Count Dracula has returned from the dead.
And he is not happy about it.
Determined to recreate his glory days, the Count boards a ship bound for Whitby. Unfortunately, a navigational mishap leaves him washed up in the far less atmospheric seaside resort of Scratford-on-sea.
Instead of crumbling abbeys and terrified villagers, Dracula finds teddy grabbers, sticky-floored fun pubs, and chippies that stay open until 2 a.m. Twenty-first-century England, it turns out, is deeply vulgar.
The only place with a hint of its former grandeur is the once-magnificent Imperial Hotel on the seafront — the perfect new lair for a resurgent Prince of Darkness.
There’s just one problem.
The hotel is currently occupied by a group of young offenders doing community service''' and they might just end up being Scratford’s last line of defence.
A dark, ridiculous horror-comedy perfect for fans of Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams.
Genre: Horror
