Plot:
Courtempierre, France. Ghosts and demons haunt the restless mind of Allan Gray, an enthusiastic occult researcher obsessed with the inscrutable beyond. With the past's horrific superstitions invading the present, poisoning the disturbed reality of the young dark arts aficionado, Gray seeks shelter in the gloomy village's sole inn, unaware that ancient evil governs the land. But as the natural and supernatural realms become one, inviting disbelief and sheer emotional torment, terrifying secrets unfold. Now, fragrant human blood attracts the blackest of evil as a sinister, ever-present menace latches onto two defenceless sisters. Still, the worn-out manuscript in Allan's hand offers enlightenment. However, it's the life-giving fluid running through his veins that may save the fragile daughter of the manor's lord. As the grim conclusion of his strange adventure approaches, can Gray confront the Vampire, humankind's appalling arch-enemy?
