Van Helsing

The cast and showrunner of Van Helsing give an extended preview of the show, and how it will turn the vampire genre on its head.

It's Vanessa Helsing vs. vampires in post-apocalyptic Seattle.

Three years after 'The Rising' began, Vanessa - a mysterious dead woman - is resurrected in a world now ruled by vampires.

In the days leading up to 'The Rising', Vanessa is attacked and left for dead by an intruder.

When the hospital's power source is damaged, Vanessa and the survivors only have three hours of reserve power for the UV lights - the only thing keeping the vampires at bay.

Vanessa and Mohamad head into the vampire-controlled streets in search of Dylan, the daughter that Vanessa orphaned when she 'died'.

Vanessa, now in the clutches of Julius and his vampire brood, is forced to demonstrate her powers against someone from her past.

Vanessa and Susan are pursued through the sewers by mutated feral vampires and arrive back at the safety of the hospital only to find the aftermath of a hostile takeover.

Vanessa and Axel lead the others in the hospital's last stand against a siege by Julius and his vampire soldiers.

Axel leads the surviving members of their group towards his old military base for shelter but finds it abandoned and in disrepair.

The group is trapped inside 'The Farm' - an underground lab for military experiments - and Vanessa discovers that Axel has been hiding a secret from her that concerns her past.

Still reeling from the dire events of 'The Farm', Vanessa and the group find refuge among a band of humans who have bargained with vampires for peace.

Vanessa and the group take shelter on Susan's family farm, finding both glimmers of hope and reasons for grief.

While on the road to a vampire-controlled camp, Vanessa and Mohamad find themselves in a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse against Sam.

Now in Dmitri and Rebecca's clutches, Vanessa learns secrets from her past and finds herself at a crossroads - is she a vampire or a human?
