Dracula: The Series is a short-lived syndicated children's horror television series developed by Glenn Davis and William Laurin, about Count Dracula (aka Alexander Lucard; A. Lucard, if you will) and his struggles with Gustav Helsing, Gustav's young nephews Max and Chris Townsend, and schoolgirl Sophie Metternich, with whom Chris develops romantic feelings.

The series formula is relatively straightforward, with the four heroes learning of some nefarious plot by Dracula and setting out to foil it, with some success. In keeping with the novel, but not most media lore, vampires can travel in sunlight but lack their abilities. Anyone bitten just once by a vampire transform into a zombie-like servant; this process is preventable by applying holy water to the bite.

00:00If anyone should appear at the front desk tonight without an appointment, let them in.
00:11I'm already in.
00:14Well.
00:18Nosferatu.
00:20Greetings and felicitations.
00:22What has it been, Dracula?
00:25Fifty years since you imprisoned me?
00:28You've done well.
00:30Very well, I see.
00:31I'm comfortable.
00:33I thought you might have escaped somehow.
00:36The sudden misfortunes my empire has encountered bear your crude signature.
00:40Of course, that's at an end now.
00:45You haven't changed.
00:47You're still an arrogant, egotistical little brat.
00:50Pettiness was always your forte, my friend.
00:53Your one true calling.
00:55At least there was never weak.
00:57Paintings.
00:57Music, delicate financial deals, your precious empire.
01:03They dilute your true essence.
01:08Power seeks pure evil.
01:12It will come to me.
01:14I doubt that.
01:15Your will is too vulgar for real power.
01:31You are a third-rate bungler when you forgot to wake up Hitler on D-Day.
01:36And nothing's changed.
01:38You cannot attack me here or anywhere, Nosferatu.
01:41I'm too strong for you.
01:43Too strong and too smart.
01:46But I've already won.
01:49When the markets open in Tokyo, my greatest coup will be complete.
01:54I will own your company.
02:00Tomorrow, Nosferatu, nothing will have changed.
02:05I'll still be rich and you'll still be stupid.
02:08I made a useful alliance this morning with a certain Arab nation.
02:14I sold them, my Tokyo company, for 24 hours.
02:18You're lying.
02:20And they'll sell it back to me, just as soon as your attempt to ruin me has failed.
02:26You think you can dismiss me like this?
02:35You think you can dismiss me like this?
