47. Van Helsing (2004)

Let's see...Dracula, his brides, Werewolves, the Monster of Frankenstein...anything I missed?

Elfflame's rating:

Ghosts, Vampires, Mummies, Werewolves, Zombies, and even Witches.

I'm being a bit selective here, because there are some "good" or "happy" ghost stories I'm not putting in here, and I'm not including "creature" monsters, either. And none of the movies on this list are ones I rated less than 3 stars.
