HORROR UPON HORROR in the HOUSE OF DRACULA (taglines)
Count Dracula
The music will come to you again. My world is waiting for you. Forsake the cross so that you can join me there.
Lawrence Talbot
Who are these people? Get them out of here. I didn't come here to be put on exhibition.
Dr. Franz Edelman
Now, Mr. Talbot... You broke your promise to me, didn't you? Told the police. I don't like people who break their promises, Mr. Talbot.
You wanted to die, but instead you will live 'cause God in his diving workings has led you to the very thing which makes help possible.
Dialogue
Dr. Edelman: What are you doing here? Who are you?
Count Dracula: I am Baron Latos. I have come to you for help.
Dr. Edelman: It's five o'clock in the morning.
Count Dracula: I must apologize for the intrusion. But travel is very difficult for me, and I've come a long way.
Dr. Edelman: I don't understand.
Count Dracula: Perhaps you will, after you've led me to the basement room of this castle.
Dr. Edelman: Eh - a very strange request. This castle is my home!
Count Dracula: Have no fear, doctor. Had conditions permitted, I would have presented myself in the usual manner.
Dr. Edelman: Well, it is most unusual...
Count Dracula: I will explain everything, before sunrise.
Milizia Morelle: I've never heard this music before, yet I'm playing it.
Count Dracula: You're creating it, for me.
Milizia Morelle: It frightens me.
Count Dracula: It's beautiful, it's the music of the world from which I come.
Militza Morelle: It makes me see strange things, people who are dead, yet they're alive.
Count Dracula: Mine is a world without material needs.
Militza Morelle: But I'm afraid.
Count Dracula: The fear will pass as the music becomes fixed in your mind. It will make you long to be there.
Miliza Morelle: You like it?
Count Dracula: It breaths the spirit of the night. They played it the evening we met at the concert.
Miliza Morelle: I'd forgotten... until I saw you again.
Count Dracula: Perhaps I wanted you to remember.
Miliza Morelle: Your world is coming closer to me. But I'm afraid.
Count Dracula: It is a world without fear. It is like the music. Beautiful. Beautiful.
Lawrence Talbot: Why did you follow me down here?
Dr. Edelman: To bring you back, my boy.
Lawrence Talbot: Bring me back to a life of misery and despair?
Lawrence Talbot: Dr. Edelman, this thing destroyed Frankenstein. It's brought death to all who have tried to follow in his footsteps.
Dr. Edelman: Is that poor creature responsible for what he is?
Dr. Edelman: I'll operate tomorrow, Nina.
Nina: Then you must operate on Mr. Talbot. The moon will be full in a few days. We can't let him suffer again.
Dr. Edelman: But you - You've waited such a long time.
Nina: Then I can wait a little longer. It won't make any difference.
Count Dracula: Dr. Edelman, do you believe in the immortality of the soul?
Dr. Edelman: Naturally, being a religious man.
Count Dracula: Of the body?
Dr. Edelman: Medical science refutes such a thing.
Count Dracula: Just as it denies the existence of vampirism.
Count Dracula: Do you doubt the supernatural?
Dr. Edelman: I find it difficult to believe that a human being can change himself into a bat, or that by feeding upon the blood of the living he can obtain eternal life. But what has this discussion to do with us, Baron Latos?
Count Dracula: Perhaps a great deal, Doctor.
Nina: Think what you're doing, Doctor. To bring him back again would unleash worse than murder upon humanity.
Dr. Edelman: That helpless body is man's responsibility.
Nina: Man's responsibility is to his fellow man.
Dr. Edelman: Can man sit in judgment over life and death?
Nina: The evil he creates, he can also destroy.
Dr. Edelman: That would be murder.
