London, September 1888. Jack the Ripper roams the streets. A scream rings out from beneath the stage of the Lyceum Theatre. A young 'actress' has been attacked, suffering peculiar bite wounds to her neck; an event that announces a series of strange, vampiric happenings, and thrusts an unwitting Bram Stoker - acting manager of the Lyceum and aspiring author - into the limelight. Perplexed hereon by the unsettling behaviour of 'the Guv'nor', the brilliant but mercurial actor, Henry Irving, and Irving's acclaimed leading lady, Ellen Terry, Stoker soon starts suspecting the worst. And then, another attack reveals a vicious Prussian baron, returned to London as a vampire seeking revenge.
