Paging Nurse Lawson.

Satisfactory patient now critical.

I'm nervous, aren't I, Irene?

Relax, Richard.

Your sleepless nights will soon be over.

Irene, we've been expecting you.

Arthur. Dearest Arthur.

Sybil. So nice to see you, honey.

And this must be your nephew, Richard. Yes, it is.

Henry, show Mr.

Renfield to the room.

Arthur, it's been so long. You look marvelous.

Well, I've been trying to take care of myself since my wife died.

What a way to learn about yourself.

Yes, traumas do have ways of affecting one.

Arthur, I'm worried about Richard.

He's the only family I have, and I feel so responsible.

Look, don't worry about a thing. My friend and former teacher, Van Helsing,

Professor Van Helsing, is on his way here to do some research with me.

And he's already been informed of Richard's condition.

I hope he can help.

I can't take the pressure any longer.

Look, why don't you just relax now? Sybil will show you to your room. You

bathe or whatever you want, and just fill it home.

Thank you, Arthur. We'll talk later.

Come, my dear.

Nurse Lawson to the morgue.

Oh, another thing, and tell Nurse Lawson to see me in my study immediately.

Dickie!

I must go to Transylvania.

I got a great deal on an old castle.

When shall you return, Daddy?

In a fortnight. A fortnight. A fortnight.

Or as soon as escrow closes.

Richard! Father?

Richard.

Richard. Father!

Wait for me!

Wait!

Son!

Master! Master, I'm here!

You're not my daddy.

I am Bradford.

I bid you welcome.

Listen

to them.

Children of the night.

What music they make.

Mr. Enfield.

How do you know my name?

Your father was my servant, as you shall be.

Once more my blood has called to yours.

The blood is the life, Mr.

Enfield.

The blood is the life!

The blood is the life!

I'm yours for eternity!

Mark,

bring me the straitjacket now.

Mark, just lock him up straight.

Don't put that on me.

Bring me the straitjacket. Get the straitjacket. Let it out.

Let it out. Get it on him. Don't put that on me.

All right, take him off.

That's the sewer lock.

Wanted to come out for my life? I'll explain.

I can't thank you enough for this visit.

John, I'm so happy to see you.

Does this kind of thing happen all the time?

Don't worry.

I'll protect you.

I can never repay you, Van Helsing, for this visit.

Is that the patient I come to see? Yes, it is. And I'll tell you more about him

later.

I've missed you so much. Yeah.

Is everything okay?

I don't know. It's the same thing.

Lucy, are you serious?

I can't get you out of my mind.

I can't take my eyes off of you.

I'm afraid I love you.

Be afraid.

i've never told anybody that before it scares me

Hello, sir.

I didn't know you played piano, Jarvis. I don't, sir.

I was trying to play a song.

I'll tell you what.

I'll play piano.

And you sing.

Okay. What would you like to sing?

You know the song Swing No Sweet Chariot?

Swing

Sweet chariot, coming for to carry

me home.

Swing low, sweet chariot,

coming for to carry me home.

Well, if you get there before I do,

Coming for to carry me home.

Till all of my friends I'm coming to.

Coming for to carry me home.

Swing.

to carry me.

I have done your bidding, master.

Lucy was educated in the family barn.

You were correct.

Lucy is the slut.

Harker is the homo. And Mina is a virgin.

Just like me.

Is Dr.

Seward at home?

Yes, sir. Come right in. Thank you.

Ah, Dr. Seward.

Yes? I am Count Dracula.

I have just taken Calphex Abbey.

Oh, so you'll be our new neighbor.

It's a nice to make your acquaintance. Thank you.

Yeah, that place has been deserted for a long time.

What a resemblance to Richard's father.

I have a surprise for everyone.

We have a new neighbor.

I'd like everyone to meet Count Dracula.

I'd like you to meet my niece, Mina.

Hello.

Her fiance, Jonathan Harker.

Irene Renfield, an old family friend.

One of my new interns, Dr. Bradley.

Lucy Webster, Mina's college friend.

And of course, my dear sister Sybil.

Count.

The Count has just taken Carfax Abbey.

How charming.

It'll be a relief to see some light in that dismal old place.

Would you all excuse me, please? I have a telephone call.

It looks to me like the Abbey could use some repairs.

I shall do very little.

It reminds me of my home in Transylvania.

It reminds me of that poem from school.

The walls around were bare.

As if the dead were there.

That's a good toast, Lizzie.

There's more.

Let's cry.

For the next to die.

Oh, Lucy, come on. Never mind the rest of it.

To die.

To be really dead.

That must be glory.

Why count?

There are far worse things awaiting man than death.

It reminds me of the broken embattlements of my castle.

Oh, God, Lucy.

Daddy, I'm confused.

I've got a hard -on.

You are a romantic.

Well, you may laugh, but I find him fascinating.

and i think that you could use someone a little more normal oh like your john

well like dr bradley yeah he's sweet

but i like the more distinguished type the more distinguished type will get you

in trouble

Daddy, I need you.

Why Lucy?

Play with me.

Come right on in.

As I was saying, I was making tremendous progress here at the sanitarium until,

one by one, they all reverted back to their original, even worse than their

original condition.

Mr.

Renfield, you've seen before.

Now, his situation is similar to the patients that were here, but he just

arrived.

You have preferred recreation for the patients? Of course.

Also, they're all taking on different roles.

Cowboys? Was this how the West was won?

Yes.

She's eight years old again.

But the similarities are, they're...

Sexual cravings. Almost in a cannibalistic type of way.

But, Dr. Surratt, we all have sexual cravings. Yes.

And this cowboy wants to play his guitar and fornicate with everything that's

around him. Holes in the wall, straw, doesn't matter. No matter where to find

hole.

And also two lesions, marks, that they all have.

So I'm very puzzled by it, especially since the progress I was making.

I have seen this before in a kennel in Germany.

What a fucking coy.

This

is

very drastic.

We had him out of those clothes, smoking a pipe, reading books. Now he's worse

than when he came here.

What was in the pipe?

I suggest one water enemas.

Okay.

Now, I'll let you look at their reports

in detail.

There's your chart. Diamond close of 99 .9 % of all human ills is crowning

constipation. But, Professor... This is a real madhouse.

Yes.

Arthur, break out the cocaine.

Yes.

Steady, Dr. Bradley.

Hold back the tears.

And don't be a crybaby.

Dr. Bradley, it will be okay.

Dr. Seward.

Yes. When did Miss Webster have the last transfusion?

About four hours ago.

Hmm. The mouth and eyes are bloodless.

A natural lot of blood.

Spongy gums.

Crabs.

On the breast, two marks.

Hmm.

Blatt tests an order.

Read this.

Yes, Professor.

That's H31.

I have a theory.

We are dealing with the undead vampire.

Nosferatu. Nosferatu?

The vampire attacks the body and leaves two marks.

Red with white circles.

I just have analyzed Renfield's blood.

The man is obsessed.

He thinks he has to devour living things.

But, Professor, modern science doesn't admit to such superstitions.

Superstitions of yesterday,

It's the scientific reality of today.

The man, Renfield, escaped from his room.

Now, where did he go?

Mr.

Renfield.

You are looking much, much better.

Take your jacket off.

I'm here to help you.

Thanks. I'm very grateful.

Maybe you've got the answer yourself.

Now, now, Renfield.

Oh, Dr. Seward, send me away from this place.

Send me far away.

Why would you like to leave?

My cries at night, they might disturb Miss Mina.

Yes. They might give her terrible nightmares, Professor Van Helsing.

Bad dreams.

A voice?

I've heard them howl the night before.

Renfield thinks they're talking to him, but he's crazy.

I hardly think a wolf would be this near.

I might have known.

We know why the wolves talk, and we know how to stop them.

You know too much to live by, Helsing.

That's enough.

That's all we'll get out of him today. Take him away, Henry.

Let's go, liar.

I'm warning you, Dr. Stewart. You send me away from this place, or you must

answer to what will happen to Miss Mina. Son of a bitch, and so is that Nazi

fuck! Nazi. What was the herb that excited him so?

Wolf, ma 'am. The natives use it to protect themselves against vampires.

And Renfield was really excited by that.

Watch him closely day and night.

I'd put that new nut in his room.

Please do not refer to them as nuts.

Now, before you check on the rest of the patients downstairs, see if Mrs.

Renfield needs anything.

Yes, sir.

Looks like you were expecting me.

The doc sent me in here to see if I could do it for you.

Richard. How is Richard?

Oh, the nut. I put him in his room.

By himself?

You can't put him by himself. He has nightmares.

Every night he has nightmares.

Somebody's got to be there to help him. He has nightmares.

You've got to take care of him. He has nightmares, lady. He's better off by

himself. He won't wake anybody.

I've been with him every night. I haven't had any sleep either. You've got

take care of him. Will the doctor help him?

Will he? How the hell do I know?

Help me.

I haven't slept either. I can't stand the pressure anymore.

You want help, huh?

I need something to sleep. I've got to help, Richard. I've got to help myself.

You want help?

You want help?

Yes, I do.

I'm beginning to have them myself.

I need to sleep. I need to sleep.

Get her. Get her.

Get her.

Get her. Get her.

Henry, you are a slob.

You are coming back, aren't you?

Oh, the things we do for money.

You know, people in town are afraid of him.

Really worried for some reason.

Afraid why?

I don't know. Maybe it's because he's odd.

Different, you know?

No, I don't know.

I find him very charming, polite.

Something you can learn from him.

Yeah, maybe you're right.

But you know, you never see him out in the daytime.

Only at night.

What do you think about that?

Nothing.

And so it is with the doctor prescribed death. We again hope to keep you in...

Suspense.

You know, the townspeople won't even work at the Cal FAC estate.

Why?

Say, it's haunted.

So?

So if I catch you messing around with any of the ladies around here, I'm going

to give him a frontal lobotomy.

For free.

Professor Antonio Basile has a theory, but let him tell you about it.

As a psychologist, I have worked out a theory.

A theory I know to be sound.

I contend that a person who has decided to kill himself can very easily be

turned from this desire to the desire of taking the life of another.

I can prove my theory.

And if necessary...

That is exactly what I will do.

As he stands against the railing in the fog, a figure appears a few feet beyond

and stops.

A sudden gesture prepares to leap.

Don't do it! Wait a minute!

Listen. Huh?

That's very silly.

Let go of me!

Oh, no.

I wouldn't do that.

I don't need you.

Don't you know this is against the law?

You're not an officer.

You can't stop me. It's 500 feet to those tracks below.

Hard steel rails.

Don't believe what they all tell you about not being conscious of what

You'd know.

People don't die instantly.

Let loose.

They lie in agony for minutes and sometimes for an hour. It's a horrible

I know.

How do you know? I'm a doctor.

Doctor? Yes.

I can tell you much simpler ways. Much less painful ways and quicker.

You're a nice young girl.

An intelligent girl.

You wouldn't want it to happen this way.

Well, here we are.

Come in, please.

You're not afraid of me?

Afraid. In my frame of mind.

What could I lose?

Suppose I told you that I really brought you here to kill you.

Kill me?

You know, you're a very pretty girl, don't you?

Yeah.

That doesn't always mean so.

The right man might.

That's what I thought.

But I found out it didn't mean a thing. Ah.

Then it was because of a man.

I knew it. Really?

How did you guess? I'm a student of psychology. I'm Professor Antonio

You are her only means of support?

Yes. And you intend to kill yourself? Yes.

That's being selfish, isn't it? Selfish?

Yes. You are concentrating solely on self. You think so?

What else?

The first law of human nature is self -preservation, right?

I suppose so.

Were you married?

I never seemed to find time to get around marriage.

My theory is going to be proved tonight.

A half hour ago, they found her body beneath Suicide Bridge.

Well, Professor, your perfect crime has failed.

Failed? Yes, failed. Wonderful setup on paper, but your theory backfired, and

you're up for murder.

But I didn't kill her. But you planned it, and you're as guilty as Gladys.

paid her penalty. Now it's your turn.

No. No.

I won't. I won't be hanged. Never!

And now the doctor lies on the sidewalk 17 stories below.

Yes, master.

No, master.

Please don't ask me to do that.

Don't.

Not her.

Please don't.

Please, I'm the one, Master.

Why not me?

Use me!

I lay in bed for quite a while reading, and just as I was falling

asleep, I heard the dogs barking.

And when the dream began, it seemed as though the whole room filled with mist.

It was thick.

I could just see the light by my bed, like a spark in the fog.

And then I saw two red eyes staring down at me.

And then this white, livid face came down out of the fog.

And I could feel its breath on my face.

And then it glimpsed.

And John, it... It was only a dream.

I felt so weak.

It seemed as if all the life had been drained out of me.

Mina, you were only dreaming.

Mina, forget about those dreams.

Was there any reason it might have caused that dream, Mina?

No.

Professor, there's something she's not telling us.

Where did you say the lips touched you?

Nurse, would you go down and check on Dr. Stoker's condition, please?

I'll get Dr.

Bradley to go down. I have a few things... I'm the one who's running the

sanitarium, not you!

Go down and check on Dr. Stoker's condition and take Henry with you!

Doc Stoker's in pretty bad shape, but you'll be able to take care of him with

your special handling.

Oh, don't worry. I think I can handle him.

I know that's awesome.

How are you, Dr. Stoker?

Fine, thank you.

You can go now. I think I can handle it from here.

Your party.

How are you feeling today?

Oh, fine. My penis hurts a little. Let me see those nasty bite marks.

Oh, these look painful.

Oh, they really are, and I can't even scratch them. They itch, too.

Why don't you just let one hand loose so I can be more comfortable and maybe

scratch and move.

Okay, just one arm. I'll trust you.

I'm not really, uh... I'm not really crazy, you know. I just, uh... I went

crazy when that girl bit me.

I'm fine, thank you.

Mine.

Mine.

All mine.

No!

No!

Roar!

You're not.

Dearest sister, why was Count Dracula invited for tea last night?

Why shouldn't Count Dracula have been invited for tea last night, Arthur?

Because I don't like the effect he has on Mina.

But any decisions involving the sanitarium do not make unless you

first. I mean, for God's sake, what is going on around here? All this talk

vampires.

My dad doesn't listen to me anymore. My best intern, Dr.

Harker, Dr.

Stoker, has been ending up like all my other patients.

I'm going to lose my license, and the whole thing is going to fall apart.

I can't take it anymore.

I mean, what am I going to do?

I mean, I worked so hard at this place. Now, look, I can't. I can't. I don't

want to lose my sanitarium. You know I don't want to lose it. You know I don't

want to lose it. Arthur, calm down.

I just don't want to do it. I can't. I can't do this. This is everything I want

for all my life.

Arthur. Look at me, Arthur.

Arthur.

Arthur.

Now, Arthur.

Come now.

Arthur.

Arthur.

Remember this?

Remember how you liked this?

This is what you like.

It could have been your cock.

Mother gave it to me.

I want to stick it in.

You want to put it in my mouth? Yes.

Ugh!

it from the system.

Do you hear me, Arthur?

Yes.

Now, Arthur, now that we're feeling better, and I hope we're feeling better,

must pull ourselves together.

We've got a lot of work to do.

Yes.

Patients that need to be tended to.

And we'll hear no more static about Count Dracula. Of course.

Just so that's understood.

Arthur is on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

A real schmuck.

Is Dr.

Seward at home?

Yes, sir. Come in. Thank you. Yes, I advise Mrs. Renfield to return home. Dr.

Seward. Yes. You have your damn hands free.

Oh,

come. Good evening.

Good evening.

Come, Dracula.

Professor Van Helsing.

My pleasure.

Van Helsing.

We know the name, even in...

You're most kind, Count.

Count Arthur told us it would be most generous of Arthur to help out by giving

Nina blood.

Well, of course I would like to help in any way that I could.

Would you like to do it now or later?

Now would be fine.

Excuse me.

Tell me, Count, is this your first transfusion?

Yes, and I am a little squeamish about giving blood.

Oh, no reason to be squeamish, I assure you. Perhaps you will permit me to gaze

into your charming eyes while you insert the needle.

Attention, Dr. Sybil Seward. Your radio show whips the women. It is being

plugged into the lab.

Last year, women from countless cities admitted to a perplexing problem.

How could they continue functioning in politics, anti -war, and civil rights

when the men in these assemblies treated them like second -class citizens?

Would they ever be offered more than a high school education and a course in

dictation? Would they ever be allowed to do more than answer the phone, type

letters, lick stamps, lick envelopes, and lick labels?

Let's face facts, girls.

A woman, even a relatively sexually liberated one, often finds it hard to

approach a man sexually the way a man can approach her.

How many times... Have you heard?

He's not a wham, bam, thank you man.

He just doesn't know what it takes to bring me to orgasm.

Why don't I tell him how? Or show him?

Because I'm afraid.

Yes, afraid, girls. Will make him feel less a man.

After all, I don't require an orgasm to enjoy the whole sensuality of the

experience. Oh, but it sure is nice.

Help me!

Help me!

Help me! I found her! Help me! I found her!

Come on, get it out!

Miss... Miss... Miss... Miss... Miss... Miss... Miss... Miss... Miss... Miss...

Miss... Miss... Miss... Miss... Miss...

Be brave.

I will help you.

Tell me what I have to do.

You shouldn't take.

You have to be driven into her heart.

Take it in your right hand and strike in God's name.

I can't.

I know how you feel about it, but you must have courage.

I have to leave you alone now.

We are too soon old, too late smart.

Bye.

Why, John.

I had the most frightful dream last night.

Mina, dear, I hope you're not taking my story seriously.

Stories?

Yes, I've been trying to entertain Miss Mina with stories of my country. I

can imagine.

John, that's no way to speak to our guest.

No, please.

Perhaps I should be taking my leave now.

May I call later to inquire how you are doing?

Yes. Thank you.

For you, Cole.

You can be helpful, Count.

Yes, of course. I would be happy to.

The other evening, I stumbled on a most amazing thing.

Forgive me.

I dislike mirrors.

One hell thing will explain.

For one who has lived not even a single lifetime, you're a wise man,

Doctor.

Doctor, did you see what he looked like when he walked out of here?

He looked like a wild animal.

Or a wolf.

A wolf?

Sometimes it takes the form of wolves or bats.

What are you talking about?

Dracula.

What does Dracula have to do with wolves or bats?

Dracula is our vampire.

Professor, that's something that I would expect one of our patients here in the

clinic to say.

The strength of the vampire is that people do not believe in him.

Not her again.

What about our game of rummy?

Please don't take my lizard away from me. Please, Henry, don't.

Oh, Henry, oh.

Aren't you ashamed of yourself?

Aren't moths good enough for you?

Moths?

Moths?

Poor puny little things.

Who wants to eat moths?

You do, madman.

Not when I can get nice, juicy toads and lizards.

Okay, okay.

As far as I'm concerned, you can eat shit.

You bastard!

You're not going to die.

You're going to live.

Don't touch me, John.

Don't even try to kiss me again. Why?

You tell him.

You make him understand.

I can't.

It's all over, John.

Our love.

Our love together.

I love you.

But I can't help what's going on.

It is your fault, Professor. You are driving her crazy.

The sun goes down.

Another night will come.

That you should be afraid of.

I don't care. I'm taking her out of here tonight anyway.

Attention.

Nurse Lawson to cab. Bring your enema kit.

Well,

hello, Mr. Harker.

How are you?

I'm not good.

Things aren't going well between me and I at all.

Well, what's your problem?

Can you imagine what it would be like to be engaged to a virgin for three years?

No, Mr. Harker, I don't think I could.

Sometimes I feel like I belong in that sanitarium myself. I get so frustrated.

Well, Jonathan, I know just what to prescribe for you.

Come on.

You want me to go in there?

In here. I'm the nurse. Go in. Go on.

Uh... Do you know what you're doing here? Oh, yes, Mr. Harker. I know

what I'm doing.

Let's get comfortable.

I want you to promise me something no one finds out about this.

Oh, Jonathan.

You have my...

professional confidence that no one will find out.

Relax,

Parker. For tonight, no one will relax.

I'm going to make you feel much better.

Beautiful woman.

You're rapidly making me forget all my troubles.

Oh, my gosh. Meena ever found out about this?

Meena won't find out.

Do you remember?

Dracula cast no reflection in the mirror.

Yes.

And the two boxes of earth were delivered to the abbey, and knowing that

vampire must rest by day in native soil.

I'm convinced that this Dracula is no legend, but an undead creature

whose life has been unnaturally prolonged.

Well, Dr. Seward, how about it? Is knitting going to be able to come with

not?

Mr. Harker, if you take her away from our protection, you might kill her.

Jonathan, please.

Please be patient.

I know you're in love with her.

But she's my niece, and I must do what I think is best.

Mr. Harker, I have devoted my life to the study of many strange things.

Little known facts that perhaps the world sped off not knowing.

All I want is to get Mina away from all this.

Dracula came here to get his love, his queen.

You mean Mina?

Yes, my friend.

It involves sexual penetration.

Mixing kissy men with her blood.

Are you sure?

Tonight, Dracula will attempt this ritual.

Not with my Mina. I won't let him. In order to save Mina now, we

must use her as a trap.

That's how we will beat him.

I don't understand.

A vampire cannot look at blinding sun, or he would die.

Why must Mina be the one?

It's her only hope.

You schmuck.

Well, I am going to protect my Mina.

Attention.

Attention, this is an emergency.

Bats have been spotted in Ward A.

Please put hairnets on all the patients.

Why are you looking at me so strangely?

I don't know. You changed.

You're still beautiful.

So I am.

Yep. But I was very worried about you.

Oh, look at the stars, John.

The stars are beautiful.

What's wrong?

Nothing's wrong.

Nothing's wrong at all.

I love the night.

You know, it's... It's the only time I feel really alive.

You've always told me that the night made you afraid.

Oh, it's that big, great bat.

Go in the house. The man will get in your hair.

Go on.

Yes, ma 'am.

I promise.

What?

I want... What did you say?

Nothing. What did you say?

Nothing. Nothing.

The police can't help us.

Renfield, come in here!

Renfield!

What are you doing there?

Isn't this a strange conversation for men who aren't crazy?

Did you hear what we were saying?

Yes, I heard something.

Enough.

Be guided by what he says.

It's your only hope.

It's her only hope.

I begged you to send me away, but you wouldn't. Now it's happened again. It's

too late.

What are you talking about?

Take her away from here before you lose her to him.

What do you have to do with Dracula?

came and stood before me in the moonlight.

And he promised me things, not in words, but by doing them,

by making them happen.

A great red mist spread over the lawn, coming on like a flame of fire.

Then he parted it, and I could see that there were thousands of rats,

with their eyes blazing red, like his only smaller.

And he held up his hand, and they all stopped.

And I thought he seemed to be saying, rats, rats,

rats, thousands, millions of them,

all red blood, all...

will I give you if you will obey me.

Henry, would you get in here?

What does he want you to do?

That which has already been done.

That's nuts.

Pour up his bars like paper.

Dracula is in the house.

In the house?

It's time we are ready for him.

I'll show you where to put Mr. Renfield, where he won't escape this time. Come

with me, dear moth eater. We'll show you who's the moth eater.

I wonder what he's got up his bloody cape.

I sure could use cognac.

Oh, the Quaalude.

You should go back to your own country.

I am going to stay here where I am needed.

You are too late.

My blood is mixed with Mina's. I will not only save Mina's soul, but her life.

It can only be done if she dies by day.

I shall see she dies by night.

I will see that Carlfix's army is torn down.

Stone by stone, I will find your box and drive a stake through your heart.

have a strong will, Van Helsing.

Wolfbane.

Stronger than Wolfbane. Count.

Alarm.

Renfield is safely put away.

I don't think we'll... What's the matter?

Dracula was just here.

He tried to kill me.

We must protect Mina.

Van Helsing, oh, my God.

What is this? Jesus Christ!

We must release Renfield.

We have no other choice.

So he'll lead us to Jacqueline's boxes?

Exactly. Let's go.

That bastard Seward always giving me orders like he thinks he owns this

But if that big -titted bitch Sybil was really in charge, hell, this nuthouse

Quick, Dr. Seward.

Keep on ranting. It's all this crap about a vampire.

Wait for me!

Wait for me!

I'm coming!

We love you.

Done.

At least that's all he said.

Auf Wiedersehen, Minda.
