In this first-person narrative Vlad Dracula recounts how he became one of the most powerful of vampires. As a young man he meets and falls in love with the beautiful witch Tzigane. She tells him of a prophecy in which he will play a central role. He has been chosen to be Satan's king on Earth. Together they will rule. This certainly appeals to Dracula, but he neglects to look for the dark hidden clauses which accompany any pact with the Devil. This is an erotic interpretation of the Dracula legend. |
