Gloria Holden credited as playing...
Countess Marya Zaleska (Dracula's Daughter)
- Dr. Garth: Where's Janet?
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Safe... so far.
- Dr. Garth: If you've harmed her...
- Countess Marya Zaleska: You're not in London now, Dr. Garth, with your police. You're in Transylvania, in my castle.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Why are you looking at me that way?
- Sandor: I'm remembering last night... and waiting.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: You think this night will be like all the others, don't you? Well, you're wrong. Dracula's destroyed. His body's in ashes. The spell is broken. I can live a normal life now, think normal things. Even play normal music again. Listen. A cradle song. A song my mother once sang to me long, long ago, rocking me to sleep as she sang in the twilight.
- Sandor: Twilight.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Quiet. Quiet. You disturb me. Twilight. Long shadows on the hillsides.
- Sandor: Evil shadows.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: No. No, peaceful shadows, the flutter of wings in the treetops.
- Sandor: The wings of bats.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: No. No, the wings of birds. From far off, the barking of a dog.
- Sandor: Barking because there are wolves about.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Silence! I forbid you!
- Sandor: Forbid? Why are you afraid?
- Countess Marya Zaleska: I'm not. I'm not. I found release!
- Sandor: That music doesn't speak of release.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: No. No! You're right!
- Sandor: That music tells of the dark, evil things, shadowy places.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Stop. Stop! STOP!
- Dr. Garth: You know, this is the first woman's flat I've been in that didn't have at least twenty mirrors in it.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: I'm glad you're not your friend, Professor Van Helsing.
- Dr. Garth: Why?
- Countess Marya Zaleska: He'd probably attach some occult significance to my lack of mirrors.
- Dr. Garth: Occult?
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Well, I seem to remember an old Hungarian legend that a vampire casts no reflection in a mirror.
- Lili: Why are you looking at me that way? Won't I do?
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Yes, you'll do very well indeed. Do you like jewels, Lili? This is very old and very beautiful, I'll show it to you.
- Lili: I don't think I'll pose tonight. I think I'll go, if you don't mind... Please don't come any closer!
- [She screams]
- Dr. Garth: Hypnosis, eh?
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Something older, and more powerful.
- Dr. Garth: Whatever it is, I'll bring her out of it.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Like the other one, who died? Her pulse is weak, Dr. Garth, growing weaker. All your skill cannot help her now. She's under a spell that can be broken only by me... or death.
- Dr. Garth: Well, strangely enough, Van Helsing takes his vampires quite seriously.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Why not? Possibly there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamed of in your psychiatry, Mr. Garth.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Oh, good evening, Miss Blake. Is Dr. Garth here?
- Janet Blake: I'm sorry. He's just left.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Oh.
- Miss Peabody - Nurse: May I go to supper now, Dr. Garth?
- Dr. Garth: Yes, yes, by all means. Go ahead.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Why was it necessary to lie?
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Be thou exorcised oh Dracula, and thy body long undead find destruction throughout eternity in the name of thy dark unholy Master. In the name of the oh holiest and through this cross be the evil spirit cast out until the end of time
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Dr. Garth, I asked you here tonight because I need your help.
- Dr. Garth: As a psychiatrist?
- Countess Marya Zaleska: As a man of strength and courage.
- Dr. Garth: Well, I'm afraid that places me at a disadvantage.
- Janet Blake: Where's Dr. Garth?
- Countess Marya Zaleska: He'll be back presently. Won't you sit down? I'd like to talk to you.
- Janet Blake: Well, I'm sure we've nothing to discuss, Countess Zaleska.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: We might talk of Dr, Garth. He's interested in both of us.
- Janet Blake: I'm quite aware of his interest in you, Countess, as a psychiatrist.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Do you believe that the dead can influence the living?
- Dr. Garth: Well, in what way?
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Could you conceive of a superhuman mentality influencing someone from the other side of death?
- Dr. Garth: No.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: There is such a one.
- Dr. Garth: Mm-hmm. Well, go on.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Someone... something that reaches out from beyond the grave and fills me with horrible impulses.
- Dr. Garth: Well, how can I help you?
- Countess Marya Zaleska: Use my brain, my will, for an instrument as he has used them, but for release.
- Dr. Garth: Your mind has the power to do that.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: No.
- Countess Marya Zaleska: You're a great doctor. A doctor of minds, of souls. I need you, Dr. Garth. I need you to save my soul.
- Dr. Garth: How can you expect me even to listen to you, when you're concealing the truth about yourself?
- Countess Marya Zaleska: But I have told you all I can now.
- Dr. Garth: You mean, you've told me all you dare.
