Deep in the mountains of Carpathia lies the mysterious and mythic land of Transylvania—a world where evil is ever-present, where danger rises as the sun sets and where the monsters that inhabit man’s deepest nightmares take form. Be prepared to be taken into a visionary, supernatural but seemingly all-too-real world of Sommers’ singular creation—set in 19th Century London, Rome, Paris and Transylvania where mankind is in constant danger from incarnate evil in a multitude of forms. Here live monsters that outlive generations; defying constant attacks from the doomed valiant souls that challenge them in their never-ending war upon the human race.

Into this world, brought to life and played out on gigantic sets and extensive locations, Sommers takes Van Helsing, the legendary monster huntsman born in the pages of Bram Stoker’s Dracula. In his constant combat to rid the world of its wicked creatures, Van Helsing, on order of a secret society, travels to Transylvania to bring down the fatally seductive, inexplicably powerful Count Dracula and joins hands with the courageous Anna Valerious, out to rid her family of a generations-old curse by defeating the vampire. Do watch the spectacular presentation of fiction with out of the world special effects, which will make you, clinch your seats... on 25th of October brought to you by HBO as a Diwali gift.
