THE VAMPIRES

Primer episodio
LA CABEZA CORTADA

En el peri�dico Le Mondial,

�Qui�m ha robado al
periodista Philippe Guerande?

�Y por qu�?

Mazamette, mandadero.

Los Vampiros.

Investigaciones,
Reports, Documents.

Mr Mazamette,

I inform you
that if you do not pay me

the overdue amount for the care
of your three children,

I will entrust them
to the public assistance services.

Mrs Elise, nurse

"Now, Mr Guérande,

"I am forever in your debt!”

The paper’s editor-in-chief
assigns Philippe

to a sensational
but dangerous story.

The Vampires Affair

For two months now,

Inspector Durtal had been
on the trail

of the mysterious
criminal organisation,

The Vampires.

But having no news
from Inspector Durtal,

we have reason to believe

he has fallen
in the hands of the gang.

Headless body of Inspector Durtal

in charge of the Vampires case,

found in marshes
near Saint-Clément du Cher.

Head still missing.

Philippe takes leave
of his mother

before setting off for Sologne.

"I remember your father had
a childhood friend

“living in a chateau
near Saint-Clément du Cher.”

In Sologne, at the chateau
de la Chesnaye, Doctor Nox.

The Vampires Affair

Our readers
will be interested to know

that our journalist Philippe Guérande

will continue his articles
on the Vampires in Sologne,

in the very place

where the headless body
of Inspector Durtal has been found.

Have decided to purchase
your estate at La Chesnaye.

Arrive today.

Margaret Simpson.

Remembering the friendship
between you and my father,

I will be honoured to call on you
today in the late afternoon.

Yours sincerely,

Philippe Guérande,
Journalist for Le Mondial

The next day, the fabulously
wealthy American, Miss Simpson,

arrives at the chateau.

At the same time,

Philippe goes to the courthouse
in Saint-Clément

to interview Judge Lechatellier,
the examining judge.

Philippe GUERANDE
Journalist for Le Mondial

Turned away by the judge,
Philippe is driven to La Chesnaye.

"My young friend,
I know nothing of the Vampires,

“only that everyone fears them.”

That evening, after dinner,

Philippe talks of nothing
but the Vampires.

"It’s a gold-plated cigarette case

“fitted with priceless diamonds.”

That night...

Young man,
you would be well-advised

not to get involved
with the Vampires.

It will bring you bad luck.

In the American’s room.

While Philippe is lost
in sleep filled with nightmares...

The next day.

Mrs Simpson’s cigarette case!

Shocked, the American screams:

“I've been robbed!
All my jewels and money gone!”

Philippe has disappeared.

At the examining judge’s.

Doctor Nox

The search.

The chief of police
recognises the head:

Inspector Durtal’s!

The examining judge prepares
to arrest Doctor Nox.

Mrs Simpson is dead!
Doctor Nox has disappeared!

The real Dr Nox,
whose identity I assumed,

is dead, murdered six months ago.

Never cross my path again...

I am the Vampire.

That night, after wandering
across the city’s rooftops,

the Vampire vanished
into darkness.
