Doctor Who: Dracula

Summary

A vampire is on the loose!

On what they hope is going to be a holiday, the Doctor and his companions arrive in a quiet, unassuming seaside town called Whitby.

The terrible significance of the place evades them, until they happen upon a theatre production that captivates their attention . . .

Dracula!

Suddenly, murders are occurring left, right and centre, each victim with trademark puncture wounds on their neck. Ian is soon missing, and a town shrouded in myth and legend is beginning to live up to its name.

Clearly there is a Dracula at large. But the TARDIS team quickly realise: you can never trust a vampire . . .
