Years after his last hunt, Blade follows whispers of an ancient evil stirring in Transylvania. The legend is impossible to ignore—Dracula may have returned. Posing as a private investigator, Blade steps into a fog-soaked town forgotten by time, where corpses vanish from graves and the villagers fear the shadows. The trail leads him to the towering, decrepit Castle Dracula, said to have once belonged to Vlad the Impaler himself. With local cryptid expert Jack Russell as his reluctant guide, Blade begins unraveling the mystery. But inside the castle’s bloodstained halls, they find something unexpected—Dracula, barely alive, chained and weakened. He isn’t the threat. His daughter is. Lilith, born of darkness and ambition, has stolen Dracula’s essence to resurrect Vlad the Impaler—the first vampire. As she prepares the ritual in the town square, Blade rushes to stop her. He urges Jack to flee, but the man lets out a howl—and transforms into a hulking werewolf. Together, Blade and Jack battle Lilith under a blood-red moon. With her spellbook in hand, Blade banishes her to the Nether Realm of the Mind. Dracula, now restored, warns them: Vlad's spirit stirs. Before vanishing into mist, Blade hands Jack a card. “Midnight Suns. You want in? We’ll need monsters like you.”
