From directors Roger A. Fratter and Davide Pesca, coming in around 25 minutes, and released in 2017, this is on the same DVD as Seta da Vampira and achieves more (albeit simple) narrative integrity than Fratter’s earlier feature.
It starts with Super 8 footage and a voiceover by Elga (Beata Walewska), she is addressing us through her boyfriend (Davide Pesca), saying that this was footage shot by her father and drawing attention to the mysterious black robed figure that apparently was not there when it was shot. She says that, after his death, she discovered her father was an occultist.

Her boyfriend and his friend (Stephan H. Asler) are out and about, and the boyfriend is complaining about her obsession with a vampire woman she dreams of, who wanders the woods half naked. It is likely he is more bothered by the frisson of sexual excitement revealed in her voice when she speaks about her.

Elga awakens after dreaming of the vampire (Mery Rubes) and, whilst sat at the kitchen table, reveals her father’s footage is gone but she has some stills of the vampire and that proves her reality. Her acquaintance Ratlof (Roger A. Fratter) comes round and suggests that the pictures are from a photoshoot and the woman in them is a model – he has a photo from her career too. His doubting makes Elga react angrily to him.

Her boyfriend also doesn’t believe in the vampire and Elga says she will go to the woods to find her – the boyfriend suggesting if she doesn’t come back he won’t go looking for her. In the woods she, of course, finds the vampire. Is she real or a figment of Elga’s imagination? What will she do to Elga? How will that impact the boyfriend? All is kind of revealed in the denouement.
