Vlad from Cellblock D
Some cages were meant to hold monsters. Some create them.
Transylvania — 1666
Vlad Dracula stands at the height of his power.
His army has crushed a consortium of his greatest enemies. The battlefield surrounding Bran Castle is covered with the bodies of the defeated, while Vlad’s victorious soldiers chant his name.
Bran Castle is more than a fortress. It is the heart of Vlad’s empire—protected by a loyal army, guarded by creatures of the night, and thought to be impenetrable.
Never been more celebrated.
Never been more secure.
After delivering his victory speech, Vlad steps safely inside his castle and enters his private sanctuary.
Cellblock D — 2020
Vlad awakens face-down in a pool of his own blood.
Bran Castle is gone.
His army is gone.
More than three centuries have passed—and one of history’s most feared rulers is now weak, starving and trapped inside Voiden-Gate, a modern maximum-security prison.
The inmates see an emaciated stranger.
The guards see another violent prisoner.
Neither realizes what has just awakened inside Cellblock D.
Stripped of his kingdom and nearly all his power, Vlad must survive long enough to understand this unfamiliar world, uncover what happened inside Bran Castle—and find his way home.
But first, he’ll have to survive his new cellmate.
His name is Big Ren.
Vlad from Cellblock D is an offbeat collision of supernatural action, brutal horror, prison drama and dark comedy—a Dracula story unlike any told before. One of history’s most notorious figures has conquered armies, inspired legends and terrified the world.
Now, he has to survive Cellblock D.
