Velkan and Anna are the last of their family and have been trying to rid their land of Dracula for the past year, upon which their father has also disappeared. One day, Velkan is trying to capture the Wolf Man but is either bitten or scratched as it isn't shown. However, he is able to kill the Wolf Man. Anna begans to believe her brother is dead but one night he returns to their house. He tries to reveal Dracula's secret to Anna but changes into a werewolf before he can finish talking. Van Helsing begins to hunt the werewolf but Anna stops Van Helsing from shooting her brother. Upon returning to Dracula's castle, Velkan learns that his father has been killed because Dracula tried to use him to bring his children to life. After learning of this, Dracula then decides to use him to bring his children to life. Velkan proves to be insufficient but is sent to kill Anna and Van Helsing.
