He is going on business to sign the documents of the house that the Count has bought in England.When he came to Transylvania and the people knew his intention, they made the sign against the evil eye. He saw a girl at the hotel who seemed nice. She gave her a golden cross. He headed towards the castle and just at that time he received a letter from the Count who gave him instructions on how to get to the castle. It said that he had to take the coach to Bukovina and had to wait on the road to the Bongo Pass. A carriage will be waiting for him. When he reached his carriage, the clothes of the driver, the carriage horses were all black.
Besides, there were wolves that followed he carriage.

CAPÍTOL 1
Jonahtan Harker era un jove advocat anglès que va viatjar en carruatge fins a Transylvania per negocis amb el Comte Dràcula, havia de tractar un assumpte de compra-venda d’una casa, la del seu empleat.
Quan va arribar a Transylvania i la gent del poble va saver la seva intenció, es van espantar. Deien que havia d’anar amb compte amb el mal d’ull.
Mes tard, a l’hotel va veure una noia que semblava agradable i ella al veure la preocupació d’en Jonathan li va donar una creu d’or que el protegiria. Ell no entenia res, així que es va dirigir cap al castell i just en aquest moment va rebre una carta d’en Dràcula on li donava instruccions de com arribar al castell. Deia que l’esperaria un carruatge a la meitat del camí. Quan va arribar el seu carruatge tot li semblava molt misteriós i més quan va veure que tot era negre, els cavalls, el carruatge, la vestimenta del conductor…
A més, hi havia llops que seguien el carruatge. Finalment van arribar al castell i el vehicle va desaparèixer deixant-lo a la porta.
They all gathered to fight Dracula and think about how to kill him. The are going to use garlic and the cross. Finally the found Dracula’s place, in Carfax. They will kill him while he sleeps.
In Carfax, they found all those boxes, full of earth and with the smell of blood and death. At once, rats appeared in the house and dogs began to bark. Soon the dogs arrived and chased away the rats.
In the morning, Mina was very tired, while Jonathan continued looking for Count Dracula’s missing boxes. But suddenly one of Doctor Seward’s patient died. When the Professor and the men heard these words, they all returned to the house and went to Mina and Jonathan’s room. Jonathan was drugged and Mina was on the other bed. Dracula stood next to them. His mouth was dripping with Mina’s blood.
Mina is very worried about being unclean but Van Helsing tries to comfort her. She is safe with them. They had to destroy Count Dracula definitely.
CAPÍTOL 7
Tots es troben per tal de planejar com matar en Dràcula. Utilitzaran alls i la creu. Finalment, troben la caixa
d’en Dràcula, a Carfax. El mataran mentres dorm.
A Carfax, troben les caixes, plens de terra i amb olor a sang i mort. De sobte, unes rates apareixen dins de casa i els gossos comencen a bordar. Aviat arriben els gossos i comencen a perseguir les rates.
Al matí, la Mina es trobava cansada, mentres en Jonathan continua buscant les caixes que falten. Però de sobte un dels pacients del Doctor Seward mort. Quan el Professor sent aquestes paraules, tots retornen a casa de la Mina i en Jonathan. Ell ha estat drogat i la Mina estava a l’altre llit. En Dràcula estava plantat al costat dels dos. De la seva boca vessava sang de la Mina.
La Mina està preocupada. Potser ha estat “contaminada”, però el Professor la tranquil.litza. Ella està segura amb ells. Definitivament han d’acabar amb en Dràcula.
Professor Van Helsing discovers that Dracula uses the boxes as hiding-places, so they have to make the earth holy and he won’t be able to use them. The men started at the house in Carfax, then they set out for the three houses in London. They put some Host in the earth and sealed the boxes again.
When they finished their work, they were sure that Count Dracula was on his way. He arrived and they started to fight. Jonathan cut the Count’s coat with his knife and a lot of money fell out onto the floor. Finally the Count disappeared.
They all returned to Dr Seward’s house and told Mina about everything. She had definitely drank the blood of a vampire, so they had to kill Dracula to save her life.
Mina felt that Dracula was trying to control her, so she asked the Professor to hypnotise her. It is at that moment when she can “see” where the Count is: he is on a ship, with the missing box of earth.
Professor Van Helsing discovered that a ship named the Czarina Catherine sailed the previous day for Varna, a port on the way to Transylvania. The men had to follow him. They had to reach Varna before him, they had no choice. If the Count reaches Castle Dracula, they will lose Mina forever.
Professor Van Helsing, Dr Seward, Jonathan and Mina crossed from England to Europe and caught the Orient Express in Paris. Three days later, they were in Varna, preparing to confront the vampire.
A week passed. Then they discovered that Dracula used Mina to trick them. He was closer to Castle Dracula than they were. The box and the Count were gone.
Mina told the men that the Count was still travelling by water. They went into the mountains using different transports: riding a horse, by boat and by train. The weather became colder. Van Helsing was travelling with Mina, she was getting ill. One night the horses began to panic. Mina and the Professor sat inside a circle of Host to protect themselves. The three vampire ladies appeared and called Mina to join them. The next morning he could not wake Mina, so he continued to Castle Dracula on foot and left Mina inside the circle covered with fur robes.
When the Professor found the tombs of the three ladies in the old chapel of the castle, he realised that he was falling under a spell. So he quickly put the stake through the ladies’ hearts and cut off their heads. At once he began to search for the tomb of the Count, which he finally found. He put some Host so the Count could not use it again.
Suddenly, they saw a band of men with a cart and another group of men on horses chasing them. Dracula was escaping! The sun was going down as they opened the top of the box. Dracula lay there. Jonathan stabbed his knife into the Count’s throat and another man sank his knife into the Count’s heart. The Count had died at last and Mina was safe.
CHAPTER 5
In chapter 5, Lucy, Mina’s friend, is bitten by Dracula. After this incident, people start to worry and it was just a matter of time that Lucy was transformed into a vampire. Once this happened, her friends had to kill the her before she could commit more crimes. In order to finish with her life, they drove a stake through her heart and cut off her head.
CAPÍTULO 5
Durante el capitulo 5, Lucy, una de las chicas que acompañan a los principales protagonistas, es mordida por Dracula.Tras este incidente, la gente comienza a preocuparse y, solo fue cuestión de tiempo que ocurriese: Lucy se transformó en vampiro. Una vez esto sucedió: sus amigos no tuvieron otro remedio que matarla antes de que cometiera más crímenes. Para hacerlo le clavaron una estaca en el corazón y le cortaron la cabeza.
