Introduction

Most of us know the Dracula story of a Transylvanian count and his efforts to seduce innocents into becoming vampires and the forces of good that ultimately triumph over him. Well this is a little bit like that but with singing, dancing and a very corny script.

For those of you who need it here’s a quick recap with the Spectacula spin on things. The inexperienced Miss Nadia Naïve takes her pupils on a school vacation to Transylvania where they encounter adventures beyond their wildest imaginations. Dracula becomes very hot under the collar when he meets such innocence, and with help from his mother and manservant he tries to lure Nadia to an unknown fate deep within the bowels of his mysterious castle. But fear not, our hero Nicholas Necrophiliac with help from Father O’Stake, Hansel and Gretel and the locals, is here to save the day.
