t is 1875¸ and Count Dracula is President of the United States of America.
In the wake of the Civil War¸ with the country struggling to regain its balance¸ Dracula seized power. The Count's thralls assassinated President Lincoln and his entire administration in a single night and¸ in the ensuing chaos¸ their master made his move. Dominating the Senate¸ he declared himself President-for-Life¸ and now rules the Union with fear and an iron fist. His vampiric progeny¸ the Coven of the Red Hand¸ infest every strata of society¸ and enforce Dracula's will with ruthless efficiency.
Drawn by the shadows gathering across the nation¸ secretive cults and evil creatures emerge from their lairs to thrive in the darkness of the new regime. Fleeing from the oppression and menace of the East¸ hordes of pioneers head to the West¸ hoping for a new life.
Dracula's greed¸ however¸ knows no bounds¸ and his reach is long…
