Dracula is dead and Dr. Von Helsing is arrested for the same. Despite what he claims about Dracula, the police find it hard to believe and he seeks the help of Dr. Jeffrey Garth, his former student. Meanwhile, Dracula's body is burnt after being stolen and this act is carried out by Countess Zaleska, daughter of Dracula. She believes this would cure her of the curse and be able to live a normal life. When this doesn't work, she seeks out Dr. Jeffrey Garth to help her. Will she be able to end the curse, forms rest of the story.
Dracula's Daughter is a pretty straight forward story and for the 1930s it may have found some audience but 88 years later, the heavily toned down version which is all too conservative, doesn't really help it's cause. The Countess is supposed to be a lesbian, a reason why she wants to end the curse to live her life with the one she loves but none of it is explored in a way to back this particular character. The Censor board was too strict and that impacted the narrative. In the end, it was a dull vampire film.
