The count invites dancers from all over the world to attend the contest, and promises a prize of $100,000 to the winner. The contestants arrive in Transylvania and start preparing for the contest.

The story takes a turn when a group of vampire hunters arrive in the town. They are searching for a legendary vampire named Lord Byron, who is rumored to be residing in Transylvania. The vampire hunters mistakenly assume that Count Byron Orlock is Lord Byron and start tracking him down.

The performances of the cast are commendable, with Robert Vaughn as Count Byron Orlock stealing the show. His portrayal of a charming but menacing vampire is both entertaining and engaging. Teri Copley as Peggy is also noteworthy, bringing a sense of innocence and vulnerability to her character.

The movie's soundtrack is a mix of rock and roll and pop, with some memorable numbers like "Transylvania Twist" and "Vampire's Ball". The music adds to the fun and energetic vibe of the movie.
