Plot summary
Dexter Ward attends his uncle's funeral at a mortuary and watches the uncle, a librarian named Ephram, climb out of the coffin very much alive. Ephram once let the Book of Ulthar go out on loan, and a spell in it could loose terrible evil, so Dexter sets off to get it back. His search brings him to Marissa Orlock, an aspiring singing star who has inherited Castle Orlock in Transylvania; Victor Van Helsing, the estate's executor, travels with them. Count Byron Orlock and his three adopted daughters, all vampires, are already in the castle, and Byron means to have the book.
