The 1931 film saw the iconic character brought to the silver screen, and along with the other Universal Classic Monsters, defined the Hollywood horror genre.

The Dracula Film Collection includes four classic films from the original Universal releases including the terrifying classic starring Bela Lugosi, and the timeless films that followed. These landmark motion pictures continue to inspire countless remakes and adaptations that strengthen the vampiric legend to this day.

Disc One: Dracula (1931)

The original Dracula, starring Bela Lugosi, launched the Hollywood horror genre and defined the iconic look and frightening character of the famed vampire.

Towering ominously among the shadows of the Carpathian Mountains, Castle Dracula strikes fear in the hearts of the Transylvanian villagers below. After a naive real estate agent succumbs to the will of Count Dracula, the two head to London where the vampire sleeps in his coffin by day and searches for potential victims by night.

The inspiration for hundreds of subsequent remakes and adaptations, this classic film directed by Tod Browning is the signature adaptation of Bram Stoker’s story with its eerie passion, shadowy atmosphere and thrilling cinematography.

Disc Two: Dracula’s Daughter (1931)

This popular horror classic picks up where Dracula left off. Dr. Von Helsing (Edward Van Sloan), thinking he has rid London of all vampires, is instead arrested for murder. Just when Von Helsing’s fate seems sealed, the bodies suddenly disappear. Soon several people are found mysteriously killed, their bodies drained of all blood. Meanwhile, beautiful and mysterious Countess Marya Zaleska (Gloria Holden) appears in London. The troubled woman seeks the understanding Dr. Garth (Otto Kruger), Von Helsing’s psychiatrist, for consultation. A mysterious sequence of events surrounding a disoriented young girl (Nan Grey) leads Von Helsing and Garth to deduce the countess must be a vampire. They set off to Transylvania after the elusive countess to rescue Garth’s beautiful fiancée (Marguerite Churchill) in this engrossing thriller.

Disc Three: Son Of Dracula (1943)

The greatest movie vampire of all time renews his reign of terror in this atmospheric chiller from the 1940’s. Lon Chaney, Jr., known for his portrayals of the Wolf Man and Frankenstein’s monster, dons a black cape as Count Alucard (that’s Dracula spelled backwards), the bloodthirsty son of the famous Transylvanian vampire. When Katherine (Louise Allbritton), a beautiful Southern girl obsessed with thoughts of eternal life, invites the Count to come to her mansion in the U.S., she unleashes a Pandora’s box of horror on unsuspecting relatives and neighbors. Despite the heroic efforts of Robert Paige, her fiancé, Katherine becomes a disciple of the evil Count. Together they both set out to satisfy their unquenchable thirst for human blood with nocturnal killings in director Robert Siodmak’s excursion into the horror genre.

Disc Four: House Of Dracula (1945)

They’re all here – The Wolf Man, Dracula, Frankenstein’s Monster, angry villagers and even a hunchback assistant in the House of Dracula! Horror veterans Lon Chaney Jr. as the Wolf Man and John Carradine as Dracula arrive at the laboratory of Dr. Edelmann (Onslow Stevens) to beg for a cure to relieve them of their killing instincts. However, while the Wolf Man is sincere, Dracula is really just scheming to get close to the good doctor’s luscious nurse (Martha O’Driscoll) whom he intends to seduce into becoming one of his “brides of darkness.” The mayhem and madness reach a feverish pitch when the doctor discovers the body of Frankenstein’s Monster and begins to bring it back to life. All of this is more than the nearby villagers can stand as they become determined to stop the lunacy that threatens the safety of their families and their town.
