Quotes 

  • Van Helsing : The strength of the vampire is that people will not believe in him.

  • Doctor Seward : But, Professor Van Helsing, modern medical science does not admit of such a creature! The vampire is a pure myth, superstition.

    Van Helsing : I may be able to bring you proof that the superstition of yesterday can become the scientific reality of today.

  • Van Helsing : [Holding a box]  A moment ago, I stumbled upon a most amazing phenomena. Something so incredible, I mistrust my own judgement. Look.

    [Van Helsing opens the box to reveal a mirror. Dracula smacks it out of his hand] 

    Count Dracula : Doctor Seward. My humble apology. I dislike mirrors.

  • Van Helsing : You'll die in torment if you die with innocent blood on your soul.

    Renfield : God will not damn a poor lunatic's soul. He knows that the powers of evil are too great for those with weak minds.

  • Renfield : He came and stood below my window in the moonlight. And he promised me things, not in words, but by doing them.

    Van Helsing : Doing them?

    Renfield : By making them happen. A red mist spread over the lawn, coming on like a flame of fire! And then he parted it, and I could see that there were thousands of rats, with their eyes blazing red, like his, only smaller. Then he held up his hand, and they all stopped, and I thought he seemed to be saying: "Rats! Rats! Rats! Thousands! Millions of them! All red blood! All these will I give you! If you will obey me!"

    Van Helsing : What did he want you to do?

    Renfield : That which has already been done!

    [giggles sinisterly] 

  • Van Helsing : Mr. Harker, I have devoted my lifetime to the study of many strange things. Little-known facts which the world is, perhaps, better off for not knowing.

    John Harker : I know. But Professor, all I want is to get Mina away from all of this.

    Van Helsing : That will do no good. Our only chance of saving Miss Mina's life is to find the hiding place of Dracula's living corpse and to drive a stake through its heart.

    Renfield : Isn't this a strange conversation for men who aren't crazy?

  • Count Dracula : Van Helsing.

    [Van Helsing turns to face Count Dracula] 

    Count Dracula : Now that you have learned what you have learned, it would be well for you to return to your own country.

    Van Helsing : I prefer to remain and protect those whom you would destroy.

    Count Dracula : You are too late. My blood now flows through her veins. She will live through the centuries to come, as I have lived.

    Van Helsing : Should you escape us, Dracula. We know how to save Miss Mina's soul if not her life.

    Count Dracula : If she dies by day. But I shall see that she dies by night.

    Van Helsing : And I will have Carfax Abbey torn down, stone by stone, excavated a mile around. I will find your earth-box and drive that stake through your heart.

    Count Dracula : Come here.

    [Dracula raises his hand to hypnotise Van Helsing] 

    Count Dracula : Come here.

    [Van Helsing takes three hypnotised steps towards Dracula but soon steps back, resisting Dracula's hypnotic power over him] 

    Count Dracula : Your will is strong, Van Helsing.

    [Van Helsing reaches out for his crucifix as Dracula looms toward him] 

    Count Dracula : More wolfbane?

    Van Helsing : More effective than wolfbane, Count.

    Count Dracula : Indeed.

    [Dracula lunges towards Van Helsing. Van Helsing holds up the crucifix. Dracula snarls and turns away. Van Helsing, in triumph, puts away the crucifix] 

  • Van Helsing : [examining Mina's neck]  How long have you had those little marks?

    John Harker : Marks? Mina, why didn't you let us know?

    Van Helsing : Please! Do not excite her. When, Miss Mina?

    Mina Seward : Since the morning after the dream.

    John Harker : What could have caused them, Professor?

    Maid : [entering room to announce Dracula's arrival]  Count Dracula!

  • Van Helsing : Gentlemen, we are dealing with the undead.

    Scholar : Nosferatu

    Van Helsing : Yes, Nosferatu.

  • Van Helsing : What have you to do with Dracula?

    Renfield : DRACULA?... I never even heard the name before
