"Blood Runs Thicker..."

Elise Bloodstone and her eighteen-year-old daughter, Elsa, arrive in Boston from London. Elise has inherited the property of her late husband, Ulysses Bloodstone, and must meet with the executor, Charles Barnabas, to finalize the paperwork.

Barnabas greets them at the door of the lavish Bloodstone Manor. He welcomes the two women inside and explains that it has taken him many years to track down Ulysses' surviving family. Elsa finds a portrait of her father hanging in one of the sitting rooms. She laments the fact that she grew up never knowing her father, and has little idea of the dangerous lifestyle that Ulysses engaged in.

While Elise deals with Barnabas, Elsa roams around the manor. While examining a steel skull, she accidentally activates a secret door that leads down into an immense cavern. With curiosity overwhelming her, she creeps down into the cave. There she finds an array of strange trophies and artifacts – one of which is the preserved skull of a Tyrannosaur. The most bizarre oddity however is the mansion's caretaker, Adam. Adam is giant of a man with scars running across his face and hands. He warmly greets Elsa and reveals that her adventurous father was actually a world famous monster hunter. Adam has been in the Bloodstone family's employ for many years.

Elsa examines two more artifacts; one is a choker containing her father's Bloodgem, and the other is a magic lamp. Rubbing the lamp, Elsa inadvertently makes a wish, and finds herself instantly transported to the country of Bosnia. Standing before her is the vampire lord, Dracula, fending off several armed soldiers.





You might have told me we were airborne, you secretive little bat-faced man, you.

—Elsa Bloodstone
