00:00:00The End
00:00:30Forgive me for taking so long to write back.
00:00:33I'm so sorry to hear of Jonathan's recent illness.
00:00:37I hope you'll soon be well, and you'll both be able to visit me in Hillingham House.
00:00:43I've actually been quite unwell myself.
00:00:46Arthur says it's just pre-wedding nerves, but I know he worries about me all the same.
00:00:52I'm still quite certain I made the right choice, though it wasn't an easy one.
00:00:58Can you imagine receiving two marriage proposals in one day?
00:01:45John, thank you for coming over.
00:01:48Sorry about the hour.
00:01:49There's no need to keep a low profile, John.
00:01:51No, no. It's just there's a particular patient of mine I've been studying quite closely.
00:01:57Fascinating behaviour.
00:01:58It's Lucy.
00:02:00She's not well.
00:02:02She insists there's nothing wrong with her.
00:02:06But I think she might just talk to you.
00:02:10Please.
00:02:26Lucy?
00:02:28Can I come in?
00:02:36Lucy?
00:02:38Lucy!
00:03:10But...?
00:03:30I'm not sure how it is.
00:04:53I'm really just looking for a second opinion.
00:04:55And what is your initial opinion?
00:04:57I don't have one.
00:04:58The poor girl, she's so weak and for the life of me I can't find the cause of it.
00:05:02Poor girl?
00:05:04Now I understand the concern expressed in your telegram.
00:05:09This dear friend is more than a friend, perhaps?
00:05:13No.
00:05:14She's engaged to be married.
00:05:16To someone else.
00:05:18So your concern is purely professional?
00:05:21Well, let's just say the matter of her engagement has only recently been decided.
00:05:27And not in my favour.
00:05:30I see.
00:05:31The lucky gentleman?
00:05:32Arthur Homewood.
00:05:34Fine young man.
00:05:36Well, this is his house.
00:05:38Well, one of them.
00:05:40And what of the girl herself?
00:05:42You've never seen a girl so vivacious, so full of life.
00:05:46Attractive.
00:05:47Well, that's not for me to say.
00:05:49I see.
00:05:50Very attractive.
00:05:51And where might I find the young miss?
00:05:55Lucy.
00:05:56Weston Rath.
00:05:57This way.
00:06:14Arthur?
00:06:16Is that you?
00:06:19Come here and hold me.
00:06:23I'm sorry to disappoint you, my dear.
00:06:26I'm told Arthur will be along shortly.
00:06:30My name is Van Helsing.
00:06:34Your friend, Dr. Seward, seems to think I might be of some assistance.
00:06:39I came up as quickly as I could.
00:06:44Is your man here?
00:06:46He's upstairs, tending to Lucy.
00:06:48Tell me about him.
00:06:50Van Helsing.
00:06:50He's my oldest friend and master.
00:06:53But he is a qualified medical doctor.
00:06:56That, and much more than Arthur.
00:07:00I'm quite sure I'll be right as rain in a day or two.
00:07:03I'd hate for you to have troubled yourself for no reason.
00:07:06Your friend, Dr. Seward, was concerned enough to send for me.
00:07:09And his concern is reason enough for me to come.
00:07:13And meeting you is reason enough not to object, my dear.
00:07:18John is such a sweet fellow.
00:07:20He worries about me too much.
00:07:22I do hope you'll be able to reassure him that nothing's wrong.
00:07:26Well, I agree nothing seems to be wrong with your temperature, pulse or breathing.
00:07:34And yet, how is your appetite?
00:07:40Normal, I think.
00:07:42Some days I'm quite ravenous.
00:07:45But then when food is presented, it rather seems to lose its appeal.
00:07:51And how do you sleep?
00:07:54Quite well.
00:07:55They do say I used to walk in my sleep.
00:07:59I once made it right out the house, down the street, and only in my nightgown.
00:08:03I don't do that anymore.
00:08:05Though, I do have the most extraordinary dreams lately.
00:08:09Extraordinary in what way?
00:08:11I can hardly explain it.
00:08:13But when I wake up, I barely seem to know where I am.
00:08:18And part of whatever I was dreaming on seems to linger.
00:08:24And you cannot describe it?
00:08:27When I first wake up, it's completely vivid.
00:08:30But then moments later, it's gone.
00:08:32I can't recall a thing, no matter how hard I try.
00:08:36There may be a way in which I can assist you.
00:08:39Are you familiar with the concept of hypnosis?
00:08:45John, Dr. Seward had mentioned it once.
00:08:48But I didn't think it was highly regarded.
00:08:51In medical circles, indeed, it is not.
00:08:54But in the understanding of sleep phenomena and of dreams,
00:08:59it can be most useful.
00:09:02Would you permit me to try?
00:09:13I sometimes wonder if this constant battery of tests
00:09:16is doing you some more harm than good.
00:09:19Van Helsing knows what he's doing.
00:09:21The man is quite brilliant.
00:09:25I'll admit he may come across as somewhat arbitrary at times, but...
00:09:28Arbitrary?
00:09:29You mean eccentric?
00:09:31I wouldn't go that far.
00:09:33Trust me, Arnd.
00:09:35The man has more knowledge of obscure diseases than anyone else on Earth.
00:09:41Concentrate on the eye.
00:09:44Not on the watch.
00:09:46Just the eye.
00:09:52I'm going to count backwards now.
00:09:55Starting at ten.
00:09:57I want you to listen to me while I can't.
00:10:02I want you to feel all your troubles and concerns leaving you
00:10:07and flying out through the window.
00:10:14Ten.
00:10:18Nine.
00:10:23Eight.
00:10:32Seven.
00:10:44Lucy?
00:10:45Are you comfortable?
00:10:50Yes.
00:10:53I would like to take you back in time.
00:10:56Several hours.
00:11:01It is midnight.
00:11:03You are lying in this bed.
00:11:08What do you see?
00:11:11Not in bed.
00:11:14Feel the air.
00:11:16Cool air on my face.
00:11:19You are outside.
00:11:21In the street?
00:11:23In the street.
00:11:26In the air.
00:11:29Many places.
00:11:32Are you lost?
00:11:35No.
00:11:39Are you...
00:11:42desirous of something?
00:11:45Is there something you seek?
00:11:48Yes.
00:11:52What is it?
00:12:02What about the wedding?
00:12:05Have the two of you set a date yet?
00:12:08Well, Lucy's keen on September 28th.
00:12:11But that was before all this.
00:12:14I'm not sure if she'll be well enough to deal with all the arrangements.
00:12:18Oh, I can't imagine her illness will last as long as all that.
00:12:20Be honest with you, John.
00:12:22It must be serious.
00:12:23You wouldn't have said if there's Professor Van Helsing.
00:12:28Not serious.
00:12:29Just perplexing.
00:12:31Yes, well...
00:12:32I just hope he's got something to say for himself.
00:12:42Professor, this is Arthur Holmwood.
00:12:43Lucy's fiancée.
00:12:45A pleasure, sir.
00:12:47Well, John, I thank you again for your telegram.
00:12:50But I'm afraid our time together today must be brief.
00:12:53I must return to my study this evening.
00:12:57A pleasure, sir.
00:12:58But, Professor, what do you make of Lucy?
00:13:02Oh, a most charming young lady.
00:13:05I can see why you...
00:13:07Both of you should be so concerned as to her well-being.
00:13:12Yes, but what is your diagnosis?
00:13:15Diagnosis?
00:13:17Oh, I concur with Dr. Seward's analysis.
00:13:22Now, if you'll excuse me...
00:13:24Is that all?
00:13:26With all due respect, Professor...
00:13:28The carrot has been waiting quite some time.
00:13:30No need to see me out.
00:13:32I'm sure you have much to attend to.
00:13:39I told you he can be arbitrary.
00:13:43You call that arbitrary?
00:13:45You call it downright strange.
00:14:04It was fine, darling.
00:14:07It was quite the gentleman, I can assure you.
00:14:09It's not that.
00:14:10I just worry about his methods.
00:14:11It all sounds very pseudo-scientific.
00:14:15And he doesn't seem to have achieved anything at all.
00:14:17Not even with the hypnosis?
00:14:19What?
00:14:21Well, he hypnotised me.
00:14:23Just for a few moments, I think.
00:14:28Really, darling?
00:14:29I didn't feel a thing.
00:14:33Lucy says that man hypnotised her.
00:14:36It's not a new technique.
00:14:37It's a disreputable technique.
00:14:39I once saw a demonstration
00:14:41where a so-called hypnotist
00:14:44had a man believing he was a chicken.
00:14:47Parler trick, Arthur.
00:14:49Well, may I politely request
00:14:53that I be present
00:14:55at any future examinations
00:14:57this man takes of Lucy.
00:15:10I won't...
00:15:11Ah...
00:15:13Ah...
00:15:14Ah!
00:15:18Ah!
00:15:20Let's go.
00:15:53Let's go.
00:16:26Let's go.
00:17:10Let's go.
00:17:23Let's go.
00:17:27Let's go.
00:17:38Let's go.
00:17:47Let's go.
00:18:15Let's go.
00:18:31Let's go.
00:18:34Let's go.
00:18:39Let's go.
00:19:01Let's go.
00:19:12Let's go.
00:19:15Let's go.
00:19:33Let's go.
00:19:34Let's go.
00:19:37Let's go.
00:19:48Let's go.
00:19:53Let's go.
00:20:04Let's go.
00:20:19Let's go.
00:20:21Let's go.
00:20:21Let's go.
00:20:25Let's go.
00:20:38Let's go.
00:20:45Let's go.
00:20:49Let's go.
00:20:51Let's go.
00:20:52Let's go.
00:20:57Let's go.
00:21:06Let's go.
00:21:09Let's go.
00:21:12Let's go.
00:21:14Let's go.
00:21:17Let's go.
00:21:18Let's go.
00:21:18Let's go.
00:21:19Let's go.
00:21:19Let's go.
00:21:39Lucy?
00:22:06Lucy, what are you doing?
00:22:09Are you seeing her sleepwalking again?
00:22:15I missed you, darling.
00:22:19Where is she?
00:22:20Miss Lucy is resting in the chapel.
00:22:27Wait, sir, I think you misunderstand me.
00:22:34What is this?
00:22:36Excellent, excellent.
00:22:38She is much improved.
00:22:41Remember what I told you, John?
00:22:43Don't move.
00:22:45The young doctor has performed quite a service,
00:22:48giving up his own blood to help Miss Lucy.
00:22:52I dare say he has this morning saved her life.
00:22:56Oh, I see.
00:22:59And how are you feeling, my dear?
00:23:01Hungry.
00:23:02Wonderful.
00:23:04A healthy appetite is surely a sign of good health.
00:23:08Mr. Holmwood, sir,
00:23:10I believe the young lady is well enough to return to her room.
00:23:13Right.
00:23:15Right.
00:23:19Right.
00:23:22He's still hungry.
00:23:25Ravenous.
00:23:27I'll fetch something from the kitchen.
00:23:31It's not food I'm hungry for, Arthur.
00:23:39You should rest.
00:23:41You should rest.
00:23:58Thank you, Professor.
00:24:00You did more to save the girl than I did.
00:24:03That's not what I meant.
00:24:05I mean the way you handled Arthur.
00:24:07I did nothing but speak the truth.
00:24:10Thanks to your donation of blood,
00:24:12Lucy is almost back to normal and all is well.
00:24:18Did you learn anything at all from the hypnosis?
00:24:23Nothing definite.
00:24:25Just another piece to add to the puzzle.
00:24:29Why do you ask?
00:24:31I'm still quite sure about the state of her mind.
00:24:35She seems confused.
00:24:37Naturally.
00:24:39A temporary lack of blood to the brain
00:24:42will bring on a little lightheadedness.
00:24:44You feel it yourself now, I'm sure.
00:24:46Yes.
00:24:47The best cure for it, I suggest,
00:24:51can be found in the drawing room.
00:25:08I'm sure you recall, John,
00:25:11that I did ask, or insist,
00:25:15that I be present
00:25:17at any future intervention by Van Helsing.
00:25:21There was no time, Art.
00:25:23You should have seen Lucy this morning.
00:25:24She was on the brink of death.
00:25:26But yesterday you said she was fine.
00:25:28So did Van Helsing.
00:25:29We never said she was fine.
00:25:31Just that we couldn't find anything wrong with her.
00:25:34Isn't that the same thing?
00:25:37Apparently not.
00:25:48Yes, well...
00:25:54I must thank you...
00:25:55for your sacrifice, John.
00:25:58I'm sure you wouldn't have hesitated
00:26:00to do the same thing, Art.
00:26:02Absolutely.
00:26:04She's my fiancée, after all.
00:26:08Have you eaten?
00:26:11I was hungry earlier.
00:26:15No matter.
00:26:17Your colour is much improved from this morning.
00:26:20I do feel better already.
00:26:23I'm very pleased to hear that.
00:26:25And now, I have something
00:26:27to even further lighten your mood.
00:26:37For me?
00:26:38Of course, my dear.
00:26:40You're so sweet, Professor.
00:26:42I'll call the maid to bring a vase.
00:26:44No need.
00:26:45I shall place them here.
00:26:49If it so please you, my dear.
00:26:51If it so pleases you, Professor.
00:26:53It pleases me.
00:26:55I am afraid we are no closer as to divining the cause of your illness.
00:27:01I wonder if you would give me your consent to try the hypnosis once again.
00:27:07It's clearly just a matter of the lack of blood in her veins.
00:27:11But is there such a disease?
00:27:13That drains the blood from the body without any outward sign of it?
00:27:17If there was, the Professor would know of it.
00:27:20Well, perhaps he does know of it and he's concealing it from us.
00:27:23You have to admit, he never gives a straight answer.
00:27:26If he'd made a diagnosis, you'd be the first to know, Art.
00:27:29The only reason he might hesitate is if he isn't sure.
00:27:33Especially if it's something serious.
00:27:38Well, that doesn't exactly put my mind at rest.
00:27:43Ten.
00:27:46Nine.
00:27:48Eight.
00:27:52Seven.
00:28:13Eight.
00:28:16Eight.
00:28:20Eight.
00:28:23Eight.
00:28:24Eight.
00:28:25Eight.
00:28:25Eight.
00:28:26Eight.
00:28:27Eight.
00:28:28Eight.
00:28:30Eight.
00:28:32Eight.
00:28:35Do you seek something?
00:28:40Yes.
00:28:42What do you seek?
00:28:45The thing that I need.
00:28:48What is it that you need?
00:28:51What?
00:29:05What do you seek?
00:29:36Well?
00:29:38She is sleeping.
00:29:41Her pulse is weak but steady.
00:29:45I believe after a night's rest, we will see her much improved.
00:29:52I must see her.
00:29:53She's sleeping.
00:29:54Just...
00:29:56Just for a minute.
00:30:03He's beginning to lose patience with all of this.
00:30:07I understand.
00:30:09She just wants Lucy well again.
00:30:11We all do.
00:30:14As I said, I believe tomorrow she will be much improved.
00:30:19How can you be sure?
00:30:23I have made certain precautions.
00:30:28If I'm correct, tomorrow we will see the results.
00:30:37It's all very strange.
00:30:45She's even sleepwalking again.
00:30:49Sleepwalking.
00:30:52Sleepwalking.
00:30:53Sleepwalking.
00:30:53Well, she got up from the other bed and lay down next to me.
00:30:58Is that all she did?
00:31:01Yes.
00:31:06Of course.
00:31:12But...
00:31:13If Arthur hadn't come in when he did...
00:31:18Yes.
00:31:29The girl has a power over you, does she not?
00:31:54Lucy.
00:31:59Lucy.
00:32:01Lucy.
00:32:01Lucy.
00:32:02John?
00:32:03No, Don, it's me. It's Arthur.
00:32:07Arthur!
00:32:09How do you feel?
00:32:11Stronger.
00:32:13I can feel the new blood running through my veins.
00:32:19It's energising.
00:32:23Like part of him is inside of me.
00:32:32All these flowers.
00:32:35The Professor gave them to me.
00:32:37Perhaps they needed to beat us some water.
00:32:41Oh, that smell dreadful.
00:32:51I'll buy you fresh flowers tomorrow.
00:32:54And the next day, and the next day.
00:32:58Fresh flowers every day.
00:33:01Nothing's too good to my fiancée.
00:33:07I'd do anything to see you well again.
00:33:38Good morning, Professor.
00:33:40Indeed. I hope it will be, John.
00:33:44It is a magnificent property.
00:33:47Arthur's family home.
00:33:48Well, one of them.
00:33:50He's a lord to be, you know.
00:33:53His father is Lord Godalming.
00:33:54Owns this estate and quite a lot more besides.
00:33:58Now I understand.
00:34:00Understand what?
00:34:02The young lady.
00:34:04Miss Lucy.
00:34:05She seems much attracted to you.
00:34:08And yet when the two of you propose to her.
00:34:12She chooses Arthur.
00:34:14Now I understand.
00:34:16One day she will be Lady Godalming.
00:34:19Am I right?
00:34:21Yes.
00:34:23This also has much attraction, I think.
00:34:30I hadn't really thought of it like that.
00:34:34Professor.
00:34:35Come quickly.
00:34:47All the blood is gone.
00:34:51What happened to the flowers I left?
00:34:55Another transfusion.
00:34:56It's the only way.
00:34:58Arthur.
00:35:07I'd give every last drop.
00:35:10You can help Lucy.
00:35:11I don't ask for that much.
00:35:14Not yet.
00:35:18Will it be enough to save her?
00:35:20There is a chance.
00:35:23I can only say a chance.
00:35:25Keep still now.
00:35:26Not do anything, Professor.
00:35:29Not Mines.
00:35:29Yes.
00:35:31Relax the arm.
00:35:32Please.
00:35:44I'd do anything for Lucy.
00:35:48You know.
00:35:50I couldn't believe her when she accepted my proposal.
00:35:56Everyone needs to say that she and John make a perfect match, but...
00:36:03Just rest now.
00:36:11How long do you think it'll take?
00:36:14The same as before.
00:36:17But I will return shortly to monitor them.
00:36:21There may be a danger when Lucy's strength returns in leaving her alone with Arthur.
00:36:29The power she has.
00:36:32The power you felt.
00:36:34I'm sure Arthur feels it too.
00:36:37Perhaps even more so.
00:36:42None of this makes any sense.
00:36:49Listen to me, John.
00:36:52Earlier today I examined Lucy's neck and I found, here, two small punctual wounds.
00:37:01The choker she wears hides them from view.
00:37:05What are they?
00:37:07Some sort of bite?
00:37:10Some sort of bite.
00:37:12Yes.
00:37:13You may be more right than you know.
00:37:19I have considered this matter for several days now.
00:37:23Last night, I was almost sure of my diagnosis.
00:37:27And now today, there can be no doubt.
00:37:35There is something in one of my books I would like to show you.
00:37:53Lucy.
00:38:04This, John, this is what we are dealing with.
00:38:10What do you mean?
00:38:12This isn't a book of medicine.
00:38:15It's a book of witchcraft.
00:38:18Yes, and much more besides.
00:38:23You're not seriously suggesting that Lucy's fallen under some sort of curse?
00:38:28You forget.
00:38:30And here we are.
00:38:32Two men of science and of medicine who have failed to find a cure.
00:38:38Not even a diagnosis for Miss Lucy.
00:38:40You said you did have a diagnosis.
00:38:42Yes.
00:38:43And it is this.
00:38:49Don't move, darling.
00:38:53You'll see me feeling stronger.
00:38:56Yes.
00:38:57I can feel it now.
00:39:00The blood.
00:39:02Flowing into me.
00:39:06Filling me up.
00:39:10There.
00:39:11You'll see it.
00:39:12The loss of blood without a drop spilled.
00:39:15By the night time she recovers and by the morning a deathly pallor returns.
00:39:19Each and every mysterious symptom we have encountered is explained.
00:39:24Can you doubt it?
00:39:26I'd sooner not be the one to show this to Arthur.
00:39:28Arthur?
00:39:29I almost forgot.
00:39:31I'm really feeling so much better now.
00:39:35You're still looking very pale.
00:39:37You should rest a little longer.
00:39:38I don't want to rest.
00:39:39Lucy, be careful of the tube.
00:39:42Kiss me.
00:39:45Lucy, the professor's...
00:39:47Kiss me!
00:39:52No!
00:39:57My God, now what are you doing?
00:39:59Get back!
00:40:17No!
00:40:39Are you stopping?
00:40:43You said there was a chance.
00:40:46The blood transfusion.
00:40:48A small chance.
00:40:51But I fear...
00:40:53If she needed more than any of us could safely give.
00:40:56I'd give it.
00:40:58I'd give it all.
00:41:09You killed her.
00:41:14Us.
00:41:15And you.
00:41:17You failed her from the beginning.
00:41:20And on purpose, I shouldn't wonder.
00:41:22What are you saying?
00:41:23You're perfectly well.
00:41:24If you're accusing me of deliberate malpractice...
00:41:26If you could have her, why should anyone else?
00:41:28I loved her as much as anyone!
00:41:31There's no secret why she chose you, your lordship.
00:41:34John, that's enough!
00:41:36Get out.
00:41:38Get out, both of you.
00:42:13Yeah, that's enough.
00:42:15What's more about her?
00:42:16I think I have to take it all, I'm afraid.
00:42:16Quite a bit.
00:42:18But, at a time like that, he suffered so much.
00:42:45Still, at least it's over now, and we needn't worry Arthur with the things in your book.
00:43:00I'm Lucy's doctor. I'll write the death certificate.
00:43:07Anemia. Weakness of the heart. No one will question it. And then, that will be the end of it.
00:43:23I'm afraid it will not be the end of it. Not at all. This business and Arthur's suffering, it has
00:43:39only just begun.
00:43:43Do you deny what you saw with your own eyes when we entered the chapel?
00:43:49You mean the way she went to kiss it? Kiss him? I was 25 years a married man. I know
00:43:57what a kiss looks like. She meant to drink his blood, John.
00:44:24Is she really dead? Undoubtedly so.
00:44:28What? She looks. When alive, she looked worse than death. Now in death, she looks more than alive.
00:44:41Yes. That's it. Professor, are you familiar with the text of Romeo and Juliet?
00:44:52You are thinking that perhaps some drug has been administered, creating the illusion of death?
00:45:00Such things are possible.
00:45:02But when? And how? Who? And why?
00:45:09You reference Shakespeare. May I reference another great Englishman? Thomas More. A drowning man will clutch at a straw.
00:45:23But still, don't you think we should at least continue to monitor her condition?
00:45:29Yes. That we must do. You must persuade Arthur the body be laid out here at the house, until such
00:45:37time as the funeral can be arranged.
00:45:40I don't think Arthur will listen to anything I propose.
00:45:42In time, he will come to his senses.
00:45:47I hope you're all right.
00:46:28My father's a coward who will settle the bill.
00:46:30Yes, sir.
00:46:58You have done well, John.
00:46:59Lucy will come. Lucy will be much easier to observe here at the house.
00:47:06Observe? You speak so that she is still alive?
00:47:09Alive? No.
00:47:13She is not alive, of that I am certain.
00:47:17But...
00:47:18Dead?
00:47:20This we still need to confirm.
00:47:33Both.
00:47:34For...
00:47:35For...
00:47:36For everything you've done.
00:47:40I may have said some...
00:47:43Regrettable things.
00:47:45Unforgivable things.
00:47:47Really?
00:47:49Arthur!
00:47:50Sir!
00:47:51What a man does, in a rash moment, need not reflect his true character.
00:47:59Now, we must indeed talk further, but not of this.
00:48:04May I suggest the drawing room?
00:48:07Of course.
00:48:08The house is at your disposal, Professor.
00:48:10Yes.
00:48:12Then...
00:48:12Dr. Seward and I may stay on a few days.
00:48:16Think nothing of it.
00:48:17Erm...
00:48:17I'll have the maid prepare two more rooms.
00:48:22I'm actually rather grateful for the company.
00:48:28Now that everything's organised for the funeral,
00:48:30and Lucy's acquaintances have been informed,
00:48:34I feel rather adrift.
00:48:38Miss Lucy has left all of her possessions to you, I believe.
00:48:43Yes, yes.
00:48:44So they tell me.
00:48:46But...
00:48:46I haven't had a moment to think about it, really.
00:48:50I noticed some papers in her room.
00:48:54Letters, journals, this type of thing.
00:48:57Would you have any objection to me examining them?
00:49:02The mystery of Lucy's illness still troubles me.
00:49:07I think there may be much we can learn from her own writings.
00:49:11You must do as you see fit.
00:49:14It's all academic now, though, I suppose.
00:49:18I wish that were so.
00:49:21But we may yet have more work to do.
00:49:24Perhaps now is not the time, Professor.
00:49:27No, no, no, no.
00:49:29Whatever you have to say, I want to hear it.
00:49:31I know you were keeping things from me when Lucy was alive,
00:49:33and though I appreciate the sentiment,
00:49:37it's of no use now.
00:49:39The worst has already happened.
00:49:43I'm afraid not, Arthur.
00:49:47What?
00:49:50All will be revealed, I believe.
00:49:53Quite shortly.
00:49:56But...
00:49:57In the meantime, may I give you something?
00:50:02Both of you.
00:50:04It is most important that you both wear one of these chains.
00:50:10At all times.
00:50:12Even when you sleep.
00:50:14Especially when you sleep.
00:50:16I'm quite confident, my police professor.
00:50:20Things might be different overseas, but...
00:50:23The Church of England doesn't encourage wearing such...
00:50:27tokens.
00:50:28Nevertheless.
00:50:30Do me this one favour.
00:50:33Please.
00:50:39Why are we creeping about at this hour?
00:50:41We have work to do, which would be very troubling for the young man.
00:50:46I knew it.
00:50:47You want to carry out a post-mortem?
00:50:50No.
00:50:55I want to pierce her heart, and sever her head.
00:51:00Have you gone mad?
00:51:01I warned you, John.
00:51:02That the worst was still to come.
00:51:06Look.
00:51:07Look here.
00:51:08See?
00:51:10See how they sever the head of the beast?
00:51:12This is some barbaric medieval ritual.
00:51:16After all that has happened, you still doubt me.
00:51:19I don't doubt your wisdom, Professor.
00:51:23But your methods...
00:51:30Then reserve your judgement...
00:51:33Until we open the casket.
00:51:37What are you doing?
00:51:39It's been several days.
00:51:42John, if I am correct...
00:51:44We will find in this coffin...
00:51:46A vision of Lucy...
00:51:48Exactly as the day she died.
00:51:51Remember how you yourself...
00:51:53Doubted the very fact of her death.
00:52:04My God!
00:52:07It's worse than I thought!
00:52:36We will find her.
00:52:37What is this all?
00:52:39John, I had prepared to show you...
00:52:42That Lucy is not dead, but that she is in fact undead.
00:52:50And to prove this by her Palo, her complexion being that of one still living.
00:52:57But now I see we have less time than I thought.
00:53:01Arthur must be told everything.
00:53:06And this must end tomorrow, exactly as I described.
00:53:15It's the maid.
00:53:17Someone's gone outside.
00:53:21Someone, or something.
00:53:39In all of my preparations, how could I have forgotten the maid?
00:53:46That poor girl.
00:53:51The police have left.
00:53:52They seem to believe some sort of animal had been there in the night.
00:53:55A rat or some such.
00:53:57Do you have rats in the house?
00:54:00Of course not.
00:54:02And you told the police this?
00:54:11Arthur, yesterday you said I should no longer hide the truth from you.
00:54:16Quite right.
00:54:18Then I shall be plain.
00:54:20It was not an animal that killed that girl.
00:54:25It was Miss Lucy.
00:54:29What?
00:54:31What do you mean?
00:54:34Last night, Miss Lucy was absent from her coffin.
00:54:39It's true, Art.
00:54:41We went to examine the body last night and she was gone.
00:54:44You mean someone had taken her?
00:54:46I mean that last night, Miss Lucy got up from her coffin and walked out of this house.
00:54:52And once outside, she killed the maid and drained her of blood.
00:54:57And the two of you are convinced of this?
00:55:07Well, there's only one way to prove it, isn't there?
00:55:18There.
00:55:20Are you satisfied?
00:55:23I swear, when we looked last night, she was gone.
00:55:26Professor?
00:55:31During the day, the beast returns to its lair.
00:55:38How could you say such a thing?
00:55:40Arthur, you ask me to speak plainly.
00:55:44So I do.
00:55:46Look!
00:55:47Look.
00:55:48Look at her neck.
00:55:50The same bite marks as you saw on the maid's neck.
00:55:53So the same thing that killed Lucy killed the maid?
00:55:56Lucy killed the maid.
00:55:59And she will kill again.
00:56:01The only reason the three of us did not meet the same fate as the maid is these crucifixes.
00:56:09She must be stopped.
00:56:11Her heart must be pierced and her head severed.
00:56:15And we must do it now.
00:56:17While she sleeps.
00:56:19I can't.
00:56:23I can't believe it.
00:56:25Don't you see?
00:56:28Even if it were true.
00:56:33I can't.
00:56:35Not Lucy.
00:56:37Not Lucy.
00:56:42I understand.
00:56:46What the mind can accept.
00:56:49Sometimes the heart cannot.
00:56:52We must wait for absolute proof.
00:57:03As young Dr. Seward here likes to remind me, we live in an age of scientific knowledge.
00:57:11Not of superstition.
00:57:15But.
00:57:17With so much new knowledge entering the world.
00:57:22Fighting for our attention.
00:57:24There is a danger.
00:57:26I think.
00:57:27That we forget the old knowledge we once had.
00:57:33There are.
00:57:34After all, certain things we still take on faith.
00:57:37Are there not?
00:57:39We still attend the church each Sunday.
00:57:43We still ask for God's blessing on a marriage.
00:57:47Or a birth.
00:57:49And we take it on faith that he is listening.
00:57:52So is it not therefore possible?
00:57:57Nay.
00:57:58Probable.
00:58:00That there should also be faith of a darker kind.
00:58:05Another side to the world.
00:58:09Which in daylight we never see.
00:58:12And yet exists all the same.
00:58:18People knew of it long ago.
00:58:25The undead.
00:58:28The vampire.
00:58:31This is what we are dealing with.
00:58:36To be truthful.
00:58:38I suspected this from the beginning.
00:58:41And yet it seemed an idea so extraordinary.
00:58:45That I dared not share it.
00:58:47Lest you think me insane.
00:58:50But at each turn.
00:58:52I became more and more convinced that it was true.
00:58:58The vampiric curse.
00:59:02Or.
00:59:03Infection.
00:59:04If you wish to use a scientific term.
00:59:08Is transferred.
00:59:10Via the blood.
00:59:12As Lucy's.
00:59:14Own blood.
00:59:16Was withdrawn.
00:59:18Another blood.
00:59:20The vampire's blood.
00:59:22Replaced it.
00:59:24This blood.
00:59:26So poisoned her.
00:59:28That not only could she no longer go on living.
00:59:31But also that she cannot truly die.
00:59:36And so she remains.
00:59:39Undead.
00:59:40A vampire.
00:59:43Forced to feed on the blood of the living.
00:59:46As one such creature formerly fed on her.
00:59:49Then the maid.
00:59:51Does she also become a vampire?
00:59:54No thank god.
00:59:56If a vampire feeds without first injecting its own blood.
00:59:59Into its victim.
01:00:01The curse is not passed on.
01:00:03You mentioned the crucifixes.
01:00:05That they protected us.
01:00:07Yes.
01:00:08According to the old knowledge.
01:00:11Vampires are possessed of certain.
01:00:14Weaknesses.
01:00:16The holy crucifix.
01:00:17They cannot touch.
01:00:19It burns them.
01:00:20The same is true of holy water.
01:00:23Garlic.
01:00:24They cannot abide.
01:00:26This is the reason for the garlic flowers spread beneath the window.
01:00:32Most powerful of all.
01:00:34Is sunlight.
01:00:37The vampire's power.
01:00:39Is much diminished.
01:00:41During the hours of daylight.
01:00:43This is why they must return to their resting place.
01:00:45Each morning.
01:00:48And finally.
01:00:50To kill them.
01:00:52Is to pierce the heart.
01:00:54And sever the head.
01:00:56There is no other way.
01:01:00If.
01:01:03I see with my own eyes what you've described.
01:01:09You have my best in time.
01:01:14Then we have a long night ahead of us.
01:01:33Remember what I told you Arthur.
01:01:36If she wakes.
01:01:38Her heart must be pierced.
01:01:43It would be safer to do it now.
01:01:47While she sleeps.
01:01:50I can't.
01:01:53I need to be sure.
01:01:57The papers.
01:01:58I mentioned.
01:01:59Lucy's letters and journal.
01:02:02May I view them though?
01:02:05Yes. Of course.
01:02:07Everything is so as it wasn't.
01:02:11In the bedroom.
01:02:15I will be back shortly.
01:02:17Remember what I said.
01:02:32I'm going to go.
01:02:34I am going to be willy.
01:02:41I am going to vivir.
01:02:41I am going to go.
01:02:41I am going to have a problem.
01:02:41How are you going to drive?
01:02:41I am going to be able to drive a coffee table.
01:02:42To be able to get Âż part of theibo?
01:02:53I have to go and check my car.
01:02:54I am going to be able to get closer.
01:03:00From the pen of Miss Mina Murray.
01:03:40No!
01:03:41No!
01:03:55What happened?
01:03:57I don't remember.
01:03:59I...
01:03:59I think it hit my head.
01:04:00Wait here.
01:04:09Lucy!
01:04:44So, you have finally seen the proof?
01:04:48I don't know.
01:04:49The coffin is empty!
01:04:52Do you accept that?
01:04:54Yes.
01:04:55And nobody else was in the room but you?
01:04:58Yes.
01:04:59So you accept that neither Dr. Seward nor I could have removed the body?
01:05:04Yes!
01:05:04He's had quite a shock, Professor.
01:05:10Yes.
01:05:13Perhaps a brandy would be in order?
01:05:24Drink up, Bart.
01:05:25No.
01:05:26What's the Leonette?
01:05:28Yes.
01:05:29The night is far from over.
01:05:33When Lucy returns, we will need to make sure...
01:05:41I've failed you both tonight.
01:05:43I can see that.
01:05:46I'd like you to give me another chance.
01:05:50Another chance to do what?
01:05:51Take care of this.
01:05:56It's my responsibility.
01:05:59What are you talking about?
01:06:00To deal with Lucy.
01:06:04She's...
01:06:05She was my fiancée after all.
01:06:10This is something I need to do myself.
01:06:15I've relied on the two of you too much.
01:06:18But I'm stronger now.
01:06:21I know what needs to be done.
01:06:23And I'm ready to do it.
01:06:31I understand.
01:06:33What?
01:06:35Arthur knows as much as you or I do on the subject now.
01:06:40It is entirely his right to do what must be done on his own terms.
01:06:47I knew you'd understand, Professor.
01:06:51What on earth was all that about?
01:06:53On his own terms?
01:06:55Do you really think Arthur's capable of dealing with Lucy?
01:06:58Something is wrong.
01:07:00And it would have done no good to argue with Arthur.
01:07:03He clearly has a reason for this sudden change of heart.
01:07:08We will find out soon enough.
01:07:10Tomorrow night.

01:12:03Is she still warm?
01:12:06Yes. Oh, yes.
01:12:08Will she be enough?
01:12:11It's never enough, Arthur.
01:12:19Don't you miss the touch of these hands, Arthur?
01:12:23The touch of these lips.
01:12:27Are you cold?
01:12:29Hi, guys.
01:12:31I need you to fill me up with your warmth, Arthur.
01:12:38But first...
01:12:45Join me, Arthur.
01:12:50Drink with me.
01:12:52Then we can be together forever.
01:12:57Lucy, I just wanted to help.
01:13:00I thought if you had enough blood, you might be cured.
01:13:04You don't want to cure me.
01:13:06You want to join me.
01:13:09I know you feel the hunger that I feel, Arthur.
01:13:15I shed my blood with you.
01:13:21Soon...
01:13:22We'll share everything.
01:13:24We'll share everything.
01:13:30Ah!
01:13:39Join.
01:13:44Arthur, no!
01:13:49John!
01:13:50John!
01:13:50The water!
01:13:53This is holy water.
01:13:56I know you fear its touch.
01:13:58Huh.
01:14:01The water!
01:14:07The water!
01:14:18The water.
01:14:28Arthur, we cannot hold them much longer.
01:14:35Quickly, Arthur.
01:14:37You can't defeat us.
01:14:40My master warden.
01:14:41You can't defeat us all.
01:14:42Do it!
01:14:47Now!
01:15:10Finally, she is at peace.
01:15:26I know what he's doing in there.
01:15:30There's no need to pretend otherwise.
01:15:36She won't suffer, Art.
01:15:40Not anymore.
01:15:51Dear God, what have I done?
01:15:52Come on.
01:15:53Come on.
01:15:54Come on.
01:16:08Come on.
01:16:33You know it wasn't Lucy.
01:16:38That.
01:16:40Thing.
01:16:46It could pretend to be her, it had her form, but it wasn't her.
01:17:19I knew it deep down.
01:17:25Even as I convinced myself that I could still save her.
01:17:34A feeling I've always felt really.
01:17:40That there was a part of her that I didn't know.
01:17:51That never belonged to me.
01:17:56That belonged to someone else.
01:18:01Let's just drink to the good memories we both have.
01:19:40I'm sure you can't stay a little longer, Professor.
01:19:42Art will be sorry he missed you.
01:19:44I could wake him.
01:19:45Let him sleep.
01:19:46Let him sleep, John.
01:19:47He has not rested properly for days, and I have much to do in my study.
01:19:53Miss Lucy's letters and journal are most interesting.
01:19:58I must study them further.
01:20:06Sounds like your carriage is here.
01:20:24Professor Van Helsing?
01:20:25Yes?
01:20:26I knew it was you.
01:20:28Lucy described you so well in her last letter.
01:20:31I'm sorry, miss, but I'm afraid I...
01:20:33I have something for you.
01:20:35I believe these diaries will provide crucial information for you in your investigations.
01:20:40Ah, yes.
01:20:41I remember your letter to Lucy.
01:20:43Miss Mina Murray, I presume.
01:20:46Actually, my fiancé and I were recently married in Budapest.
01:20:52It's Harker. Mina Harker.
01:20:57I will be the last to fall.
01:21:05I won't shed a tear for them to see.
01:21:13I won't have your name to call, I won't be your name to call.
01:21:21I won't have your name to call, I will be the last to fall.
