Dracula is used to pull you to the film, but he's a patsy ultimately. Kay, who was always a bit "morbid" according to Harry Brewster, watches as her witch "swamp rat with her potions, stuffed toads and dead chickens" perishes as bat Drac flaps towards her, causing a "heart attack" knowingly allowing this predator to prey upon new soil in her Louisiana hometown. Her own father, after updating his will, is Dracula's next victim, and Kay barely breaks from stone cold assurance that this was her doing. She takes Claire, her sister, away because she doesn't need to see her father...Kay, however, isn't bothered at all. When Frank confronts Dracula, and he's grabbed by the throat and easily tossed aside, Kay reacts as if thrilled by the strength invested in securing her possession. She's always been the real villain to me. Her not wanting to die sets her on an inconceivable quest to be with Frank forever... Dracula is a tool, nothing more.
