Bram Stoker's Dracula

A fifteenth-century Transylvanian prince renounces God and becomes an immortal vampire after his beloved wife takes her own life upon receiving a false report of his death. Centuries later, he travels to London under the guise of a Transylvanian nobleman, becoming obsessed with the fiancée of a young solicitor he holds captive in his castle, believing her to be his long-dead wife reincarnated. A band of friends, guided by the determined Professor Van Helsing, pursues the Count across Europe in a desperate bid to destroy him and free those he has corrupted.
