Dracula: suffering undeath

Synopsis: 

Life comes and goes. Dracula stays. Every night he has to leave his coffin in search of – what, actually? His dream of eternal life has turned into a nightmare, his hunger for blood and love brings only death. And while the human souls around him find final peace in the arms of Death, Dracula’s suffering starts again every night. Tired and lonesome he decides to die, too. But Death seems just to ridicule him, floating lightly and sorrowless above all. Will there be an issue?
