VAMPYR

0:02:30.630,0:02:35.170
This is the tale of the strange adventures of young[br]Allan Gray, who immersed himself in the study

0:02:35.270,0:02:39.670
of devil worship and vampires. Preoccupied with[br]superstitions of centuries past, he became a dreamer

0:02:39.770,0:02:49.780
for whom the line between the real and the supernatural[br]became blurred.

0:02:50.010,0:03:08.130
His aimless wanderings led him late one evening to a[br]secluded inn by the river in a village called Courtempierre.

0:03:45.000,0:03:46.170
Who's there?

0:03:48.740,0:03:50.170
Go around.

0:05:06.010,0:05:07.010
Good night.

0:06:51.680,0:06:56.960
It was an eerie moonlit night. Light and shadow,[br]voices and faces seemed to take on hidden meaning.

0:06:57.000,0:07:00.760
Allan Gray felt a sinister force[br]descend upon him. In vain he fought

0:07:00.860,0:07:10.030
the terror that seized him, and fear of things[br]he could not name haunted his restless sleep.

0:08:14.690,0:08:15.430
Who are you?

0:08:44.779,0:08:45.450
Quiet!

0:09:05.620,0:09:08.250
She mustn't die![br]You understand?

0:09:52.710,0:09:54.040
TO BE OPENED...[br]UPON MY DEATH

0:10:46.670,0:10:50.200
What was going on? [br]What terrifying secret was unfolding?

0:10:50.200,0:11:01.190
Allan Gray felt certain of one thing: A soul in mortal distress was[br]crying out for help, and a voice within urged him to heed that call.

0:13:35.070,0:13:35.780
Justin, come here!

0:13:50.960,0:13:51.960
Silence!

0:15:30.260,0:15:31.060
Did you hear that?

0:17:49.460,0:17:51.460
Yes. The child.

0:17:52.050,0:17:53.050
The child?

0:17:57.950,0:18:01.290
Yes, the child!

0:18:08.020,0:18:09.390
There's no child here.

0:18:28.190,0:18:28.990
But the dogs!

0:18:33.910,0:18:36.880
There are no children[br]or dogs here!

0:18:37.460,0:18:43.870
- No?[br]- No. Good night.

0:18:47.110,0:18:48.110
Good night.

0:20:39.220,0:20:47.370
He followed the fleeting shadows and came to a large estate[br]where a forlorn manor rose up among ancient trees.

0:20:47.370,0:20:57.540
Here, in seclusion, with only his two daughters and a few servants for[br]company, lived the man who had appeared to Allan Gray earlier at the inn.

0:21:50.740,0:21:54.080
The wounds have almost healed.

0:22:08.230,0:22:11.110
The blood![br]The blood!

0:22:22.360,0:22:25.690
Don't go to bed[br]until the doctor arrives.

0:23:17.040,0:23:18.880
Open up! Hurry!

0:23:28.190,0:23:30.590
For heavers sake, hurry!

0:23:33.990,0:23:35.020
What's wrong?

0:23:40.800,0:23:41.910
What is it?

0:26:02.220,0:26:05.560
Quick![br]They're trying to kill him!

0:26:06.740,0:26:10.080
The other door.

0:27:47.590,0:27:50.560
Jeanne, light the lamps[br]in the library.

0:29:03.710,0:29:05.310
And you stay with Gisčle,[br]you hear?

0:29:06.010,0:29:07.010
Is he dead?

0:29:32.910,0:29:35.040
Yes.

0:29:53.030,0:29:59.200
Wort you please[br]stay here with us?

0:30:07.700,0:30:16.900
Where is he going?

0:30:16.900,0:30:29.110
To the police.

0:30:29.110,0:30:35.320
TO BE OPENED[br]UPON MY DEATH

0:30:35.320,0:30:43.990
THE STRANGE HISTORY[br]OF VAMPIRES

0:31:40.080,0:31:48.780
Accounts from many ages and lands[br]tell of terrible demons called vampires.

0:31:48.780,0:31:57.130
These are the bodies[br]and souls of the dead

0:31:57.130,0:32:03.330
whose terrible deeds in life[br]deny them repose in the grave.

0:32:08.570,0:32:13.930
Under the bright light[br]of the full moon,

0:32:14.650,0:32:17.180
they rise from their graves

0:32:30.640,0:32:31.640
to suck the blood of children[br]and young adults

0:35:29.520,0:35:33.320
and thus prolong[br]their shadowy existence.

0:35:33.420,0:35:37.720
The Prince of Darkness[br]is their ally

0:35:37.820,0:35:44.990
and lends them supernatural power[br]among the living and the dead.

0:35:45.660,0:35:51.680
At night these creatures[br]from the abyss

0:36:45.460,0:36:48.790
haunt the abodes of the living,

0:36:49.960,0:36:51.300
where they sow[br]death and decay.

0:36:52.690,0:36:55.390
A vampire's victim is doomed[br]to perish without hope.

0:38:43.300,0:38:45.830
A wound on the throat,[br]as from the bite of a cat or rat,

0:39:01.680,0:39:02.520
is the mark of damnation.

0:39:33.430,0:39:35.510
Neither medical science...

0:40:10.680,0:40:14.120
Léone!

0:41:09.020,0:41:12.320
Where?

0:41:12.420,0:41:22.320
There, outside!

0:41:22.320,0:41:38.660
Hurry!

0:41:59.420,0:42:02.420
Léone!

0:42:03.160,0:42:09.040
Quick!

0:42:09.040,0:42:12.370
Like a plague,[br]the vampire's lust infects the victim,

0:42:12.370,0:42:13.700
who is torn[br]between a thirst for blood

0:42:16.540,0:42:19.870
and a desperate repulsion[br]toward this craving.

0:42:41.230,0:42:46.680
The innocent young person[br]itself becomes a vampire

0:42:53.600,0:42:55.940
and seeks to prey[br]on its nearest and dearest.

0:43:17.760,0:43:18.290
Entire families, even entire villages,[br]are thus brought under the curse.

0:43:18.930,0:43:24.770
If I could only die!

0:44:24.610,0:44:25.680
No, Léone.

0:44:30.970,0:44:31.640
I know.

0:44:34.830,0:44:38.170
I'm lost.

0:44:54.970,0:44:56.310
I'm damned.

0:44:59.810,0:45:02.130
I think she's dying.

0:45:20.440,0:45:21.640
Didrt you hear a scream?

0:45:24.150,0:45:27.490
Come![br]The carriage is back!

0:45:41.960,0:45:45.300
She's asleep.

0:46:17.240,0:46:30.850
Good God!

0:46:30.850,0:46:46.300
What is that?

0:47:00.770,0:47:05.070
See that?

0:47:13.430,0:47:16.760
Blood.

0:47:20.200,0:47:22.170
The ghosts of executed criminals[br]are in their service,

0:47:43.640,0:47:49.230
but the living too may fall[br]under their dreadful sway.

0:48:18.360,0:48:19.030
An account from Hungary[br]tells of a village doctor

0:48:23.940,0:48:25.780
who, having sold his soul[br]to the Evil One,

0:48:26.480,0:48:29.210
became a vampire's henchman

0:48:35.840,0:48:39.880
and thus an accessory to a series[br]of horrid crimes in that region.

0:48:39.890,0:48:45.050
Good evening, Doctor.

0:48:45.150,0:48:59.930
Good evening.[br]How is she doing?

0:49:00.090,0:49:05.740
- Not well at all.[br]- Oh? Why is that?

0:49:05.840,0:49:10.840
We found her[br]out on the grounds.

0:49:10.940,0:49:21.780
Well, let's go see.

0:49:36.780,0:49:37.780
She has another[br]of those marks on her neck.

0:49:38.790,0:49:46.500
We'll have a look.

0:49:46.540,0:49:49.350
Good evening.

0:49:55.900,0:50:01.380
Good evening.[br]Come along.

0:50:01.380,0:50:05.800
You stay down here.

0:50:05.800,0:50:11.080
She's doing very poorly.

0:50:11.080,0:50:15.170
- Pulse?[br]- Weak.

0:50:15.170,0:50:27.080
Can't she be saved?

0:50:27.080,0:50:39.020
Perhaps.

0:52:05.210,0:52:09.260
But she needs blood.

0:52:11.710,0:52:12.680
It must be human blood.

0:53:54.790,0:53:57.120
Are you willing[br]to give her your own?

0:54:00.260,0:54:01.370
Come, young man.

0:54:02.090,0:54:05.430
I'll draw your blood.

0:54:40.450,0:54:43.020
Why does the doctor[br]always come at night?

0:54:43.020,0:54:47.550
Once the vampire has gained[br]complete control over its victim,

0:56:12.940,0:56:15.640
it seeks to drive[br]the victim to suicide,

1:00:52.900,1:00:56.900
thus delivering that soul[br]to the Evil One.

1:05:37.590,1:05:41.750
For he who takes his own life[br]is lost for all eternity.

1:06:30.160,1:06:33.490
To him the Golden Gates[br]of Heaven are closed.

1:10:06.810,1:10:08.610
For him all hope is lost.

1:10:10.660,1:10:13.990
Sister.

1:11:20.040,1:11:23.370
Come here a moment.

1:11:37.740,1:11:39.410
You may go to bed now.

1:11:53.390,1:11:54.090
Did you hear me?

1:12:07.300,1:12:08.440
Who can solve the riddle[br]of life and death

1:13:40.590,1:13:43.930
or fathom the dark secrets[br]hidden from the light of day?

1:13:43.930,1:13:43.990
For just as strange[br]as a vampire's existence

1:13:43.990,1:13:44.060
is the manner of its demise.

1:13:44.060,1:13:44.130
These dead who cannot find peace[br]must be murdered

1:13:44.130,1:13:44.190
to deliver a tormented humanity[br]from their grip.

1:13:44.190,1:13:45.530
Many monasteries and libraries[br]possess in their secret archives...

1:13:45.530,1:13:49.000
Doctor!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
What's wrong?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I'm losing blood.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Nonsense![br]Your blood is right here!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
...accounts of how vampires have been[br]rendered harmless in many places.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
In the village of Kisilova,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
haunted a generation ago[br]by a vampire in the form of an old woman,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the following procedure[br]was used:

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
At dawn the grave was opened,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and the old woman[br]was found lying as if asleep.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
An iron stake was driven[br]through her heart,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
nailing her horrid soul[br]to the earth.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
She then died a true death,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and the curse that had lain[br]upon herself and her victims was broken.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Come... follow me.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
We shall become[br]one soul, one blood.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Follow me.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Death is waiting...

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
...deliverance by the grace[br]of our heavenly Lord.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Even in these parts,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
tradition tells how certain areas[br]were haunted by vampires.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Just 25 years ago,[br]a murderous epidemic

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
claimed 11 victims[br]in the village of Courtempierre.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Doctors assigned the plague[br]a medical name,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but a persistent rumor[br]circulated among the people

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that a vampire was[br]the cause of the scourge.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Many firmly believed[br]that vampire to be

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
none other than Marguerite Chopin,[br]who lay buried in the village cemetery.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
All her life, Marguerite Chopin[br]had been a monster in human form.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
She died[br]an unrepentant soul,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and the Church denied her[br]the Last Sacraments.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Come quickly!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Something terrible is happening!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Come quickly!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Sister.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I'm afraid of dying.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I am damned!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
My God!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Sister.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
She mustrt die.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
She must live until sunrise,[br]you understand?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
FROM DUST THOU ART

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
UNTO DUST THOU SHALT RETURN

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Now go!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Quickly!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I feel strong.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
My soul is free.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Ah, you're here.[br]Open this.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You hear me?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Listen to me!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Listen to me!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Please!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Curse you, you bastard!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Open up!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Let me out of here!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Open this gate!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Over here.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
This way.
