They plan on selling him the one across the way from Hutter's own home. Hutter leaves his innocent wife, Ellen, with some friends while he is away. Hutter's trek is an unusual one, with many locals not wanting to take him near the castle where strange events have been occurring. Once at the castle, Hutter does manage to sell the Count the house, but he also notices and feels unusual occurrences, primarily feeling like there is a dark shadow hanging over him, even in the daytime when the Count is unusually asleep.

"Look! Every night, in front of me..."

Panic seized the people. Who was sick or dying?

Who would be stricken tomorrow?

"I shall run over there quickly. I shall get Sievers..."

Wherefore there is no salvation therefrom except that a woman pure

in heart were to make the vampire forget the cock's first crowing.

Of her own free will would she have to give him her blood.

The panic-stricken town was looking for a scape-goat. It chose Knock.

"They saw him escape - he strangled his keeper!"

"He strangled him! The vampire!"

"Bulwer! Fetch Bulwer!"

"Master! Master! Beware!"

"The master...is...dead."

"Thomas!"

And the miracle shall be told in truth.

At that very hour the Great Death ceased and

the shadow of the empire vanished as if

overcome by the victorious rays of the living sun.
