OVERVIEW

Three eminent gentlemen, William Hargood, Sam Paxton, and Jonathan Secker engage in sordid behaviours at a local brothel every month. Lord Courtley approaches them and offers them the chance to experience something sensational - raising Count Dracula from the dead in a black magic mass. Bored by their routine existences they agree.

They meet up at church to take part in a ceremony. Lord Courtly mixes the dried up blood of Dracula with his own in a goblet and asks the three to drink it. When the three renege, Lord Courtly drinks it instead. After drinking it, he falls to the ground and starts screaming. When he grabs onto the mens legs, the men kick him to death in a frenzy.

The three men leave, and Lord Courtly transforms into Dracula.

Dracula vows revenge on those who have killed his servant.
