On Christmas Eve,
Dracula awaits the birth of his son; his bride Domini has one request: that the
baby be born in the church. Dracula demurs, fearing the portrait of Jesus Christ
hanging there but he gives in to Domini and orders Anton Lupeski to have her
transported there….
The vampire hunters
(Blade, Rachel van Helsing, Frank Drake, Harold H. Harold), meeting in
Quincy Harker’s hospital room, talk over recent events. Harold mentions hearing that
Dracula is married and having a kid and it’s all happening tonight. The others
scoff but Quincy tells them they must kill Dracula tonight….
Rachel goes out and
captures Anton Lupeski, wanting to be taken to Dracula. Lupeski reveals that he
also wants Dracula dead as a threat to his leadership of the Satanists. Rachel
doesn’t trust him but Lupeski is very cooperative. She calls the others and
they plan to meet at Dracula’s church….
Rachel has gone on
ahead to the church and she confronts Dracula with her crossbow and fires;
Dracula swats the bolt out of the way and she pulls a crucifix. The Count turns
to mist and departs, only to come up behind her and knock her out. For safety
reasons, Dracula takes Domini to the barn behind the church while ordering
Lupeski to tie up Rachel. Rachel, who was feigning unconsciousness, is able to
remove a special arrow from the quiver and fire it out of the window while
bound. It’s a flare that brightens up the sky, signaling Frank and the others
where she is. Frank, Blade, and Harold, with Quincy’s dog Saint, untie Rachel
and go to fight Dracula. There is a small battle but when the baby is born, an
oddly golden-skinned baby with red eyes, the fighting ceases. Dracula gives
leave for his enemies to depart for tonight is a night of peace. Unable to help
themselves, the vampire hunters leave….
