In 1913, charming, seductive, and sinister Count Dracula travels to England seeking an immortal bride, played by Frank Langella as a dominant, aggressive force, while Laurence Olivier portrays Prof. Abraham Van Helsing, who suspects what might have killed Mina's daughter, Lucy. The doctors realize that the only way to save Lucy is by destroying Dracula, and they manage to locate his coffin within the grounds of Carfax Abbey, but the vampire is waiting for them. Ultimately, it is Jonathan Harker and Van Helsing who board the ship carrying Dracula and Lucy as cargo bound for Transylvania, with Van Helsing using his remaining strength to throw a hook attached to a rope, tied to the ship's rigging, into Dracula's back, before Harker seizes his chance and hoists the count up through the cargo hold to the top of the ship's rigging.
