  • Take a bite out of Renfield on August 9

Everyone knows Transylvania's most famous resident, Count Dracula, but in Renfield the story focuses on Drac's assistant.

This zany comedy explores what happens when Renfield tries to break the cycle of codependency once and for all... if Dracula will allow it.
