The movie Van Helsing, lasting two hours and twelve minutes, starts off in Transylvania in the year 1887. Dr. Frankenstein has succeeded in creating his monster, much to the delight of Count Dracula. Count Dracula provided Dr. Frankenstein with a laboratory so that he could do his experiments. But what Dr. Frankenstein wasn't aware of was that Count Dracula was a blood thirsty vampire who only wanted the monster for his own evil deeds. Once Dr. Frankenstein finds out, he is horrified by what purpose his creation will be used for. Count Dracula quickly disposes of him, much to the dismay of the monster, who had grown attached to his creator. An angry mob storms the laboratory, and the Monster leaves carrying his dead master. They travel to a windmill where the villagers burn them both.
