1872

The first act from Dracula A.D. 1972 takes place in this year. It chronicles the demise of Dracula from the previous film. In the scene, Dracula and nemesis Van Helsing battle one another on top of a stagecoach. The vehicle overturns and Dracula is impaled by a broken spoke from one of the wheels. Van Helsing presses down harder on the makeshift wooden stake to finish him off.
