Misguided trip

They call it 'dark tourism'. This one was for like-minded singles with a fascination for things Draculaesque. A guided trip to Transylvania.

Jack thought it might be a good way of meeting a woman of interest. And he did.

There was something different about Sylvie, the cutest girl on the trip. Jack made a beeline for her the moment everyone met at Gatwick.

In Transylvania, he invited her to dinner at Dracs, a remote gothic-style restaurant.

He was completely smitten, but later she would break his heart. Jack jokingly chose the blood sausage, but Sylvie had the stake.

Great movie, but I'm waiting for sequel, Dracula Meets Dr. Punenstein's Monster!

(This drabble reminded me of a funny novelty hit from the late 50's called "Dinner With Drac Pt. 1" by John Zacherle, who hosted a horror movie show here at that time. Kind of like a male Elvira but 20 years before her. You should check the song out on YouTube. It's corny but amusing.)
