"Centuries-old vampire Dracula preys upon the innocent Eva and her friends. In the early days of sound, it was common for Hollywood studios to produce Hollywood foreign-language versions of their films using the same sets, costumes and etc. The Spanish version of Dracula, in recent years, has become more highly praised by some than the English language version."
