Paris, 1866---A young Hungarian medical student with the arresting last name of Dracula arrives at Salpêtrière Hospital to further his education. There, on his first day, he witnesses a young and beautiful patient submit herself to hypnosis. He becomes obsessed with Stacia, and the affair moves from tender passion to a fit of jealous rage, which ends with a shocking moment of communion.Dracula flees back to Hungary, there assuming his dead brother’s title of “Count.” During the following decades, other young beauties capture the count’s twisted imagination, and he spirals deeper and deeper into the desire for ultimate possession, while ministering to the sick during his daytime existence. Written as a journal, this erotic and chilling tale reveals Dracula as an educated man with serious moral flaws---unable to escape his fantasies and reconcile his inner dichotomy, that of a doctor who is bound by oath to help and mend, and an unstoppable killer feeding on his victims’ blood.
