The Satanic Rites of Dracula



In London in the 1970s, Scotland Yard police investigators think they have uncovered a case of vampirism. They call in an expert vampire researcher named Van Helsing (a descendant of the great vampire-hunter himself, no less) to help them put a stop to these hideous crimes. It becomes apparent that the culprit is Count Dracula himself, disguised as a reclusive property developer, but secretly plotting to unleas! h a fatal virus upon the world.

But Dracula has a trap for a more personal revenge against Van Helsing waiting. The last true Hammer Horror influenced various occult groups: The Church of Satan and the artist, actor and parapsychologist Stephen Armourae, much like the more famous The Wicker Man.
