Based on Chapter Seven of Bram Stoker's DRACULA, this gothic horror high seas adventure tells the shocking events aboard the cargo ship transporting Count Dracula's belongings from Transylvania to England. Suspicion, paranoia, and madness infect the crew as the harried sailors disappear one by one. Full of creeping mystery, vibrant language, rich characters, sinister vanishings, violent sea storms, swashbuckling action, monstrous puppetry, and, of course, a boatload of terrors, this is the Dracula tale you've never seen.
