## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

A fog-choked Alpine valley, 1967. A pocket watch ticks backward inside a sealed glass coffin.

The reanimated Count Regula drains youth through rusted tools while his grown prey rehearses a modern exorcism.

A peacock feather skims the tomb’s marble floor before the séance begins.

**Mood tags**: dread, surreal
