The Last Voyage of the Demeter

The Legend of Dracula is Born.

The merchant ship Demeter is chartered to carry private cargo (fifty unmarked wooden crates) from Carpathia to London. Strange events befall the doomed crew as they attempt to survive the ocean voyage, stalked each night by a merciless presence onboard the ship. When the Demeter finally arrives off the shores of England, it is a charred, derelict wreck. There is no trace of the crew.
