The vampire hunters,
Quincy Harker, Rachel van Helsing, and Frank Drake, are looking through
Harold H. Harold’s extensive library on the occult, seeking a means of returning the
ashes of Dracula to life. Harold finally discovers one: the blood or tears of a
virgin can reanimate the ashes of a vampire. That doesn’t sound too
promising—until Aurora Rabinowitz, weeping over Dracula’s demise, accidentally
drips a tear into the urn. With an explosion and a fire, Dracula is restored to
life. The vampire asks for an explanation and all Quincy has to do is mention
Doctor Sun and Dracula is ready to take his vengeance. And for having saved his
life twice, Dracula promises Aurora his protection. Then Dracula takes off to
prey on a young woman for her blood, leaving Quincy Harker to have her death on
his conscience. But as he is drinking his fill, he is discovered by Blade;
Dracula tells him that he and Harker are combining forces against Doctor Sun
and invites him back to the apartment…
…where Quincy tries
to justify his decision but Blade doesn’t buy it and he is still annoyed at
having been framed for murder by vampires working for Dracula. Blade ridicules
their thinking that Dracula can be trusted and warns Aurora that she’s next.
Rachel tells him to leave and they get down to business. Dracula goes out to
scout Sun’s hideout in bat form, unaware that Blade is following him….
Interlude: a couple
of neighborhood kids go out trick or treating, a boy as Spider-Man and a girl
as a witch….
Dracula, plotting to
kill Rachel and Quincy once he has destroyed Doctor Sun, watches from a rooftop
as Sun marshals his (hypnotized) troops for his plan of world conquest,
pronouncing his foe a madman. Dracula enters as a mist, overpowers various
guards, and comes face-to-face (sort of) with Doctor Sun. They are interrupted
by the doorbell ringing and Blade steps forward to join Dracula. Meanwhile, the
trick or treaters decide no one is coming and go home….
