- Synopsis
- Countess Báthory, notorious both amongst the living and the undead, steps out of Vienna’s labyrinthine subterranean canals and back into the Upper World to track down a dangerous book that resurfaces through the ages, moving humans to tears and transforming vampires into ordinary mortals. Together with her lady’s maid, the “Beautiful Sleeper”, la “Comtesse Sanglante” begins searching for the book. They follow hidden clues, forging a bloody path through eerily beautiful Vienna and its surroundings. The two ladies are followed by the Countess’ pale nephew, Rudi Bubi von Strudl zu Buchtelau, a vegetarian vampire terrified by the sight of blood and flesh, and his opportunistic, Freudianism to Behaviourism-converted psychotherapist.
