No! Do not see me!
Lucy.
- I couldn't control myself. - Lucy, you're dreaming. You're walking in your sleep again.
My soul seemed to leave my body.
There was this agonizing feeling and, when it came back to me,
- I saw you shaking me. - You're all right, Lucy. You were dreaming.
I had to. It sort of pulled me and lured me and I had no control.
And those red eyes! I still have the taste of his blood on my mouth.
Master, I am here to do your bidding.
Master, I am here. I have worshipped you!
Contrary to some beliefs, the vampire, like any other night creature, -
- can move about by day though it is not his natural time and his powers are weak.
See the amazing cinematograph!
A wonder of modern civilization! An amazing sensation....
The greatest invention of the century. The new wonder of the world!
See the amazing cinematograph!
See me.
See me now.
Escaped wolf from zoo still at large! Paper, sir?
Thank you, sir.
My humblest apologies. Forgive my ignorance.
I have recently arrived from abroad and I do not know your city.
- Is a beautiful lady... - You may purchase a street atlas for six pence. Good day.
I have offended you.
I am only looking for the cinematograph. I understand it is a wonder of the civilized world.
If you seek culture, then visit a museum. London is filled with them. Excuse me.
A woman so lovely and intelligent should not be walking the streets of London without her gentleman.
Do I know you, sir?
Are you acquainted with my husband? Shall I call the police?
Husband? I shall bother you no more.
Sir,
it is I who have been rude. If you are looking...
Please, permit me to introduce myself.
I am Prince Vlad of Szekely.
- A prince, no less? - I am your servant.
Wilhelmina Murray.
I am honored, Madame Mina.
This way.
- Hello. Mr. Holmwood asked me to stop by to see Miss Lucy. - Yes, sir.
- Dr. Seward, Miss Lucy. - Thank you.
Oh, Jack. Brilliant Jack. Do you like it?
Did Arthur put you up to this or did you want me alone just once before I'm married?
Miss Lucy, you are embarrassing me. I am here as your doctor. Your fiance is very worried about you,
and I assure you a doctor's confidence is sacred. I must have your complete trust.
Help me, Jack. I don't know what's happening to me.
I'm changing. I can feel it.
I can hear everything. I hear the servants at the other end of the house whispering.
I hear mice in the attic stomping like elephants.
But I'm having horrible nightmares, Jack. The eyes!
- Oh, Jack. - I'm here, Lucy. Nothing will harm you.
- Let it work. - Thank you.
Oh, Jack. Kiss me.
And may I say Miss Lucy is hotter than a June bride riding bareback buck-naked in the middle of the...
I would watch my colonial tongue, if I were you.
Hello again. And how is our lovely patient today?
- Well, frankly, Arthur, I'm confounded. - Oh, Jack, are you still brooding over Miss Lucy?
- I can only conclude it must be something mental. - How very drole. Did you hear that, Quince?
Last week he wants to marry her, and now he wants to have her committed.
Let's go have a look at her, shall we?
I'm at a loss, I admit.
I've taken the liberty of cabling Abraham Van Helsing, a metaphysician philosopher.
- Sounds like a goddam witchdoctor to me, Jack. - Van Helsing knows more about obscure diseases than any man in the world.
He's my teacher and mentor.
Do it, man. Bring him here. Spare no expense.
Astounding! There are no limits to science.
How can you call this science?
Do you think Madame Currie would invite such comparisons? Really!
I shouldn't have come here. I must go.
Do not fear me.
Stop this! Stop this! Stop this!
My God, who are you? I know you!
I have crossed oceans of time to find you.
Come here, Mina.
He likes you.
There is much to be learned from beasts.
...the vampire bat must consume 10 times its own weight in fresh blood each day, -
- or its own blood cells will die.
Cute little vermin, Ja?
Blood and the diseases of the blood such as syphillis will concern us here.
The very name 'venereal diseases', the 'diseases of Venus', -
- imputes to them divine origin. They are involved in that sex problem about which -
- the ethics and ideals of Christian civilization are concerned.
In fact, civilization and syphillization have advanced together.
- What is this? - It's from the telegraph, Professor.
Hmm, thank you. Gentlemen, thank you, that will be all.
Dawn. These may be the last words I write in this journal.
Dracula has left me with these women, these devils of the pit.
They drain my blood to keep me weak, barely alive so I cannot escape.
I will try one last time today to escape to the water. There must be passageway to the river...
...and then away from this cursed land where the devil and his children still walk with earthly feet.
For the record, I do attest that at this point I Abraham Van Helsing, -
- became personally involved with these strange events.
Professor Van Helsing, how good of you to come!
I always come to my friends in need when they call me. So, Jack, tell me everything about your case.
She has all the usual physical anemic signs. Her blood analyzes normal and yet it is not.
- She manifests continued blood loss but I cannot trace the cause. - Blood loss? How?
My God, close the door.
My God, she's only a child.
Ja, my God.
There's no time to be lost. There must be a transfusion at once. Take off your coat.
- You remember how to tie a tourniquet, don't you, or have you forgotten? - You've perfected a procedure?
Perfected, no. I've only experimented. Landsteiners method.
Animals, goats, sheeps...
If hemolysis occurs in the blood or the serum, her red blood cells will explode.
She will die. Here, take this tube.
- What in God's name is going on up here? - This is Professor Van Helsing, Art. - Well, what the hell is he doing to Lucy?
- He's trying to save her life. - Good God.
- You're the fiance?
Please, please, take off your coat.
This young lady is very ill, she's dying, she wants blood, and blood she must have.
- Take off your coat. - Roll up your sleeve, Arthur.
- Quicly. Quickly... - Roll it up!
This may hurt a little, Art.
Ow! Forgive me, sir. My life is hers. I would give my last drop of blood to save her.
Your last drop? Thank you, you are very welcomed here.
I do not ask as much as that...
--not yet.
Hold her hand.
But Jack, that poor creature has had the blood of two men put into her already.
Man alive, her whole body couldn't hold that much blood.
- What took it out? - That's a good question, Mr. Morris.
Those marks on her throat. No disease, no trituration, I'm sure the blood loss occurred there.
Oh? Where did the blood go?
You were once a careful student, Jack. Use your brain. Where did the blood go, tell me!
- The bed clothes would be covered in blood. - Exactly. You do not let your eyes see nor your ears hear that which you cannot account for.
Something just went up there, sucked it out of her, and flew away, I suppose?
Ja, why not?
That's brilliant. That's absolutely brilliant.
Will one of you learned doctors, or whatever you are, kindly tell me what is going on with my Lucy?
Jack, you are a scientist.
You do not think that there are things in this universe which you cannot understand and which are true...
- ...mesmerism, hypnotism... - You and Charcot have proved hypnotism!
...telekinesis... materialization... astral bodies...
- Professor?
Where the hell did he go?
See?
I feel like a blundering novice.
Gentlemen, we're not fighting some disease here.
Those marks on your dear Miss Lucy's neck were made by something unspeakable out there...
...dead but not dead. It stalks us for some dread purpose I do not yet comprehend.
To live, it feeds on Lucy's precious blood. It is a beast, a monster.
What is happening to Lucy and to me?
When I was younger, my feelings were never troubled.
I wish I were myself again,
the sensible Mina I've always depended on.
Absinthe is the aphrodisiac of the soul.
The green fury who lives in the absinthe...
...wants your soul.
But you are safe with me.
Tell me, Prince, tell me of your home.
The most beautiful place in all creation.
Yes, it must be.
A land beyond a great, vast forest
surrounded by majestic mountains,
lush vineyards,
and flowers of such frailty and beauty as to be found nowhere else.
You describe my home as if you had seen it firsthand.
It's your voice, perhaps. It's so familiar.
It's like a... it's like a voice in a dream I cannot place,
and it comforts me when I am alone.
And what of the princess?
- Princess? - There is always a princess...
... with gowns flowing white.
Her face...
...her face
...is the river.
The princess, she is the river
filled with tears of sadness and heartbreak.
There was a princess...
Elisabetha.
She was the most radiant woman in all the empires of the world.
Man's deceit took her from her ancient prince.
She leapt to her death into the river that you spoke of.
In my mother's tongue, it is called:
River Princess.
Dear Madam, your fiance is safe and in the care of the good sisters of the blessed sacrement
Mr. Harker believes your life is in extreme danger,
and he desires with all urgency that you join him here so that you may immediately be married.
Yours with all blessings, Sister Agatha.
My sweet Prince. Jonathan must never know of us.
- Lucy! Lucy! - Abraham Van Helsing - Dr. Van Helsing.
- You are Madam Mina, dear friend to our Lucy, Ja? - How is she, doctor?
She is still very weak. She tells me of your beloved Jonathan Harker and your worry for him.
Well, I too worry for all young lovers.
The darkness is not the Light, my child, and there are Lights.
You are one of the Lights, dear Mina, the Light of all Light.
Go now, see your friend.
Mina...
You look different, Mina, you look positively radiant.
- You've heard from Jonathan, haven't you? - Yes.
Yes. He's safe, Lucy. He's in a convent in Romania.
He's suffering from a violent brain fever.
The good sisters are caring for them. They wrote to me and they say he needs me
me but I won't go. I'm not going to leave you.
Mina, you've got to go to him.
ou've got to love him and marry him right then and there.
And I want you to take this, my sister. It's my wedding gift to you.
- No, Lucy ... - Don't worry about spoiled little Lucy.
I'll be all right.
Tell Jonathan oceans of love.
Jack, how is she?
- Oh, oh. This is why I can't breathe! - It's medicinal. To help you sleep, Lucy. It's for the bad dreams.
- It's garlic! It's nothing but garlic. - Lucy, Quincey's here. Quincey's here to see you.
Now, Miss Lucy, you just rest easy. Arthur sent me to take care of you.
He said if you don't get better right quick I have to put you out of your misery like a lame horse.
Quincey, you're such a beast.
Will you kiss me, Quincey?
Kiss me.
Poljubi me!
- You old coot! - Get off me!
Lucy, listen to me. Sleep, sleep now, sleep.
There, there.
Nosferatu.
"Here occurs the shocking and frightening history of the wild berserker, Prince Dracula,
how he impaled people and roasted them, boiled their heads in a kettle,
how he skinned them alive and hacked them to pieces and then drank their blood."
Dracula.
Her blood is the life.
"My dearest Prince, forgive me.
I have received word from my fiance in Romania. I am en route to join him.
We are to be married. I will never see you again."
Mina.
It's odd but I feel almost that my strange friend is with me.
He speaks to me in my thoughts. With him, I felt more alive than ever I had.
And now, without him, soon to be a bride, I feel confused and lost.
Perhaps, though I try to be good, I am bad. Perhaps I am a bad, inconstant woman.
Winds! Winds!
Winds!
It is the cause. It is the cause, my soul.
It is Dracula, the undead,
the foe I have pursued all my life.
Dracula!
Jack, hurry, I have much to tell you.
Guard her well, Mr. Morris. Do not fail here tonight.
We are giving the forces beyond all human experience an enormous power.
So guard her well, otherwise your precious Lucy will become a bitch of the devil,
a whore of darkness.
Well you're a sick old buzzard!
Hear me out, young man. Lucy is not a random victim attacked by mere accident, do you understand? No!
She is the willing recruit, a breathless follower, a wanton follower, I dare say, a devoted disciple.
She is the devil's concubine,
do you understand me?
Yet we may still save her precious soul
but not on an empty stomach.
- Jack? - Yes, sir.
Ah, I starve. Feed me.
You old coot!
