Synopsis

The Blood Countess and her maid commence a new dance of the vampires. We accompany them on their absurd quest for the red elixir of life, the buried history of their ancestors and a book that threatens to destroy their vampire realm. Hot on their heels: a vegetarian nephew, his psychotherapist, two vampirologists and a police inspector, complete with assistants.
