There have been a spate of murders in the small town of Brennitz near Stuttgart. The coroner voices a theory to the police detective that these murders occur on a 28-year cycle and are being caused by a vampire. The two go to the nearby von Winnegar castle to investigate ” only to be killed. Shortly after, Count Oblensky arrives from London, claiming that he is the latest heir of the von Winnegar name. The inheritance stipulates that only he or his wife can enter the castle and that he must never go down to the dungeons. As he settles into the castle, The Count becomes certain of the existence of vampires but the locals dismiss this as alcoholism or mental illness on his part.
