Synopsis

Dolly and Clara arrive at Castle Drackenberg, unaware that danger lurks round every corner, for the castle's owner, Count Drackenberg, is a vampire! In Garlic and Lavender, Nick Warburton combines every traditional element of the vampire horror genre - including a sinister henchman, surly villagers and a doughty vampire expert - with a strong measure of daft comedy, to hilarious effect!
