Watch Dracula (1958) in Newcastle Castle

This Halloween, you're invited to enjoy Dracula (1958) in the Great Hall!

Based on Bram Stoker's 1897 world-famous novel, Dracula, and directed by Terence Fisher, the 1958 British gothic horror film stars Christopher Lee as Count Dracula alongside Peter Cushing as Doctor Van Helsing.

With support from Michael Gough, Melissa Stribling, Carol Marsh and John Van Eyssen, the expert-on-vampirism Jonathan Harker rouses the ire of Count Dracula for accepting a job at the vampire's castle - under false pretenses. Only his friend Doctor Van Helsing can help him now, by relentlessly pursuing the predatory villain.
