Jonathan Harker gets more than he bargained for with his mysterious pretty-boy client. Dracula is single and his first choice for love – She’s just his type. – is Lucy, Jonathan’s fiancé. It’s time to break out the garlic wreaths, holy water, and crucifixes for this hilarious, slapstick comedy loosely based on the novel by Bram Stoker.
