Professor Abronsius and his young assistant Alfred travel to Transylvania to investigate rumors of vampires. They arrive at a remote inn where Alfred falls for Sarah, the innkeeper's beautiful daughter. When the seductive Count von Krolock kidnaps Sarah to make her his vampire bride, Alfred and the Professor infiltrate the Count's castle during a grand midnight ball. But they arrive too late — Sarah has willingly joined the undead, and the vampires' power proves greater than anyone imagined.
