Vampirella

Synopsis:
Knock knock. . . a British bicyclist, a vampiress hungry for love, a carnivorous housekeeper and a castle full of ghosts. Who's there? an over protective (dead) Father and his cronies who fill eternity with their whispers. a lark who sings in the dark. a bicycle rusting in a stream. You are just in time for tea. . . VampirElla is waiting. She has a hunger. However, the only thing that will sate her appetite this time is love. Making love. Making love with a young male virgin. It is the only way out of her tedious existence: being a vampire is pretty lonely when you are last of the line.
