Plot Summary (Paraphrased Style)
Years after his legendary crusade against the monsters of Transylvania, Gabriel Van Helsing has vanished from public memory—until a chilling force emerges from the shadows of Eastern Europe. Whispers of an ancient evil rising once more call him back into the world he tried to leave behind.

Haunted by his past and hunted by creatures of the night, Van Helsing must forge uneasy alliances and face unspeakable horrors as he uncovers a dark conspiracy threatening to unleash a war between the living and the damned.

From the icy peaks of the Carpathians to the ruined cathedrals beneath Prague, Van Helsing battles enemies both human and supernatural—on a mission that will test his faith, challenge his legacy, and push him beyond what he thought possible.
