Dracula (1931)

The historic Newtown Theatre and Doylestown’s VAMPA Vampire & Paranormal Museum are teaming up to present 1931’s “Dracula” starring Bela Lugosi.

Prior to the movie, various items from the museum will be on display in the theatre, including 19 th century vampire-killing tools and more. At VAMPA, visitors can view a wide array of art, antiques and artifacts that date back to the 1700s and beyond.

Bela Lugosi stars as Count Dracula in the 1931 original screen version of Bram Stoker's classic tale. The dashing, mysterious Dracula, after hypnotizing a British soldier into his mindless slave, travels to London and takes up residence in an old castle. Soon he begins to wreak havoc, sucking the blood of young women and turning them into vampires.

When he sets his sights on Mina, the daughter of a prominent doctor, a vampire-hunter is enlisted to put a stop to the Count’s never-ending bloodlust.
