This horror comedy sets off in the year 1876 as a young girl is bitten by Count Dracula at her boarding school. When her coffin is uncovered and delivered to an antiques dealer 100 years later, she is reborn as a vampire and tries to find her way in the modern world. At first, her job as a mortuary cosmetologist keeps her well-paid and well-fed, but as she runs out of blood bags, she must take greater risks to sate her appetite.
