Bloodlines: Dracula's Family Tree (2003)

Synopsis of Bloodlines: Dracula's Family Tree

Boston-based professors Radu Florescu and Raymond T. McNally attempt to unlock one of the greatest mysteries in modern literature by exploring the history of the cruel, 13th Century prince said to have inspired Bram Stoker's Dracula, one of the most influential novels ever written. An historic Romanian tyrant who earned the nickname Vlad the Impaler due to his legendary sadism, Vlad Tepes was said to have been the central inspiration for Stoker's timeless tale of terror. In order to ensure that his research is accurate, Florescu - a direct descendent of Tepes' longtime archenemy - embarks on a journey to discover just what connection his ancestors shared with the ruler whose evil knew no boundaries. As the investigation intensifies, Florescu's uncle perishes under suspicious circumstances and a series of unexplainable events at Tepes' notorious Transylvania castle lead him to suspect that whatever curse the dark prince once cast over his land still endures to this very day. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
