Follow the classic supernatural tale of forbidden love between a devout priest and a beautiful vampiress in The Dead Woman in Love.

At sixty-six years of age, an elderly priest is finally ready to tell the story of his first and only love. Over forty years ago, on the day of his Ordination, Lord Romulad lays eyes on a creature that shines brighter than the stars in heaven. With an almost hypnotic radiance, the young madonna's beauty almost convinces Romulad to abandon his religious duty but, ignoring his lustful feelings, he completes his ceremony to become a priest and is left knowing only her name, Clarimonde.

Unable to forget her, Romulad quickly becomes dissatisfied with his newfound priesthood, gaining the attention of Father Serapion who delievers a warning: the woman he seeks is not only dead, but has died many timesher tomb a place of filth and debacbuatry. However, undettered by these rumors, Romulad follows a mysterious stranger to the castle of Clarimonde and thus begins the love affair that would change his life forever.
