A Gothic revenge tale where Dracula punishes three bourgeois men by turning their own sons into instruments of patricide, blending supernatural horror with family betrayal.

Three elderly distinguished gentlemen are searching for some excitement in their boring borgoueis lives and gets in contact with one of count Dracula's servants. In a nightly ceremony they restore the count back to life. The three men killed Dracula's servant and as a revenge, the count makes sure that the gentlemen are killed one by one by their own sons.
