What The Satanic Rites of Dracula is
A midnight black Audi 100 cruising wet Surrey lanes. Professor Van Helsing, summoned by Whitehall codes, steps into a Georgian manor where bishops bleed on oak floors. The tycoon’s guests murmur hymns over mummified fingers. Another Hammer gothic that still believes evil can be strangled with a silver-tipped stake.
