The title character of the show, Alexander Lucard, was played by Geordie Johnson. (I don't know if the accent was real or not, but it was great, and when he wasn't vamped out, he wasn't too bad to look at either.) A. Lucard (Dracula spelled backwards) was a tycoon who ran his own international business called Lucard Industries. He walked about in the daylight, ate food like the rest of us and drank lots of blood. Only a select few knew he was a vampire, but he was a very visible man in the financial world.
Highlighted as characters were some fellow vampires (such as seen below).
Here we see Dr. Gabor Varney - vampire bone doctor, one of Lucard's foulest enemies Nosferatu, his traitorous sidekick Klaus and Sophie (one of the vampire hunters on the wrong side of the stake). Klaus is the son of Gustav Van Helsing (Lucard's arch enemy). Lucard fed on him one night in revenge upon Gustav. Klaus provides a rash, impulsive foil to Dracula's thoughtful character, and they have one great episode where they exchange quotes from Shakespeare. Click on the picture of Dracula and Klaus below to hear one such quote (my favorite from Romeo and Juliet).
