About Dráscula
Drascula: The Vampire Strikes Back is a 1996 comedy adventure by the Spanish studio Alcachofa Soft, published by Digital Dreams Multimedia. Jonathan Harker has to rescue his fiancée from a vampire with a very silly castle. It is a point-and-click adventure with the original voices and soundtrack.
Alcachofa Soft released the game as freeware with its readme. This page runs that original release with the open-source ScummVM engine, unmodified. A separate paid re-release exists elsewhere; this is the freeware original.
