PlotProfessor Abronsius, an eccentric vampire hunter, and his bumbling assistant Alfred travel to a remote Transylvanian village plagued by vampire activity. The duo checks into an inn run by Yoine Shagal, whose daughter Sarah soon catches Alfred's eye. Despite the villagers' attempts to dismiss the existence of vampires, Abronsius remains undeterred. One night, Sarah is abducted by Count von Krolock, a local vampire lord. Determined to rescue her, Abronsius and Alfred set out for Krolock's castle.
As they arrive at the ominous stronghold, their mission becomes perilous.
