The Dark Legacy of Prince Dracula
Abraham Van Helsing (reading from a book about vampire history) "Here occurs the shocking and frightening history of the wild, berserk Prince Dracula, how he impaled people and roasted them, boiled their heads in a kettle, how he skinned them alive and hacked them to pieces and then... drank their blood." Ja, Dracul... "The blood is the life"...
The Identity of the Undead Monster
Count Dracula There is no life in this body. I am nothing, lifeless, soulless, hated and feared. I am dead to all the world - hear me! I am the monster that breathing men would kill. I am Dracula.

The Enduring Nature of Vampires
Abraham Van Helsing (about Lucy) She lives beyond the grace of God, a wanderer in the outer darkness. She is "Vampyr", "Nosferatu". These creatures do not die like the bee after the first sting, but instead grow strong and become immortal once infected by another Nosferatu. So, my friends, we fight not one beast, but legions that go on age after age after age, feeding on the blood of the living.
The Princess: A River of Sadness
Mina Murray The princess... She's a river, filled with tears of sadness and...heartbreak.
Questioning Ambition and Passion in Relationships
Lucy Westenra (to Mina) Is your ambitious John Harker forcing you to learn that ridiculous machine? When he could be forcing you to perform unspeakable acts of desperate passion on the parlour floor!
Mina's Conflicted Emotions and Dark Realizations
Mina Murray (to Van Helsing, while under the influence of Dracula's brides) You've been so good to me, Professor. I know that Lucy harbored secret desires for you. She told me. I too know what men desire. (kisses him) Will you cut off my head and drive a stake through my heart as you did poor Lucy, you murdering bastard?
Confronting an Unseen Monster in the Shadows
Abraham Van Helsing Gentlemen, we're not fighting some disease here. Those marks on your dear Miss Lucy's neck were made by something unspeakable out there - dead, but not dead. It stalks us for some dread purpose I do not yet comprehend. To live, it feeds on Lucy's precious blood. It is a beast, a monster!
Power and Condemnation in Eternal Hunger
Count Dracula (about to complete Lucy's transformation into a vampire) Your impotent men with their foolish spells cannot protect you from my power. I condemn you to living death. To eternal hunger for living blood!
The Madness of Humanity in Faith
Abraham Van Helsing We've all become God's madmen. All of us.
A Sister's Wedding Gift and Farewell
Lucy Westenra Mina, you've got to go to him. You've got to love him, and marry him right then and there. And I want you to take this, my sister. (gives Mina her ring) It's my wedding gift to you. Don't worry about spoiled little Lucy. I'll be all right. Tell Jonathan oceans of love.
Cultural Differences and Misplaced Faith
Count Dracula (noticing the crucifix Jonathan Harker wears) Do not put your faith in such trinkets of deceit! We are in Transylvania, and Transylvania is not England. Our ways are not your ways. And, to you, there shall be many strange things...
A Vision of an Enchanted Landscape

Desperation in the Face of Discovery
Count Dracula (Mina sees him violating Lucy in a wolf-like form) No! Do not see me!
The Nature and Weakness of Dracula
Abraham Van Helsing Vampires do exist. And this one we fight, this one we face, has the strength of twenty or more people, and you can testify for that, Mr. Harker. But he can also control the meaner things of life: the bat, the rodent, the wolf. He can appear as mist, as vapour, as fog, and vanish at will. Now all these things Dracula can do, but he is not free. He must rest in the sacred earth of his homeland to gain his evil power. It is here that we must find him and destroy him utterly.
Admiration and Insecurity Among Friends
Mina Murray (VO) (watching Lucy flirt with many suitors at the party) Lucy is a pure and virtuous girl. But, I admit that her free way of speaking shocks me sometimes. Jonathan says it is a defect of the aristocracy that they say what they please. The truth is that I admire Lucy, and I'm not surprised that men flock around her. I wish I were as pretty and as adored as she.
Learning from Beasts in Nature
Count Dracula (helping Mina befriend a wolf) He likes you. There is much to be learned from beasts.
Love's Power Over Darkness and Death
Mina Murray (as light illiminates the chapel) There, in the presence of God, I understood at last how my love could release us all from the powers of darkness. Our love is stronger than death.
The Music of the Night Creatures
Count Dracula (as wolves howl) Ahh, listen to them! (laughs) The children of the night. What sweet music they make!
The Allure and Danger of Absinthe
Count Dracula Absinthe is the aphrodisiac of the self. The green fairy who lives in the absinthe wants your soul. But you are safe with me.
The Connection Between Blood and Civilization
Abraham Van Helsing (giving a medical lecture) The vampire bat must consume 10 times its own weight in fresh blood each day, or its own blood cells will die. Cute little vermin, ja? Blood, and the diseases of the blood such as syphilis, will concern us here. The very name "venereal diseases", the "diseases of Venus", imputes to them divine origin. They are involved in that sex problem about which the ethics and ideals of Christian civilization are concerned. In fact, civilization and syphilization have advanced together.
Vampires and Their Daytime Vulnerability
Abraham Van Helsing Contrary to some beliefs, the vampire, like any other night creature, can move about by day - though it is not his natural time, and his powers are weak.(Dracula emerges from a box of earth in his younger form)
Invitation to the Carpathians
Count Dracula (in a letter to Jonathan Harker) My friend. Welcome to the Carpathians. I am anxiously expecting you. At the Borgo Pass, my carriage will await you and bring you to me. I trust your journey from London has been a happy one, and that you will enjoy your stay in my beautiful land. Your friend, D.

I am longing to hear all the news. It must be so nice to see strange countries. I wonder if we, I mean Jonathan and I, shall ever see them together...
