.
Oh, Henry.
I missed your homes.
I missed the years of work.
And your lips.
What have you done?
What have you done?
What have you done?
What have you done?
My friends, Princess Elizabeth has returned.
Let me talk to them.
I won't be long.
Master, they are already on your trail and will finish on you soon.
I think it is time for you to leave.
Thank you for your concern.
But we are finally at home.
There is nowhere else to be.
Take this.
I don't think I'll need your services anymore.
Go in peace now.
You think God will forgive us for loving each other so much?
God is love.
He understands.
And if he doesn't, he can go to hell.
Stay here.
Over there.
That's where he keeps his coffee. Coffee? That's the last place he wants
drink. The old woman dead.
That's him.
He's inside.
You
won't
kill him in that way.
Leave it to us, Father.
He won't get away with it.
do I would spare your life. Don't make me go back on my word.
You are the priest who has chased my people for so many years.
Yes.
But rest assured I didn't come to fight you.
Nor I.
I fight God. I'm not interested in his servants.
No.
You're not fighting God, my son. You're fighting yourself.
No. No, no. I fought and I killed in his name. We live and we breathe in his
name. Why would he want us to destroy his creation?
Man killed in his own name.
And you're doing it again.
That is all just very fine, Horace. God sent you here to kill me.
God sent me here to save you.
So God wants to save me now.
After he denies me the right to die for centuries.
But this is not a punishment. This is an opportunity.
Repent, Dracula, for your salvation.
She is my salvation.
But you are her damnation.
I need a little bit more time.
Oh!
Elizabeth, the curse will disappear if I die.
You will regain your freedom.
But you are my freedom.
You are my freedom, my love.
But you go, I go.
Dracula.
You believe you love her, but you expect her to sacrifice her life for you.
Your soul still belongs to God.
If you truly love her, let her return to life, and you return to God.
Dracula!
Vlad! Vlad!
Open the door!
Open the door, please!
Four hundred years ago, I asked a priest that God spare my wife.
He did not.
hear my prayer this time whether he hears it or not
only you can change destiny my son
save her then you'll be in peace for eternity
How do you help me before I change my mind?
I love you.
Yes,
sir!
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Because I love you.
Meena?
The spell is broken everything's fine now good.
Thank you
Thank you.
