In a small village
in Moldavia, U.S.S.R., a couple hear their daughter screaming as she is
attacked by her late husband who is now a vampire trying once again to reclaim
his wife… Petra and Gorna were married and only then did she learn what a cruel
and abusive man he was, bragging about killing a man for merely talking to her.
She prayed for his death and on his deathbed, he warned her that he would come
back for her if she ever saw another man; she mocked him. He was buried and
Petra began dating Maurice but Gorna, who had died of a vampire’s bite,
returned and killed Maurice, and now wants Petra to join him—but her parents
always drive him off….
Count Dracula
arrives, seeking a coffin he had placed there years before, but finds Gorna
denying him the use of the cemetery. Dracula commands him to leave but Gorna
refuses; Dracula calls down lightning but Gorna sneers and departs. Dracula,
unable to understand why he could not command Gorna, pursues him in bat form.
Gorna once again heads to Petra’s house where he bites her but he is again
interrupted by her father Peter who stabs him with a flaming stake, sending him
fleeing in panic. Dracula arrives moments later and Petra fills him in on the
story and now Dracula knows how to defeat his enemy….
In London, Frank Drake
and Rachel van Helsing visit Quincy Harker and they bring each other up to date
on their deeds….
Dracula challenges
Gorna to battle in the cemetery. Gorna, his flesh now burned from his bones,
calls down fire from the skies upon the Count—but Dracula stands unharmed,
seizing his unfaithful minion by the throat he hurls him to be consumed by his
own fire and departs as the dawn comes. A group from the city arrives to see
Gorna’s end…and Petra is released from the curse of the past….
