The Vampyre
Nosferatu
The heart is a mummy, a sound
Arriving as a bat in slow motion
Something horrible happening
When are we and Where is Kinski to deal with these small cats
The horses wait for the story
Bitte kommen sie nahe
freely composed
Nosferatu, a symphony of horror.
The Great Death in Wisborg
1838 Does not this wind sound like the call since the pictures of life
... he sent me a letter
Somewhere over the Carpathian mountains und vielleicht ein wenig Blut
Count Orlock—his Lordship ...from Transylvania
That house... opposite yours ...and a bit of blood...
get away from these canals in Mitten der woods
Tall chairs over paper walls
Lucy’s drop earrings say no
Wolfe. Banditen. Und Geiste.
I feel a kind of... ...dark force...
Why have you killed them ....the beautiful flowers..?!
Do not worry
away to the country of thieves and ghosts.
Are you really going there? Ja. Warum?
And people disappear without a trace.
I know a few gypsies ...who have been on the other side... ...the light suddenly divides and...
There used to be a castle there
The music knows better.
...and never returns. beyond death...
The curse of Nosferatu.
The iris swallows her whole. from the fields of the Black Death
Throw the book away.
There is no road to the Borgo pass.
But it’s right there.
Ich habe keine horses.
I don’t have any Kutsche. Don’t you see?
Vom Schloßberg war nichts zu sehn, Nebel und Finsternis umgaben ihn, auch nicht der schwachste Lichtschein deutete das große Schloß an.
We are not going any further!”
The peak could not be seen, fog and darkness surrounded it, so the faint glow did not reveal the great castle.
The mist threatens to reveal
The castle gone dark.
Ich bin Graf Dracula und heiße sie meinen Schloß willkommen.
At the river pass
He looks down on himself.
Blue is the night
Höhren Sie, die Kinder der Nacht, wie sie Musik machen.
His head is a moon in the void
Over a plan
The negative trail.
The hood threatens to reveal
—I have waited too long
Sepia inside
{You’ve hurt yourself... The precious blood!}
He cannot hide behind
The high-backed chair
Of whom is he afraid?
And during the daytime I am always away.
We have all been trying to sleep
We wake up rather gray
[The outer ruins] after a tiresome journey The castle is unreal
And Dracula reads over my shoulder Ich liebe die Dunkelheit und die Schatten. Time is an tausend abyss Nächte tief.
We cannot read his neck
The mirror smiles
my friend, I will be in a very deep sleep indeed—“
The mosquitos are a real pest. I’ve got two bites on the neck,
The ghostly evening light again seemed to revive the shadows of the castle.
“Your wife has a beautiful neck...”
Can you imagine enduring centuries experiencing the same futility each day?
He floats in blue
Boxed by a doorway
She flies upside down over water
He feeds in silence
A gauze cast over the proceedings
He rises in sepia
While she sleeps in blue
And walks the rail
Her arms across the scene
Daylight locks the castle down
The count has gone to Wismar.
[Renfield bookended by the assistants]
The mail from Transylvania is
God is far away when we need
on the River Again
We are very slow.
“...almost only a phantom...”
we found nothing, except rats
Best lash yourself to the slo-mo bat the fiend on deck the ship in the canal
Der Meister ist close.
There’s not a soul on board.
The ship is full of ropes. The wraith in the hold Rises to the deck.
“The master is hier...
She reaches for the sails.
The Vampyre assembles his props
Wir bringen hier ein Mann...
Dr. Von Helsing. Do you think we’ve all gone mad...
Step into the frame & turn into the camera
Finally the shadow arrives
I know who you are.
from the goddamned soil
He disappears into a door
He bites the vocal chords.
The rivers continue to flow without us. ...they wander toward us in a very strange way.
Nur den Tod is certain.
The monster begs ...is the most abject pain.
The monster whines & leaves.
The wind goes blue as night.
She watches death from the curtain.
—if she was to give him her blood willingly.
He waits behind blue squares.
Until the cock crows
Return the slow bat
Flies on song
We’ve contracted the plague.
Stay the monster
Til daylight takes us back.
Finally the shadow arrives
To take her heart
the death bird was blown away.
[The castle remains]
