Dracula: Dead and Loving It Page #5

---

What does it mean, Professor?

Gentlemen, what I am about to say...

will shake the very foundation...

of every medical precept you hold dear.

We have entered

the realm of the supernatural.

Supernatural?

- Realm of the supernatural?

- Ja.

Lucy has been attacked...

by a creature that rises from its grave...

and sucks the blood of the living...

in order to prolong

its own unholy existence.

What we are dealing with here is...

a vampire.

- Vampire?

- Vampire?

What are you saying?

I'm saying, "vampire."

Professor, modern science

does not admit to such a fanciful creature.

Modern science, pish posh.

She has lost a great deal of blood, ja?

- Ja.

- Yet, look.

Where did all the blood go?

Look at the sheet, the pillowcase,

her nightgown.

Do you see anything?

How does your modern science

explain "zat?"

Can you explain "zat?"

I can't explain "zat."

No one can explain "zat!"

Are you asking us to believe...

that some creature

just flew in through that window...

bit Lucy on the neck,

and drank of her blood?

Exactly.

And tonight...

the foul thing will return.

It will suck on her life's fluid...

until it has drained her of every last drop.

And if she dies...

a victim of this unspeakable creature...

she will become one herself.

What?

She will become one herself.

What can we do

to protect her from this fiend?

- Seward.

- Yes?

Do you have any books on the occult?

They're right here.

- Do you have Transylvanian Folklore?

- No.

Do you have The Theory

and the Theology of the Evil Undead?

No.

- Do you have The Vampires of Prague?

- No.

Do you have Nosferatu?

Yes, we have Nosferatu.

We have Nosferatu today.

- It just came in the post.

- Here, give it to me, quick.

Here.

- There is a way to protect her.

- How?

"The creature is repelled by garlic.

"Lts purifying effect is anathema...

"to the tainted soul of the vampire."

I must move the coffin or the chandelier.

We brought you down here

so you'll be closer to us, my dear.

We'll be just down the hall in the study.

You must get a good night's rest

to regain your strength, my dear.

It's the only way to improve your health.

Would an enema help?

Come, we must go.

Sleep well, Miss Lucy.

The garlic will protect you.

Garlic.

- Renfield.

- Master?

It is time for you to serve your master.

- Come.

- Yes, master.

Those meddling idiots.

They want to prevent me

from entering Miss Lucy's bedroom.

- I want to take...

- Wait, master.

All right, I'm listening.

They have placed garlands of garlic

around her room.

What can I do, master?

I can't leave this cell.

Do you imagine I could not

take you out of here if I wish?

That these pathetic bars could stop me?
