Count Dracula
for Count Dracula in DRACULA (Animated Netflix Miniseries)
Suggested by enzotakerian
This animated miniseries will be very faithful to the original Bram Stoker novel. It will show a backstory of the Prince of Darkness. At the near end of the Victorian Era, Jonathan Barker, a young English realtor, travels to Castle Dracula in Transylvania to discuss real estate with the count himself. After accidentally learning too much about why the Count is buying land in Carfax, Harker spends the next few months in the Castle as prisoner. Meanwhile, his fiancée, Mina, gets worried sick about why he hasn't written to her in a while, while her friend Lucy Westerner, has found the perfect man to marry out of all three suitors. When Jonathan finally escapes, Mina meets up with him at where he's being hospitalised. Upon reunion, they elope and return to England. Upon their absence, a cargo ship washes ashore with the crew dead, and something is lurking among the shadows of England. Certain people, including Lucy, are acting strangely (desiring to drink blood). After Lucy dies, Dr. John Seward, who is a psychiatrist, learns from his old professor, Abraham Van Helsing, that the Count is a vampire planning to create a legion of the undead (Lucy being one of them). Everyone comes together and learns from each other's journal entries that Mina may hold the key to end this reign of terror.
