Van Helsing

Where in the hell are we?

Transylvania.

This mysterious young woman claims to be a vampire hunter.

We must discover who this woman is.

Behold, Olivia Von Dracula.

Now I know why my mother sent me here.

No!!!!!

Stand back!

See what you did?

Look at that!

I should let them have you.

I saved them from an evil they didn't see.

Who is this assassin?

The other vampire hunter?

The villager, Florian, believes she emerged from the graveyard.

Like a phantom bathed in magic light.

Florian!

Florian, you have to kill Michaela!

Florian, you have to kill Michaela!!!

Take her!

Michaela?

How could she know?

Florian please!

Florian!

She's gonna try again!

She's gonna choose somebody else!

What does she mean, "try again"?

Try what?

I do not know.

This curious stranger will not live for us to find out.

Florian!

She's a vampire!

She's gonna choose somebody else!

You murdered their hope and you broke my master's heart!

Florian!

You deserve this!

You deserve it!

Florian! She's a vampire!

Florian please!

Death to the witch!

Kill her!

Ya!!!

We must act quickly.

The full moon approaches.

Begin the preparations.

But with the vessel dead and gone...

How will we prevail?

Life and death are mere obstacles

on my path to greatness.

But mother, we searched centuries for a woman

pure of heart and soul worthy of corruption by the Dark One-

There's still a way,

an ancient way seeped in darkness.

Sisters, gather fresh blood, and in abundance.

But the villagers, we were only taking them one at a time.

There is no time for discretion.

Go.

And you.

Find where they buried that piece of filth

that dared stand in my way.

I know where.

You better be sure.

She carried the mark of bewitchment.

Someone sent her here to thwart me.

Who?

Why?

Bring that wretched body to me so that I might study the mark.

Go!

And sisters, sever her head from her body

as soon as she is out of her grave.

We can take no more chances.

I have avenged your death, my love.

That assassin...

festers now in unsanctified ground

where she shall never find any peace.

It is time to prepare the body.

Prepare?

For the funeral.

Men do not know of these practices and should not.

You must go.

Who are you?

Really?

I saw you!

Saw me?

The true me?

Yes.

Ah.

But you must have had some idea of my powers.

What I called upon to deliver you a son!

You used tinctures.

Yes, hand-crafted myself.

So many innocent lives sacrificed,

their blood boiled down to its essence and fed

one drop at a time to the Countess to spark life in a dead womb.

You killed those missing villagers.

At your command.

You wanted a son!

No.

You told me you did not care at what cost!

No, I-I... I never knew.

I did not know.

Did you not?

No.

Not even in the depths of your soul?

Ah yes.

My accomplice after all.

Grab her.

This is what the mother fears enough to ask for her head.

The axe.

I would simply leave you to rot if it were up to me.

It's not.

Wait, Alexandra, don't make me kill you.

But how?

Who are you?

Go ask your brother.

Go!

Go!!!

Come closer and say that.

Bathory?

You're alive and you know my name.

How is this?

You're not gonna live long enough to find out.

Stop!

I do not wish to harm you!

Since when?

Witch.

Vampire.

Speak your truth.

What other reason have you to try to take my life?

You have no idea.

How is it that you're alive when I saw you hang from the gallows?

I'm pretty tough to keep down.

And you heal.

Damn right I do.

You need not kill me!

We wish for the same thing.

You're not a vampire.

I would burn myself alive if I were.

I'm a vampire hunter.

You hunt vampires?

Like my mother before me and her mother before her.

It's what we do.

Wow.

Seriously?

You find this surprising?

You could say that.

You're not a vampire, either.

There are more Sisterhood searching these woods.

It's not safe.

We must go.

Come!

We have much to discuss.

I know you're in grief.

Feeling betrayed as do we all.

Thinking her a saviour when she was a demon in disguise.

I should never have believed her.

I should have known she was evil.

Perhaps.

But now all our worries are over.

She's gone.

And all the curse she brought with her.

We can live in peace now.

Yeah.

Come on! Everyone!

Get your weapons to protect the village!

Florian, come on!

Yes, I'm coming, I'm coming!

Alexandra?

How are you-how are you human again?

This strange woman, she rose form her grave and sent me back.

Jack?

Yes.

She saved you.

She saved me. My brother...

Are you ok?

Are you ok?

Do not touch that.

It's dangerous.

Is that you in the painting... as a kid?

And your mother?

She taught me all I know.

How to hunt vampires, how to kill them.

She was the greatest of my people.

I'm sorry for your loss.

I've lost much in this fight against Michaela and her order.

She's a tough one to kill.

How would you know?

How are you a part of all of this?

You were never in the cards and now you are everywhere.

Why?

And what do you believe Michaela is trying to do?

Was trying.

Past tense.

Once Michaela is dead too, it's over.

The Dark One never rises.

Evil never reigns over anyone.

These readings grow more ominous with every turn.

I do not think we've conquered anything yet.

So I ask you, once again, who are you

and what do you know about this Dark One?
