The world’s most evil vampire lives again!
Dracula: Prince of Darkness (1966) begins when a group of travelers seeks shelter at a remote castle and unwittingly resurrects Count Dracula, who rises again to spread his reign of terror. As the vampire begins his deadly hunt, a battle between good and evil unfolds in the shadows of the Carpathian mountains. This atmospheric Hammer horror classic blends gothic chills, bloodthirsty suspense, and iconic menace in the return of a legendary creature of the night.
