The Brides of Dracula

In the mist‑shrouded hills of Transylvania, a young French schoolteacher arrives for her first posting, her carriage halted by an inn that seems to linger between hospitality and ominous warning. The landscape is a tapestry of crumbling stone, dense forest, and sleepy villages that whisper of ancient superstitions, setting a tone that is both hauntingly beautiful and subtly foreboding.

When she encounters a headstrong local youth seeking escape from the grip of a domineering mother, she feels compelled to help, driven by the earnest idealism that brought her to this remote corner of the world. Her compassion quickly draws her into a web of family secrets and unexplained forces that have long lingered beneath the surface of the community.

Unintended consequences ripple outward as the very act of aiding the fledgling rebellion awakens something far older and darker than any human quarrel—a restless undead presence that begins to seep into the countryside and even the girls’ academy where she will teach. The atmosphere shifts from uneasy curiosity to palpable dread, as rumors of night‑time disturbances stir the quiet halls and the surrounding hamlets alike.

Amid the growing panic, the legendary Dr. J. Van Helsing arrives, his reputation for confronting the macabre preceding him like a dark beacon. He moves through the fog‑laden streets with a calm that belies the terror swirling around him, ready to confront the unseen menace that threatens to engulf the region. Together, the teacher’s hope and Van Helsing’s seasoned resolve promise a tense clash between innocent intention and a centuries‑old horror waiting just beyond the candlelight.
