Fallen from grace and driven from the British Empire in previous instalments, Dracula seems long gone. A relic of the past. Yet, when vampire boy Johnny Alucard descends upon America, stalking the streets of New York and Hollywood, haunting the lives of the rich and famous, from Sid and Nancy to Andy Warhol, Orson Welles, and Francis Ford Coppola, sinking his fangs ever deeper into the zeitgeist of 1980s America, it seems the past might not be dead after all.

Anno Dracula: Johnny Alucard explores a chilling story set in a familiar yet fundamentally altered world, where vampires mingle with the elite and shape the course of history in shadowy corners and public spectacles alike.
