THE BLOOD COUNTESS
synopsis
Decades after her mysterious disappearance, the Blood Countess re-emerges in modern-day Vienna where she reunites with her devoted underling, Hermine, to track down a dangerous book with the power to destroy all evil – including all vampires such as themselves.

Meanwhile, a pair of vampirologists and a police inspector remain hot on their trail…
