Previously on "The House of Van Helsing".

Are you telling me that one of these things killed my mom?

Honestly, I don't know.

I mean, your mother's cancer could have been completely,

you know, natural causes, impossible to determine.

What's he doing in there?

Well, this is a home for the elderly and the sick.

He's comforting her.

There's a bunch of old folks here.

Since we've been here, I've only seen him go into that room.

When you say the tarnished, do you mean

like the mechanic that she used Enure charm on?

Something far more sinister.

What is this, what's going on?

Your pal here, he's been lying to us, Cody.

Which is unfortunate, because we don't take kindly to liars.

I didn't exactly lie, I just didn't tell the whole truth.

That's all.

That's lying by omission.

I knew there was something off about you.

- Hey. - Oh, come on.

Our childhood friend just bumps into Cody

on the other side of the world by pure coincidence?

There is no such thing as coincidence.

Well, you better get to talking and fast,

because I was just about to put the shovels away,

and if we have to go out and dig another grave,

I don't want any wasted effort.

Skip, what's this all about?

Okay I, I-I didn't just happen to bump into you

in St. Martin Cody, I'm sorry.

- Wait, what? - I knew it.

I was commissioned to keep watch over you.

Commissioned to keep watch, by who?

- By your mom. - What?

That makes no sense.

Why would she, why would she hire you and and how?

She reached out, pressed me into service,

because I'm a sentinel just like you two.

It's the reason my mom and yours

were so close when we were kids.

You're a sentinel, right.

Okay let's hear it, what can you do?

I caught him in John's room doing something quite odd.

What'd you do to her?

Nothing, nothing, I swear.

I-I, I was just, I'm an ompath.

- A what? - An object empath, really?

I found out a few years ago, I can sense the histories

of items and places by touching them.

And breathing on them, apparently.

- Well yeah, that too. - I, I don't understand.

That's why I went to Bathory's tomb that night,

to get a sense of what went on there.

That, and to do what I was commissioned to do,

to keep an eye on Cody.

What I saw was that somebody lured another mechanic,

maybe a friend or associate

of the guy who attacked us the other night,

lured him into the tomb and killed him.

Used the blood in some ritual to bring Bathory back.

Well if that's true, that explains how it all happened.

If that's true.

Hold on a minute, you were hired to follow me,

to take care of me, that makes no sense.

I was the one who had to make sure

you didn't wander off into the street

drunk on multiple occasions.

Actually, I wasn't even really drunk most of the time.

It was for show, sorry dude.

Wow.

You know what? I'm not even mad, that was all acting?

That's some commitment mate, bravo.

No, I don't believe you.

There's no way that, that Mom would've kept this from me.

She trusted me, he's lying.

This is the truth, I swear.

There is one way for you to find out for certain.

I know it's a lot to ask, and I know you don't understand,

but you've got to trust me Cody, okay?

Are you sure this just isn't the the meds talking?

I'm gonna miss you my boy, so much.

I'm gonna miss you too, Mom.

I'm sorry, this is just all so (sniffing) overwhelming.

Not a thing any of us could do about it.

You better get going, your flight is in just a few hours.

You are going to tell me what this is all about, right?

I promise, you'll know the whole story very soon.

I love you, now go on.

I love you, Mom.

I love you too.

You can come out.

I'm sorry it has to be this way, Mrs. Powell.

You're all grown up now Skip, you can call me Katherine.

Here's the payment and travel information.

I booked him on a 7:00 flight to San Juan.

He's stubborn as ever,

but I am certain he'll go along with this.

He does love the beach.

He's in good hands, Katherine.

I will give this my all, that I can promise.

Thank you, love.

Carrie, you okay?

Get back, get back, give her some air.

It's okay kiddo, you didn't pass out at least.

Why would she, why would she keep that from me?

Carrie it's okay, just take it easy.

Why don't you just- - You, all of you,

just stay away from me.

Caroline, wait a minute, where are you going?

Carrie?

- Where is she? - I, what is that?

- Uh-oh. - That's not good.

No, sure as hell ain't.

Hey, she went this way.

Look, she went out the back gate towards the forest.

What is wrong with that girl?

I've been asking that question my whole life.

I've gotta go after her.

No Cody don't, you don't know these woods.

I'm not going to be searching for both of you.

Abraham, we've got to go and find her.

The longer she's out there, the more susceptible

she is to Bathory's influence.

My shield is strong enough, but of course it does nothing

beyond stage of the property.

I know Izzy, I know, but still.

We'll go, Mother and I.

We believe that Bathory can only detect

those belonging to your bloodline, correct?

That does not include us.

We can go and find Caroline more safely.

You better get some protection,

and I don't mean for bears and wolves.

Cody man, will you please stop staring at me like that?

I've already told you everything, I said I was sorry.

It's just (scoffing), you were like hired

to be my babysitter, for months.

I had no bloody idea.

It was more like bodyguard.

How much did she pay you?

You know what? I don't even wanna know.

Were you even really our childhood friend,

or was that also a lie?

Of course we were friends.

Remember all the mischief we used to get into,

the three of us?

Remember pulling up Ms. King's flowers

because she gave out apples on Halloween?

We were kids, I wasn't faking that.

Although our parents did move us into the neighborhood

because of your mother, if I remember correctly.

Wow, when you realize

everyone was hiding something,

no wonder Caroline stormed out.

I hope she's okay. - Me too, bro.

- Look. - Yes, that's right.

It seems I taught you well, Elena.

Yes, I believe you did,

but there's still much to learn.

Also, this girl leaves a trail

like a bear in a rose garden, look.

Good, that's her.

Be careful, wait Elena.

What is it?

You know the rumors that Hoia-Baciu is one

of the most haunted places known to our people,

you remember the story?

Grandfather told me that many centuries ago,

a tribe of Romany were accused

of crimes they did not commit.

Their accuser rounded up our ancestors in this forest,

and took them to a clearing,

and burned every single one of them.

Yes, and their spirits remain tied to this dark place.

Sorrowful, vengeful.

Are you afraid?

Fear is natural, fear keeps us alert, you?

But this is the way Caroline went.

So we must, right? - Go.

Listen up fellas, no more damn secrets, you dig?

Keep this all up, we're all gonna be screwed.

Yes sir, understood.

They're gonna find her, right?

It's almost pitch black out there.

There's no one more capable of matters like this

than Izabella, if that's any solace.

I'll be with my wife.

Okay, wait.

Did he just say he has a wife, here?

So much for no more damn secrets, huh?

What is it, what do you see?

Mother, are you okay?

I feel them, the spirits of our people.

So much sadness.

They know we are not evil, they know we're their kin.

I fear someone else is out here.

Someone else is following Caroline.

Hurry up, let's go.

Hello, who's that?

Do you speak English, hello?

Stay back, stay back, I mean it.

Keep away from me.

Jody? No, Jody?

- Caroline! - Caroline, get down!

Caroline here, close in, don't let them divide us.

There's too many of them.

What do we do now?

- What just happened? - No time to explain.

Let's get out of here.

You don't kill a Romany

by cutting him into 10 pieces, this will only make 10 more.

Caroline, thank God you're okay.

Yeah, only just, it's my own stupid fault.

I shouldn't have stormed off like that.

These guys saved me.

You did a pretty good job yourself.

You all look like you've seen a ghost.

Yeah, and worse.

Look, I'm sorry about earlier.

I didn't know, I-I didn't mean to-

No, I'm sorry for walking off into the forest

on my own, like a lunatic.

I think I just got a bit overwhelmed,

and then of course I got even more overwhelmed.

Ah, getting yourself into trouble?

I know the problem well.

Where is Abe?

- Izabella? - Oh, Abraham.

It was just seeing our mom like that again,

I wasn't ready for how real that felt.

It was like I could feel

everything that she was feeling, all of that pain, sadness.

That and the fact that so many people

have kept so many things from me.

It's like everyone I ever trusted, I just feel betrayed.

Same here, I never knew any of this stuff.

There are such things as false truths and honest lies.

Sometimes we, sometimes we do or say things

to protect the ones that we love, to help them.

I'm gonna go see if Abe and Izabella need my help.

You want me to go with you?

You okay?

Yeah, just I feel bad, poor Abe.

Yeah, I had no idea that was his wife.

Now she's gone, poor bloke.

Thank you, Izzy.

You did well by her, Abe.

I held onto her for too long.

You gave her memories every day,

even when her mind couldn't recall on its own.

You gave her love, you gave her music.

What are you doing with that?

I'm gonna bury it with her.

I should have gotten rid of it long ago.

I could never understand why you didn't.

- You know, tonight I almost- - Heaven forbid.

I only thought about it.

Are you sure you weren't followed back here?

No, we took the Saint Dominic Trail back

to throw off any would-be pursuers.

Are you ready? I'll tell the others it's time, okay.

She gave the best years of her life

to give me the best years of my life,

and I'll never forget those years

for as long as mine stretch out ahead of me.

It is as you expected, Your Grace.

Of course it is, Abraham Van Helsing

and his little band of misfits.

That fool made a mistake in keeping that girl here.

I could recognize her scent anywhere

after that episode back at the garage.

She smells of fear and uncertainty.

She's emotional and impulsive,

and she might be just what we need.

All right folks, it's time to get back to work.

We all really have to knuckle down and give it 110%

to get ourselves in tiptop shape.

And then when we're battle ready,

we're gonna engage the enemy.

We're gonna take it out there and bring the fight to her,

and send her back to the oblivion where she belongs.

Okay? Let's go, let's get this show on the road.

Hah, do those superstitious gypsy hags

really think that they can foil Elizabeth Bathory,

with their pitiful magic tricks?

Andre, we'll need to get more followers.

Yes.

These poor wretched fools won't know what hit them.

Then we'll take possession of the oh-so-treasured artifact.

I know it's in there somewhere.

One, two, three, four, one, two, three, four.

Up, one, two, three.

All right gang, the last few days have been a blast.

Quite literally for some of you.

This is it, you've all worked so hard

and you're all more than ready,

whether it feels like it or not.

We've gotta get Bathory before she gets us.

I've been keeping tabs on some weird happenings

in the local news, and I've narrowed down

her whereabouts to a certain area.

This weekend, Elena and Izzy,

they're gonna go sniff Bathory out.

Until then, let's relax and let's take our time.

You've earned it.

Here's to your commitment and your dedication

to preparing for our mission.

Here's to our mission, for ridding the world

of this truly evil entity.

- Amen to that. - Amen.

Here, here.

Whoo, I think I'm getting used to this stuff.

Nothing in the news about any new cemetery incidents.

Not since Brazov.

I'm guessing those are the revenants

you and your ancestral spirits ran into in the forest.

No doubt.

I'll keep an eye out, we all will.

Something will turn up.

You think it's new?

- I think so. - That's fake news, brother.

And it was fashioned right here

by repurposing a banana hauler.

- Wow. - What a beautiful day

to go skiing.

Andre, I changed my mind.

That in-commodious contraption is getting on my nerves.

Please just make it-

- Hundreds of casualties- - A tad more-

- With multiple fatalities. - Wait, what was that?

Go back, wait, th-there. - Making this the worst

residential building collapse- - Let me see.

In Europe in over 60 years.

The collapse occurred just weeks after

a routine safety inspection revealed that the structure

was out of compliance with building codes,

and in violation of a number of safety regulations.

Authorities will conduct an immediate investigation,

to determine who may be liable for criminal prosecution.

It was an accident waiting to happen,

according to one official. - You know what this means,

don't you, my fiendish friend?

- Yes Your Grace- - The few survivors-

- I think I do. - Were taken

to Gina Maria Hospital.

Many were subsequently pronounced

dead on arrival, we're told.

The tragedy compounded by the large number

of young people killed in this incident.

Ready the transport, serendipity strikes.

- Where are you going? - Where is the morgue?

That way, but it's closed.

You can't go there.

Oh Andre, have you ever seen anything so beautiful?

Yes, this will do, this will do nicely.

What about this one?

This could prove to be quite useful since,

Abe, what is it?

I hope we're up to this, Izzy.

It's been a long time since we faced such an enemy.

We saw what she was capable of at that auto shop,

and at was that half-strength max.

I'm not so sure about this.

There are many more of us than there are of her.

Even if she can raise more undead revenants,

those mindless, vacant sleepwalkers

are easily dispatched.

We can defeat them.

We have the strength, we have the tools.

I know you're right, but I've seen her in action.

I know what she's capable of.

I'm not gonna make the same mistake

of underestimating her again.

So, do we have a game plan?

Izabella and Elena are gonna set out

to find where she's hiding at first light tomorrow.

Some goat farmers went missing a few days ago

under very suspicious circumstances.

Once they find her hideout, we form up and we lure her out.

I have a couple ideas how to do that.

And then we put our training into practice,

and we cut her down to size.

We may not be able to take Bathory out completely,

but between our hardware and our abilities,

we're certainly gonna make her

a lot less harmful than she is now.

If we are careful enough,

she won't even know we're coming.

And the world is spared one more truly heinous devil

that they didn't even know existed, all thanks to us.

Well, I think I can speak for us all.

We're ready to fight. - Hell yeah.

Yes we are, and still we must continue the training.

Without wood, fire cannot keep burning.

- Guys, look. - What is that?

That's something Alan made.

We were never able to turn it on.

I know what that is, I've seen that before.

And you don't turn it on, it's always on.

What is that?

Is it coming from upstairs?

That is not from inside the house.

We've got company.

It's her.

All right, game on.

- Oh my God. - She's here.

That's right, I'm here.

I'd say that it was to crash your little party,

but instead it's to thank, you Abraham Van Helsing,

for sending me an engraved invitation.

Oh, and I have a few more surprises.

What are we gonna do?

What we've been training to do,

we're gonna kick that wicked witch's behind,

and obliterate her friends, period.

From this world you departed and rot in a hole,

from the depths of hell I summon your soul.

In the ground you lie, feeding worms and flies.

Now I awaken your flesh and command you to rise.

Rise, rise, rise.

She cannot get through the barrier.

What's that, gypsy woman?

Are you telling me that I'm suddenly uninvited?

That's too bad because I brought more guests.

I may not be able to get through

your pathetic impediment at this moment,

but with a little help from my friends,

we may be in for a real soiree after all.

What in the ever-living hell?

I think you mean unliving hell.

- Ah. - Izzy.

Do you think it'll hold?

It will, at least for a little while.

There's so many of them.

Listen, it's gonna get real ugly, real quick.

This fight came earlier than expected and not on our terms.

Always remember, the enemy gets a vote.

So get ready to defend yourselves

and this house, if the barrier falls.

Oh my God, guys, is that the mechanic?

Uh-oh, I've got an unfinished business.

- Abe? - Huh?

Oh, you gotta be kidding me.

Give me that.

Skip, he's already dead.

No.

- No, Abe. - No, Jode.

- It's not her. - No!

Don't!

What's the matter, Van Helsing?

Didn't fancy a little reunion with the missus?

Are you okay?

No, I'm not okay.
