Billy the Kid Versus Dracula

A stagecoach arrives in Papago Wells for a night stopover. The four passengers are Count Dracula (John Carradine); Mrs. Mary Ann Bentley (Marjorie Bennett) and her brother James Underhill (William Forrest), wealthy Easterners; and a drunken whiskey salesman, Joe Flake (George Cisar). Dracula has his eyes on Nana (Charlita), an Indian girl who works for the stagecoach company. That night, a bat lures Nana from the Indians' camp. The stagecoach departs the next morning without Dracula, and the Indians find Nana's corpse. Convinced that the white people murdered Nana, the Indians attack the stagecoach and kill the three passengers. Dracula arrives later and steals Underhill's papers, plus a picture of Mrs. Bentley's daughter, Betty (Melinda Casey). Billy the Kid (Chuck Courtney), a reformed outlaw working as the foreman on the Bentley ranch and engaged to be married to Betty, goes to Wickenburg to await the stagecoach's arrival. He meets Dracula posing as Betty's uncle, whom she has never seen, at the hotel, where they learn of the slaughter of the passengers by the Indians, but some of the guests at the hotel insist that it was the work of a vampire. Later at the ranch, Billy is challenged to a gunfight by one of the hired hands, kills him in self-defense and is forced to leave town. Betty comes under the hypnotic power of her phony "uncle" and agrees to marry him. However, Eva Oster (Virginia Christine), a ranch worker from some country in Europe, sees the two small holes on Betty's neck, recognizes them instantly as vampire-inflicted, and tells Billy. Now Billy must rescue Betty from Dracula while avoiding arrest by the Sheriff and his posse.
