PLOT SUMMARY:
Carmilla, the Homecoming is a modern day coming of age story of a teen-aged female vampire and her chilling tale of
revenge. Carmilla's return to her homeland not only unravels the dark mysteries of the family's legacy, it triggers a
series of events that will lead to a confrontation of power. Carmilla, the Homecoming is a contemporary adaptation of
the 19th century gothic novella “Carmilla”, by Irish writer Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, which is the prototype of an
entire subgenre of vampire fiction and a clear inspiration for Bram Stoker’s 1897 novel, Dracula.
When the beautiful, cheeky young vampir-ess, Carmilla, returns after hundreds of years in exile to seek cold revenge
on the man who stole her family legacy, she finds herself opening her heart when she least expects it. On the eve of
the first blue moon on All Soul’s Day since 1698, Carmilla Karnstein returns to her native land to take back her family
legacy and title from Lukas Kaiser, a cruel and evil vampire who seized power from her family.
Upon her return, Carmilla meets her brother, Alex, who has been Lukas’ puppet throughout the centuries and kept
hostage inside the Karnstein mansion. Together they must plot revenge on Lukas, who will use the power of the blue
moon to bring darkness into the world if they don’t stop him. Unexpectedly, however, Carmilla also meets Kurt, a
handsome young artist with whom she falls madly in love. At the same time, Detective Decker Vordenberg, is
summoned by his brother, the local priest, Father Stephan, to investigate a series of gruesome murders in the same
home town. Although he has no interest in returning home, Decker is lured by the fact that the son of Angelika –
Decker’s childhood sweetheart – is the primary suspect in the case. Cynical by nature, Decker’s eyes are gradually
opened to the fact that the town is about to be overrun by vampires, and the unbelievable realization that both he
and Stephan come from a historic line of vampire slayers. They must work fast to try to stop the evil Lukas from
executing his plan, but in the end it is up to Carmilla – who wants nothing more than to be human and free to love
without restriction – who must make the most difficult choice of her life.
