DRĂCULA - Penthouse Halloween Party (Episode I)

DRACULEA — A 4K AI-Native Modern Gothic Vampire Short Film

A Silicon Valley–style AI pipeline meets modern-day Dracula mythology, cyberpunk horror, supernatural politics, and Burning Man energy in this original, character-driven cinematic universe.

🦇 THE DRACULEA UNIVERSE — Modern Vampire Mythology Reimagined
Set inside a towering Manhattan penthouse, Drăculea resurrects as the immortal patriarch of a supernatural household with three powerful vampire wives: Valeria, Freya, and Cassia.
This penthouse functions as a throne room, rave hall, political chamber, and war arena as monster factions arrive through a golden elevator for All Hallows Eve.

Rival factions include the Werewolf Pack (Burning Man boy-band energy), the Witch Coven (three seductive spellcasters), Frankenstein and his cyberpunk Bride, and the Butcher of Budapest — Dracula’s ancient cybernetic rival — along with Skit and Scat, two gremlins who quickly regret crossing him.

The climax features Drăculea’s signature “phase-shift” power: freezing time, extinguishing all light except moonlight, revealing fangs, and executing supernatural justice in a modern gothic showdown.

This episode serves as the pilot of a long-running supernatural franchise blending dark humor, high fashion, monster politics, and AI-driven spectacle.

This film was created from zero script to 4K render by Jeff Jones in 10 days with zero budget for the Curious Refuge annual Ai Horror Film Festival

👴 TRIBUTE
This film is dedicated to my grandparents Dale Dean Jones and Leah Jones — Leah for her love of movies, and Dale for being a master storyteller. Their legacy directly inspired this modern vampire universe.
