The film takes place ten years after the end of ''Horror''. Even though Dracula has been destroyed, the land is still in fear of his presence, especially since his castle continues to loom on the horizon. Meanwhile, four English tourists -- Charles Kent (Francis Matthews), his wife Diana (Suzan Farmer), his brother Alan (Charles Tingwell), and Alan's wife Helen (Barbara Shelley) -- are navigating the country. Despite being warned by local priest Father Shandor (Andrew Keir) to steer clear of the castle, the Kents naturally don't listen and end up near the castle after their frightened coach driver abandons them.

At the castle, the group is met by a caretaker named Klove (Philip Latham) who takes them in for the night, explaining that his late master had stipulated that the castle should always be ready to receive visitors. During the night, however, Alan is killed by Klove while investigating a noise. Klove then trusses up his body, hangs it over Dracula's crypt, and slits the throat so the blood drips onto the Count's ashes. Dracula revives and proceeds to resume his reign of terror, first by turning Helen into a vampire then going after Diana. It soon falls on Charles and Father Shandor to stop him.

* NotHerself: Diana instantly know something wrong with Helen when she act oddly calm and avoids her questions on where Alan and Charles are before flashing her fangs (Though her being in a skimpy nightgown was likewise an obvious clue considering how conservative Helen dressed).
