"Macasio, but it's Paolino?" " Of course Crescencio." "It was his turn." "It doesn't look like.He's more pale than a cadaver." "As the others." "More pale than a cadaver." " Where did it happen?" " As usual." "At the death lagoon." "Let's go." "You see, Sir?" "I told you so." "Why his Lordship wouldn't stay at the village tonight?" "Full moons always brings misfortune on The Villa of Spirits." " Superstitions nonsense." " No Sir." "Each full moon a young man from the village dies." "It never misses." "Mere coincidence." "What does the full moon have to do with all this?" "It wakes up the soul of Mr Count in hell!" "Stupidity!" "Maybe it's as you say but why don't we come back?" "Go back if you want." "I've got to go to the Villa of the Spirits." "Well, I prefer." "You will bring back the carriage to the town house tomorrow." "I will bring it back later tonight." "I have a letter of recommendation for the Marquis Gonzalo Guzman de la Serba." " At this hour?" " I couldn't come earlier." "It's been a long trip from Mexico." "Here it looks like the end of the world." "Give it to me." "Follow me." "Welcome to my home Dr Ulysses Alvorandi." "Thank you Mr Marquis." "My master was right when he told me I would be welcomed in your home." "Your master and I, more than friends, were like brothers." "And despite the passing of time we continue to deeply appreciate each other." "But take a seat please." " And how is that dear Alejandro?" " Younger than ever." "It looks like time has stopped for him." "Yes he always bragged about discovering the elixir of youth and life..." "Nothing is impossible to the man who made so many wonderful discoveries." "My trip here is precisely about one of these discoveries that will revolutionize our knowledge on life." "And it's only here that we can attempt the experiment that will prove this discovery." " Here?" " Yes, Mr Marquis." "My master thinks this area is sheltering the thing he needs the most." "Must we expect then the coming of Count Cagliostro?" "No Mr Marquis." "It's impossible for him to come now." "That's why he sent me in his place, I, his most hardened disciple in the matter." "I don't want to be nosy but could you tell me what all is this about?" "Vampires." " And how did your master learn that here..." " I don't know." "I guess he knows about everything as already knew his illustrious ancestor, Joseph Balsamo..." "It seems a magic thing or he has a sixth sense that us mortals don't." "Like a thousand eyes seeing everything." "Well." "How can I help you?" "I'd like to stay in this house for a while." "Agreed." "You can stay as long as you wish." "He can't stay." "By no means!" " Who says so?" " Me." "Whoever comes in this house on behalf of Count Cagliostro will find the door widely open." "But your excellency knows that it's impossible." "That's enough, Frau Hildegarda!" "Doctor Alvaran will stay." "Beware, Mr Marquis, it's very dangerous!" "But it's worth taking the risk, right?" " I'm sorry, it's my fault if..." " Don't worry." "Frau Hildegarda is a very kind person, faithful as a dog, but it's also necessary to remind her that she's only a maid." "It's here." "What's going on?" "Father Victor is busy tearing from hell the soul of the unfortunate man you saw this afternoon." "What?" "The father says these dead people are the devil's work." "And he says that his prayers will help to put an end to this." " Explain it." " It's not clear enough, Sir?" "I understand nothing." "Explain it." "What dead people are you talking about?" "And what the devil has to do with them?" "To tell you the truth Sir, I missed some parts of this story too." "Why don't you ask Mr Maxim?" " Who is he?" " The mayor." "The dead guy's father." "He's not been in charge for a long time." " Can I talk to the Mayor?" " Of course Sir." "Mr Mayor." "Follow me your Lordship." "Mr Mayor is coming immediately." "Excuse me." "How can I help you?" "I'm sorry to bother you in this time of grief, Mr Mayor." "I wanted to offer my sympathy for the death of your son." "Thank you." "Allow me to introduce myself." "Dr Ulysses Alvaran." "At your service." "I don't want to have anything to do with this cursed Villa of Spirits." "Maybe I can be more useful than you think." "What help could you give me?" "Now my son is dead." "There's worse than death." "No, there's nothing worse than not seeing again the people you love." "I don't agree." "Seeing him coming back from the grave, looking alive, but dead inside, to spread the most dreadful desolation on earth is worse." "If you want to trample my heart, to mock a grieving father," "I will show you how I treat a quack like you!" "I'm not a charlatan." "I already told you I'm a Doctor." "I only came here to conduct some experiments which in all probability have a lot in common with what provokes so much death and grief in this village." "But I can't work alone." "I need your help and other people's help." "If only I knew how it all started." "It was a full moon when the Count went out for a walk with his wife." "Horses and carriage returned empty to the Villa of Spirits." "Next day the corpse of he Countess was found near the "death lagoon"." "We never heard of the Count after that." "As if he was devoured by the earth." "What Count are you speaking of, Mr Mayor?" "Count Frankenhausen." "Frankenhausen." "The Villa of Spirits which was a blessing to everyone became our curse." "During full moons the soul of the Countess comes back and makes the same walk again from the Villa to the "death lagoon"... where she drowns herself in the water." "Young people in the country lost their mind and one of them decided to follow her to the place where she disappeared." "Next day he was found exactly at the same place where she died a long time ago." "With that hideous palor that no one ever saw on a dead man's face." "Like my son now." "The words you just said contain very important details that maybe can help us to solve those mysterious deaths." "Those deaths are not mysterious at all." "I used to mock Father Victor when he said it was the devil's work." "But now I'm telling' you, it's Satan himself taking these young people's souls to plunge their parents in despair and part us from our holy ways." "These dead people are Satan's work." "Death is the work of the deceased themselves." "Hell has nothing to do with this case." "The gentleman will think we're backwards people in this village." "My reputation is at stake Don Effren, don't you think?" "And mine, Don Maximo, mine too." "I'm the Doctor in this village and I won't tolerate someone having doubts on my scientific knowledge." "May I introduce myself, Sir?" "Effren Lopez, doctor or physician as call me the small-minded minds living in this place." "A forgotten hole that civilization" "hasn't visited yet and never will as long as it belongs to the same family." "Dr Ulysses Alvaran from Mexico." "Very nice then, we're colleagues." "I'm afraid not Sir." "I'm a Doctor in alchemy and occult forces." "I'm not a physician." "Don Effren neither." "He's just a bone setter." "I'm a Doctor even if I didn't went to school." "I have many years of practice that make me much more worthy than many graduates." "What's your opinion?" "Alright... you will understand everything when I explain it." "You will explain it to him another day, Don Effren." "Let him speak his mind." "I've heard it a hundred times already." "One time he even succeeded in convincing me." "Excuse me." "Mr Mayor will lose his mind if he gives free rein to his emotions." " Want to taste?" " I don't drink." "Thank you." "You don't know what you're missing." "I'm listening to you, Don Effren." "You see, Doctor." "They're all crazy people in this village." "That's the explanation for all the strange things happening here." "You see, it's much more simple than Don Victor's religious explanation." "Alright." "I'd like to believe you but what's the relation then with all these deaths happening on each full moon." "There's a strange series of cardiac failures going on since the death of the Count caused by a sort of collective hysteria." "concentrating on a single individual." "A madness that stretches to the point of fleshing out the ghost of the countess to cover up something that doesn't exist." "Until the frenzy and the physical exhaustion provokes the heart failure." "It's a very personnel opinion." "I'm not in the know of all the events but some other time" "I would be very pleased to have further explanations from you." "Thank you very much for offering your theories." "Not at all Sir, I'm honored that you did listen to me." "It's daylight soon." "You can go now." "Our guest is sleeping." "I put a narcotic in his meal." "We're attesting that Count Siegfried Von Frankenhausen is legally marrying Eugenia G." "de la Serva, heiress of the title of marchioness." "No, that's not what I'm looking for." "Look." "Look at the birth certificate of the little Brunhilde." "The little Brunhilde born by her father's will, the Count Frankenhausen..." "No nothing there." "This list." "Here is the list of the people who died from this strange disease." "I keep a separate register." "The bodies are also at hand near the cemetery." "In a kind of holy place." "You did not bury them yet?" "Of course not!" "We'll bury them when we're certain that the devil has nothing to do with their deaths." "It's possible they'll stay there forever." "There are 23 bodies." "Including Mrs Countess who was the first." "So Father you really don't know who the Count Frankenhausen was?" "Neither me nor anyone else." "The Marquis gave his daughter to someone pretending to be the Count Frankenhausen?" "That's it." "He paid dearly for his foolishness." "Since the disappearance of the Count and the death of his daughter he never went out of the hacienda." "Nobody visited him, not even I." "Well, excepting you." "And Mrs Brunhilde?" "Nobody seen her since then." "Some people say she accompanied the father she loved so much to the abysmal depths of hell." "Or Satan took her as he had brought her on Earth." "I suppose you don't believe a word of this." "Why not?" "Mr. Marquis who believed in him now forswears God." "Coming from Count Frankenhausen I find nothing astonishing since he was an heretic." "Did you already see Count Frankenhausen's coat of arms?" "Never." "Even when I had the run of the place at the hacienda" "I never saw it either on his clothes nor on his carriage where the nobility usually stamp it." "To tell the truth..." "I've always find this very odd." "If my suspicions get confirmed there's nothing odd in this." "It is very clear concerning a man who tries to hide his origin." "Count Von Frankenhausen's coat of arms is very recognizable." "Anyone seeing it once never forgets it." "On a black background which represents night, a German shield with a silver skull stamped with a red gothic "F" on the forehead." "It symbolizes the death of the first-born of each generation." "A Count crown with the spread wings above, also black as the night, of a vampire." "A vampire!" "I was looking for something to read." "I can't sleep." "Doctor, it is forbidden to enter this room." "You do not make tribute to the hospitality of Mr Marquis disturbing his habits." "I didn't know." "I will apologize to your master tomorrow." "But tell me, where did the young lady who fainted there a moment ago, go to?" "I don't know what you're talking about." "There's no young girl around here." "What do you mean?" "I just saw her with my own eyes." "I tell you again there's no young girl around here." "Are you kidding me?" "I've just seen her there, there!" "This place, Doctor, does not agree with you." "You should go back to Mexico." "before you regret coming here." "Do you think I'm crazy?" "I don't think anything." "Let me go!" "Now get out of here and never come into this room again." "Mr Marquis doesn't like people nosing in his business without asking him." "If Father Victor learns about this violation..." "We're doing this for mankind's sake." "Anyway, we've got to be careful." "Nobody must suspect us." "It's amazing!" "I had never seen such likeness..." "Likeness to whom?" "To the young girl I saw in the Hacienda of Spirits." "She has the same clothes." "It's the Countess soul!" "Even if she looks like a ghost I don't think it's the Countess." "It's part of the mystery that I want to solve." "That's it!" "Look at the marks!" "It confirms my suspicions." "Count Frankenhausen... is a vampire!" "Vampire?" " A vampire you say, Sir?" " That's it." "A living vampire, a murderer, master of these dead people apparently harmless but in fact as dangerous as him." "Because they're also vampires." " You mean that my son too..." " Yes, Mr Mayor." "He's also a vampire." "I saw the mark." "But he's a dead vampire." "His immobility is temporary." "He's like the others, the victim... of a kind of catalepsy." "They only wait for the sign to get out of their coffin and transform themselves into a danger worse than death." "Does your Lordship know when they're getting out?" "With certainty." "At the exact moment" "Count Frankenhausen will die, his heart run through with a stake." " We're in great peril." " We should get out!" "No harm will come to us as long as your friend keeps his torch lit." "Fire is the worst enemy of living vampires." "The vampire!" "Bring the fire!" "Another victim of the vampire." " But it's not the full moon yet." " It doesn't matter." "Count Frankenhausen became wild when he saw us violating the grave of his wife." " We must end this once and for all." " You're right." "We must end this or he might end us!" "We made him wild." "I'm leaving now before it happens..." "Even if you bury yourself at the other end of the world he will find you." "It's not only on us, on this village that this terrible danger will spread but on all humankind if we don't put an end to him." "Doctor, you told me that you were some sort of expert in this case." "We're at your orders." "What shall we do?" "Burn the corpses." "I must set an example." "My son first." "Stop there!" "Stop in the name of God!" "I am the representative of authority in this village and no one will prevent me from taking the appropriate action to stop further victims." "I forbid you!" "You would go against the salvation of mankind from the worst scourge plaguing this earth?" "Best way to end this is to reduce victims to ashes." "If you want to burn another corpse you will have to burn mine first!" "I'll dispose of my son as I please." "Any way you touch him I will excommunicate you." "Don't do that, Mr Mayor!" "It would mean war between the neighbours in the village." "Adding more misfortune to all this misery." "I'll find a way to repel the vampires invasion." "When will you do that, Dr?" "We can't wait any longer." " Give me some time." "I'll succeed." " You have to succeed Dr because you're guilty of this abomination and I could excommunicate you and drop the anathema on your head for that." "The Father is the guilty man." "I hold him responsible in front of the justice of men and in front of his superiors if there's another victim!" "We'll see that on the next full moon." "Raise!" "I command you!" "Raise!" "You must fulfill the command of our blood." "As every Frankenhausen before we're working our way out until the end." "Do not scream." " Who are you?" " A friend come to save you." " Save me from what?" " One day you will learn." "Now run back to the village." "And if you want to live do not look back!" "Or else the gaze of this woman would plunge you into the most horrible of all nights." "Go away!" "Go away, do as I say!" "Quick, lead me to the room of the Miss." "What all this noise means?" "." "You're right on time." "It seems that this fool is unable to speak." "He knows how but he can't speak." "His tongue has been cut?" "Exactly, Doctor." "He lost it because he was too talkative." "Brunhilde, my dear Brunhilde!" "At last I learn her name." " What happened to my niece, Dr?" " I will explain everything Mr Marquis but first I must examine her." "I fear for her life." "Come this way." "Whoever knows too much puts his life in danger." "I do not know what to diagnosis." "All this is so weird." "My God... don't take her away from me too." "She's all I have left." "Come on, calm down, Mr Marquis." "Your excellency knows I'm not a physician." "That's why I worried so much seeing the first symptoms on her." "Glassy eyes, pallor mortis, dilated pupils and above all no pulse." "All this made me believe it was a cardiac accident." "Something serious." "But now the danger is removed." "What do you mean, Dr?" "Tell me the truth." "I'd like to, Mr Marquis but I'm missing the link to make the chain complete." "I don't understand." "Have faith in me, Mr Marquis." "That's all I can tell you for now." "But take it easy, your excellency." "If the symptoms I described to you were cardiac your niece would already be dead by now." "But look at her." "It looks like she's sleeping." "Exactly, she's sleeping but her sleep is not normal." "She seems to be in hypnotic state." "You mean she's under hypnosis?" "We can only be certain when she wakes up." "If she doesn't remember anything at all there will be no doubt then." "It's the main characteristic of these psychic conditions." "The patient is acting according to the hypnotizer's will unknowing of what he's doing." "On this ground I know how to move." "It's mine." "Take it easy, your excellency." "Who's the cursed man who did that to her?" "Mr Marquis." "You are the most tiresome person I know!" "What do you want?" "It's time to take your potion." "It is a sedative." "My nerves are on edge." "I'm going to my room." "In case the Miss wakes up call me as soon as you can." "If she doesn't I will come back after you've had a rest." "Someone must stay by her side." "I will stay." "Luckily I got here right on time." "If you come in again without me ordering you" "I'll give you a hard time!" "I'll do it as many times as I deem necessary." "Your excellency is so reckless." "And you are totally disrespectful." "It doesn't matter to me." "I must protect you above all." "I will save you even if it means sacrificing everyone else." "My niece comes first." "If I kept quiet till now it was only to save her from the terrible fate threatening her." "But my patience has limits." "Mine is limitless and will be rewarded soon." "Here is my reward." "Speak clearly or I'll kill you!" "What have you got here?" "I will give it only to my master." "It's me your master!" "Give." "My master is Count Frankenhausen." "I'm sorry, Doctor." "I thought you were already in bed." "Miss is awake?" "No, it's only a glass of wine sent by Mr Marquis to help you recover from your exhaustion." " Thanks a lot." "Give it to me." " No, no, allow me." "What happened in this room?" "It's nothing." "I was looking for something and since I couldn't find it..." "You see..." "I will ask for someone to come and pick up your clothes." "I will clean up, don't worry." "Thanks a lot." "See you tomorrow." "Try to relax." "I forgot, you can sleep easy." "Miss Brunhilde won't wake up before tomorrow." "How do you know that?" "It often happens to her." "She's a sleepwalker." "A sleepwalker?" "Doctor, you saw her during one of her crisis." "You remember in the library?" "It's just that Mr Marquis is a little ashamed of the fact." "It's a bit silly, don't you think?" "Yes, it's not his fault." "That's what I think but Mr marquis doesn't want people to learn this and that's why he doesn't let her out of the hacienda." "He even goes to the point of denying her existence." "As he would have done so if you had asked about her... on that night." "A sleepwalker?" "Please, I beg you, do not speak about it to Mr Marquis." "You remember when I told you I was missing a link to complete the chain." "Yes." "I found it." "And Frau Hildegarda gave it to me." "How?" "I don't understand." "When I was in my room she came to visit me and tried to convince me your niece was only suffering from a sleepwalking crisis." "That's what she told you?" "She forbid me to talk about it with you because you're supposedly ashamed." " Wretched, you'll see!" " It's not the proper way to react, Mr Marquis." "We must fight her with her own weapons." "The secret." "If she knew that we know, we're lost." "I only know that Count Frankenhausen suffers from a ghastly hereditary disease and that my niece will escape only by following the same path than her father when he dies." "There's no other remedy than human blood." "Who told you this monstruosity?" "Hildegarda." "She revealed Count Frankenhausen's awful secret to me." "He's a vampire and Brunhilde will become a vampire like him." "That's why I agreed to be the accomplice of so much crimes." "Your excellency?" "Yes, to save my niece" "I would give my own life." "Your excellency doesn't know that blood is vampire's food and that each new victim becomes a threat to society?" "Continuing like this neither your Lordship nor the Miss nor anyone'll be able to escape." "Then it means I've been misleaded?" "It can't be." "Unfortunately it can." "It's horrible but I can't step back." "You can't come back in time but you can repair the harm you've done." "And maybe you'll be able to save Miss Brunhilde if you help me." "If you save her I will give you everything you want, Doctor." "Everything I have." "I said maybe I can save her but I'm not certain." "The experiments I had in mind coming here revolve around the applications of a liquid named "goric acid"" "which according to my master is the only way to fight the vampire disease." "If my good friend Alexandre said so then it's the truth." "What are you waiting for then?" "Here is my niece." "Let's not lose any time." "Come on, calm down, Mr Marquis." "It's not as easy as you might think." "Now more than before." "The instructions for the fabrication of goric acid has been stolen." "They've been stolen from you here in my house?" " Who?" " I don't know." "I think it's Frau Hildegarda." "Frau?" "Yes it's probably her." " I remember now, she spoke about a reward." " It doesn't matter now." "I think I will be able to reproduce the formula from memory." "I'm going back to Mexico because I need to use a laboratory." "No, don't go back to Mexico." "Count Frankenhausen was a real alchemist." "And you will find here an exceptional laboratory with full equipment." " She's waking up." " Don't raise your voice." "Let her wake up alone." "Before she wakes up, some last advice." "Tell me everything." "Have faith in me, Mr Marquis." "Don't say a word to anyone and follow blindly my recommendations." "I will do what you ask." "She must not know I'm not a physician." "Don't be afraid my dear." "This young man is one of my very good friends." "I introduce you to Dr Ulysses Alvaran." "Doctor?" "What's going on?" "You were seriously ill but now the danger is past." " I was ill?" " Yes my darling." " You don't remember anything?" " About what?" "About your illness, you don't remember anything, any details?" "Try to remember Brunhilde." "The Doctor only thinks about your well-being." "Why?" "What's the matter with me?" "It's what I'm trying to discover Miss." "From your answer I could make a diagnosis." "Tell me." "What's the last thing you remember?" "Have faith and answer him." "I don't remember anything." "Just that I fell asleep and now I'm waking up." "Are you sure?" "Absolutely." "I have no reason to lie to you." "The Doctor only wants to know more about your illness." "It's enough for the moment, Mr Marquis." "You see, your excellency, everything becomes clearer." "Yes Dr, you were right." "What do you suggest?" "The little Miss should lead a normal life, go out and take a ride by foot or by horse, as she wishes." " But it could..." " It's an order, Mr Marquis." "And now she must rest because dawn is coming." "I found the writings, Mr Count." "Method to obtain "acid goric"" "by Count Cagliostro." "Here is the answer." "But you won't have my skin Count Cagliostro." "You don't want to be cured, your excellency?" "Of course not, Hildegarda." "Do you know what it means for me this terrible disease" "Count Gagliostro is talking about in here?" "If it can't be stopped the day will come when mankind will be completely replaced by vampires." "How horrible, Mr Count!" "Do not be silly, Hildegarda." "It will be a glorious day for the Frankenhausen!" "The entire world under the rule of our family." "Dead vampires are forever slaves of the living vampire who killed them." "I'm this vampire!" "As each first-born vampire of my ancestors." "Nobody will stop the Frankenhausen from ruling the world." "We must do this to gain some time until I can find in the laboratory of the hacienda the goric formula." "What's this?" "It's a liquid that can be injected into a vampire and doesn't require burning them." "It will allow us to erase those blood-sucking demons, living or dead, and all the evil they bring with them." "I will need a lot of time to get the liquid... and the required quantity to destroy all the vampires around us." "Because this liquid can only be found in mandrakes." "Mandrakes?" " Yes." "But not the common ones." "It's in another variety, very hard to find, with black flowers instead of yellow." "Near the death lagoon mandrakes with black flowers are growing." "Yes, I know." "How'd you know since you just arrived here, your Lordship?" "I was certain because mandrakes only grow on vampire lands." "And they must grow in your area since the coming of Count Frankenhausen." "Absolutely Doctor." "The first flowers appeared at this time." "I came looking for these plants." "And I have the formula to obtain from their roots, equally black, the goric acid." "So tell me if you're ready to help me." "Without a doubt Doctor." "Not with me in anyway." "Presencio, you can't let us down when we need your help." "I don't want to have anything to do with death, corpses and vampires." "You can order me to do anything else but for such a sacrilege, as father would say, don't count on me, your Lordships." "You're deserting!" "It certainly is as his Highness says but me I'm getting out of here." "Would you rather be transformed into such a monster?" "No." "No, I don't." "Dear lord, hear my pray, don't let the vampires drink my blood tonight." "Sit down there and obey the doctor!" "The only thing you have to do is cut and sharpen the stakes." "Did you understand him?" "Try to avoid suspicion." "Otherwise Don Victor will ruin things like the other night." "Then, I don't have to go to the cemetery with you?" "Yes, because we can't do it alone." "No, no!" "And thousand times no!" "You're so silly!" "Didn't you understand the things the doctor was telling us?" "Of course I understood." "He said a vampire dies when you stick a stake in his heart." " And he can't leave his tomb." " Not always." "Sometimes the stakes is all we need." "Sometimes it doesn't work" "Oh, no!" "That just make things worse." "And, if a corpse catches us when we try to kill it?" "They can't move, I guarantee they can't." "They could attack with stake and all." "Then, something like that would mean our complete destruction." "For mankind... it will be... an invasion of vampires." "I'm a sinner, father, I'm a sinner!" "Come on, come on, get up now." "My soul is lost, my soul is lost!" "Quiet, please, quiet." "You've sinned but not because you're bad, only because you're an ignorant." "You think a dead man can come to life when he wants to?" "Because you put a stake in his heart... he can't come back to life on Judgment Day?" " But the doctor said..." " Yes, yes," "I know what the doctor said." "But you mustn't repeat it, because then I'll really consider you a sinner." "No, God, no!" "I don't want to lose my soul." "This are only superstitions." "Only superstitions." "And you..." "you mustn't do what the doctor orders you." "I won't, father, I won't." "I was so scared that my nervous system began to fail me." "Watch this!" "You mustn't have fear from the dead, fear the living, because most of them are evil and ignorant." "Yes, father, yes." "I'll be careful to do that." "But I tremble when I remember sticking the stakes." "Forget all you saw there last night or you'll tremble more." "Look, the people of this village..." " are more stupid than all the others." " Thank you, father." "You're welcome." "If those idiots find out the dead can return, anything can happen." "It would be such a mess, even God wouldn't know the end." "I order you, not to open your mouth." "Just as you said, my mouth is closed." "At the right moment, I'll take care... to remove that sacrilegious doctor from village." " Is the view nice?" " Marvelous!" "I never thought that the Black Lagoon could be so nice." " In that case, was the trip worthwhile?" " Of course." "I just regret I didn't come before this." " And your father's forbidding?" " I can't understand it." "But now that I see this wonderful view here it's more confusing." " I don't know why?" " Maybe because he adores you." "He's afraid you might get hurt in an accident." "Like my mother." "Yes, that could be the reason." "Poor mom and poor dad." " What happened to him?" " Come on, forget these sad thoughts." "Yes..." "Brunhilde!" "Brunhilde!" " What happened?" " Listen!" "Brunhilde!" "I hear nothing." "My name..." "Someone called my name." "And the voice comes from there, from the lagoon." "Brunhilde!" "You're still weak." "And you experience what we call, auditory hallucinations." "No, it's not a hallucination, believe me." "Since I arrived here it's all very strange." "But now the lagoon is calling me in such an irresistible manner." "Brunhilde!" " Stop, where are you going?" " It's calling me." " I'm sure that's my mother's voice." " Your mother is dead!" "It's her, listen!" "It can't be your mother." "She's dead." " It's her, it's her!" " Come to your senses, Brunhilde!" "Your mother is buried at the cemetery, I saw her!" "You saw her?" " Dead?" " Well..." "I saw her grave." "I didn't see her body." "Me neither." "I didn't see her body after she died." "I wasn't allowed..." "I wasn't allowed!" "That's all in the past now." "You mustn't look back in life." "You must look forward, and keep living." "That our children can live as well." "Brunhilde, don't cry anymore." "I beg you, don't cry." "Your tears make me very sad." "I don't know if I should tell you." "But I have to." "I don't want your gratitude for what I've been doing for you." "Because actually there is a good reason for it." "I don't follow you." "That's all I can say." "Later on I'll find the way to tell you, I think you'll understand me then." "Meanwhile, I beg you, have confidence to me, and accept a present to recall this moment." "A crucifix." "It was my mother's." " I can't accept it." " Please, accept it, Brunhilde." "Just wearing it always will help us in your healing." " And, if I lose it?" " God's will, don't you think?" "In that case, can you help me?" "Well..." "I think we better go to work now." "Didn't you come to see the lagoon?" "No, I came to get mandrake." " Are you kidding me?" " Not at all." "I'm completely serious." "I need mandrake... for certain experiments, and people assure me that I find it here." "I can show you a field close to the house with plenty of them." "The kind I need grows here only." "It's a very strange species." "This kind has black roots, the flowers are black as well." "I never imagined that it could exist Mandrake with this color." "And so close to my house." "Now I need your authorization to come along when needed." "Laboratory is all yours." "Here is the key, keep it." "It's the only one." "The other key got lost with Count Frankenhausen." "I hope I remember the process to get Boric Acid." "Anyway, I'm very grateful, Mr. Marquis." "The one who must be grateful is me..." "For your interest." "It's very easy to be interested for such a lovely girl as your grand daughter." "Excuse me I insist that you remember what I told you about her." "She doesn't know about his father's way of life... nor the terrible destiny that awaits her if you fail." "I repeat, I won't tell anything." "Don't worry." "Today I gave her a gift that will somehow protect her." "A crucifix." " Good morning." " Good morning." "What are you doing here so early?" "The crucifix you gave me has disappeared." "How?" "In the same mysterious way that my others crucifixes disappeared before." "I went to sleep with it on and when I woke up it wasn't there." "Someone took it from you when you were asleep." "I always lock the door when I go to sleep." "It's strange, very strange." "What?" "The black roots have disappeared as well." " Was the door locked?" " Yes, I'm sure of that." "That's the only key." "Someone else must have a key." "I guess that the same person took your crucifix and my black roots." "I'm sure that someone wants me to fail with my experiment." "We have to know who the culprit is!" "Do you trust me?" "Of course." " I need your help." " Sure, what must I do?" "Grandfather..." "Guess where we've been this afternoon." "No, I'm not a good guesser." "At the Death Lagoon." "Again?" "Don't you know I dislike seeing you there?" "Why, Mr. Marquis?" " What's wrong about it?" " Nothing." "It's just superstition." "I'm concerned that she goes to such a hideous place." "Hideous, grandfather?" "It's the most beautiful place I ever saw." "You haven't seen many places." "Excuse me, Mr. Marquis." "It was my fault." "Don't worry." "But I hope it doesn't happen again." "Don't worry, your excellence." "I won't ask her again to help me collect more black mandrake." "You must see it, grandfather." "We collected a large amount." "I marked on this map the place where we hide it." "Can you keep it, Miss Brunhilde?" "I'd be glad to, doctor." "A map to hide roots!" "Yes, grandfather." "Same as pirates made to hide their treasures." "All this will seem very childish to you, Mr. Marquis." "But this map is more important than any pirate treasure." "I do suspect who the culprit in all this might be." "You're the one who narcotize his victims to rob them, using the secret passages of this old building." "I can't believe it, Frau Hildegarda, supremely loyal, attempting against the daughter of his master, the Count Frankenhausen." "attempting against the daughter of his master, the Count Frankenhausen." "And I'll keep doing it!" "And I'll keep doing it!" " But why?" " You just said it!" " But why?" " You just said it!" "For loyalty to my master." " I don't understand you." " Ask your friend, the doctor." "He knows more than you can imagine." "Don't listen to her, she's completely nuts!" "Maybe I'm nuts, but I'll be always... helping my master, the Count of Frankenhausen." "What are you saying?" "You're helping my father?" "That's it." "You know where he is!" "Don't listen to her, she's completely insane." "But I tell the truth and will tell all the truth." "Shut up, or I'm capable of...!" "I'm not scared by your threats," "I'll tell her." "Brunhilde will finally know everything that her father..." "Why'd you do it?" "It was necessary!" "I can't explain it now!" "You can't explain it now..." "Always the same answer!" " You think I'm a child?" " No, you're not." "But I'm not authorized to speak, nor permited to speak about it." "But I've the right to know about my father, who can forbid that?" "The Marquis." "Brunhilde!" "Brunhilde!" "Open up, daughter!" "Open up!" "Oh, grandfather!" "What happened here?" "She wanted to tell Brunhilde something about her father and..." " I had to silence her." " I don't get it." "But, if that is true, you acted correctly." "I've the right to know, I want to know!" "You'll know, my daughter, you'll know." "Hildegarda is being too impertinent and it was necessary to stop her." "For now, we'll lock her up." "You, help the doctor to carry her." "Give me the candles, I'll guide you." "My dear, stay here and try to get a little rest." "We'll talk tomorrow." "Follow me." "Presencio, there's gonna be thunder." "What?" "You didn't hear it?" " God, help him!" " There's gonna be thunder." "Come on, Mr. Efren." "They're coming, they're coming!" "They came out the tombs!" "They came out the tombs!" " Who came out the tombs?" " The vampires!" " Are you drunk?" " No!" "They're coming to the village!" "We must warn the priest!" "I'll do it." "They will kill us..." "Vampires!" "Vampires!" "They're coming!" " Let's go, Mr. Efren!" " What did that idiot say?" "Are you deaf?" "Vampires!" "They're coming from the cemetery." "Are you kidding me?" "Hurry, if they catch us, we'll look like a freshly squeezed juice." " You're an ignorant, a retarded." " Let's go, I believe him!" " What vampires?" " They're coming to the village!" "Ignorant, that's just a tale." "Maybe, but I will warn the mayor." "Vampires!" " Vampires!" " Ignorant, retarded." "Vampires don't exist!" "What happened, Lazaro?" "Yes, yes, something serious must be happening..." " if you're here at this time..." " Grandfather!" " Grandfather, what happened?" " Don't know, daughter, don't know." " They're ringing the bells in the village!" " Yes, I hear it but I don't know why." " Maybe a fire?" " That's possible." "With this storm, a flash could easily start a big fire." "But don't be afraid." "Go to bed and rest." "I'll send somebody to the village to get some information." "Nobody must left the house." " What happened?" " What's wrong, Ulysses?" " Nothing, nothing, nothing at all." " Why did you say we should stay?" "Because I know what's happening." "Those bells aren't calling for help." "They're warning us about an attack." " Warning?" " Yes, we must defend ourselves." "That's the reason we'll stay here." "We'll be stronger together." "There's not much time left." "Come with me, doctor." " You guess that...?" " It's not a guess." "I'm very sure." "You told me that could only happen if he dies..." "He's dead." "How is it possible?" "We fought and I had to kill him before I got killed." " He's in the laboratory." " What are you talking about?" "For God's sake, tell me what's happening!" "Why must we defend ourselves?" "And from who?" "Ok, Brunhilde." "We're going to explain it to you." "The time has come, and you have to know." "Wait!" "Don't open, it could be them!" "I'll take a look." "Open up!" "Open up!" "It's us!" "They're coming!" "They're coming!" "They left his tombs." " What happened to you?" " Don't worry, I'll tell you later." "The villagers are hiding in the church." "Everybody but Mr. Efren." "He's still on the street, insulting us." "He says we're ignorant and retarded." "We came to warn everybody that they're nearing the village." " We must flee!" "Come on!" " You must stay here if you want to live!" "They are gonna get us!" "They won't get us." "The bells warned us." "We wanted to prepare our defense before you came." "You knew it?" "The doctor has reasons to know what's happening." "How will we do it?" "Placing at each door and window black roots from the mandrake." "That will stop them." "But it's too late to go to the Death Lagoon." "They'll be here soon!" "No, I have a lot of black roots" "Doesn't need to be now, but somebody has to tell me what's going on." "Who will leave the graves?" "Who's coming?" "Vampires!" "Doors and windows are secured." "Now we can only wait." " You told her?" " Everything." "Everything but that you killed the Count of Frankenhausen." "Is she very impressed?" "Yes." "She doesn't want to believe it." "I'll tell her in due course." "Come on." "Be calm." "It's horrible, horrible." "Mourning won't help you." "Now you'll understand a lot of things." "And like I always say... trust me." "I'll save you." "Thank you." "Brunhilde!" "Brunhilde!" "It's my mother's voice!" "Don't go!" " It's my mom, it's my mom!" " You can't go outside!" " My dear..." " I want to see my mother!" "No, you can't!" " Father!" " Brunhilde!" "Paulino..." "My son!" "Your son is dead." "My son's here, I have to see him." " You'll die!" " I don't care, I want to hug him." "Anyone who goes out will become a vampire." "He's my son, my son!" "Don't listen to the voices." "It's just a trap!" "Be brave." "They'll come every night." "Think of the terrible suffering of those bodies" "Damned to do it every night, without rest." "We have to save them." "When will it be over?" " When will this agony be done?" " Not until I get the Boric Acid." "I promise to work hard!" "They're calling my dad!" " The Count of Frankenhausen is here." " Here?" " In this place?" " Yes." " I want to see him!" " It's not possible now." " Why?" " Because he's dead." " Dead?" " Worse than dead." " He became a Vampire." " No!" " That's impossible." " Unfortunately, yes." " He's at the lab." " I need to see him." "My dear, you don't need to see such a horrible thing." "I don't care, he's my father." " I beg you, I need to see him." " No, not yet." "Wait till I obtain the product that returns Frankenhausen to its natural state." "Then you can see him, see his corpse!" "Because he's now just a vampire, a dead vampire!" "That's not true!" "You're lying!" "The Count of Frankenhausen isn't dead!" "He can't die!" " Calm down, Frau Hildegarda." " No!" "He's not dead." "The Count of Frankenhausen will become the world's master." "When he transforms everybody into vampires." "He'll become the master of us all, he can't die!" "Shut up, Hildegarda." "Don't say such nonsense." "The Count is dead!" "No!" "The Marquis lies, he's also lying!" "The Count isn't dead!" "The Count of Frankenhausen is dead!" "I killed him!" "I had to do it for save my life." "To protect you all!" "Unfortunately I understand that you don't realize the danger we are facing... if you don't see it with your own eyes." "I wanted to avoid this horrible show, but I found out it was useless." "I'll show you." "The mayor!" "Mr. Efren!" "He's dead." "For God's sake!" "I knew it would happen, never saw him so drunk." "Alcohol had nothing to do with his death." "A vampire killed him." "For being an infidel!" "He chose to stay outside instead of being safe in God's house." "May God have mercy on your soul." " Amen." " Amen." "Priest." "We came to ask your help." "What can I do for you?" "I know what can protect us against vampires." "Please, bring together the townspeople to explain how." "Excuse me." "Excuse me, son, that..." "I take precautions." "Because you always offer me sacrilegious actions." "Tell me what it is." "Priest, look what happened to Mr. Efren for being sceptical." "It's alright." "I'll do it." "Brunhilde!" "We come to get you!" "Finally..." "Finally I got it!" "I got it!" "I got it!" "I got it!" "Here you are!" "It's Boric Acid." "The vampires' threat is over." "The vampires' threat is over!" "It's marvelous." "It's marvelous, doctor." "What a joy!" "Hildegarda!" "We come to get you!" " Dad..." " Don't go!" "Dad!" "There is no danger." "Frankenhausen is no longer a vampire." "He's just a harmless cadaver, like any other." "The same will happen to the others when I put the acid in his veins." "And my granddaughter, will she be cured?" "Of course, Mr. Marquis." "When I treat her with Boric Acid, the curse of Frankenhausen's family will disappear forever." "Farewell, Count of Frankenhausen, greetings to Mr. Efren." "Here lies the Frankenhausen's Count... and Frau Hildegarda, his loyal servant who didn't abandon them... even in the journey to the afterlife."
