“Now is a time to rid the world of a demon.” RLJE Films and Shudder have revealed the official trailer for an indie horror-thriller creation called Abraham’s Boys: A Dracula Story, with that subtitle added on after the original debut title of just Abraham’s Boys. This premiered a few months ago at the 2025 Overlook Film Festival and will be out to watch in limited theaters this July – and then streaming on Shudder later in the year. Following the events of Dracula, Abraham van Helsing moves his two sons, Max and Rudy, to the US in an attempt to escape their past. Based on the spine-tingling short story by Joe Hill. Abraham’s Boys: A Dracula Story, directed by Natasha Kermani, re-imagines vampire lore through the eyes of Van Helsing’s sons as they unravel their father’s haunted legacy, blending classic gothic vampire horror with a modern exploration of generational trauma. Starring Titus Welliver as the OG Abraham Van Helsing, along with Jocelin Donahue, Aurora Perrineau, Judah Mackey, and Brady Hepner. This plays like a modern western meets gothic horror thriller, which doesn’t quite seem like it’ll work that well. Have a look anyway.

Abraham’s Boys follows Max & Rudy Van Helsing (Brady Hepner & Judah Mackey), who have spent their lives under the strict and overprotective rule of their father, Abraham. Unaware of his dark past, they struggle to understand his paranoia and increasingly erratic behavior. But when they begin to uncover the violent truths behind their father’s history with Dracula, their world unravels, forcing them to confront the terrifying legacy they were never meant to inherit. Abraham’s Boys: A Dracula Story, also known as just Abraham’s Boys, is written and directed by indie genre filmmaker Natasha Kermani, director of the films Imitation Girl and Lucky previously, plus some shorts and a segment of V/H/S/85. It’s based on the short story from Joe Hill. Produced by Leonora Darby, James Harris, James Herron, Tim Wu. This initially premiered at the 2025 Overlook Film Festival earlier this year. RLJE Films will debut Abraham’s Boys: A Dracula Story in select US theaters starting July 12th, 2025 coming soon this summer. Interested?
