Leaving Harker with his vampire brides at his castle, Dracula travels by ship to England, where he starts preying upon Lucy and Mina Westenra.

As the Westenra household slowly falls apart, Van Helsing leads Mina, Seward, Harker, brave servant Florrie, on a crusade against the dark powers of Dracula. What will happen to poor Lucy? And will the powers of light triumph over the cursed blood of Dracula?
