Aryk Von Liechtenstein, the formidable leader of his vampire coven, moved to New Orleans from the old country in 1711. For generations, the descendants of Van Helsing tirelessly sought Aryk and his coven, determined to end their reign of terror. For nearly a century, Aryk managed to evade them, but by the early 1800s, the Van Helsings were closing in. To escape, Aryk moved his army to St. Louis.

In 1904, Aryk Von Liechtenstein and his army of the undead found a new hunting ground at the World’s Fair. With 19 million visitors, they had an unlimited feast for seven months. The bloodlust of Aryk and his coven led to the deaths of over 1,200 people, exposing their true nature and forcing them to flee further north.
Desperate to find a new sanctuary, Aryk sought a place where his Nest of vampires could remain hidden. They found solitude in a mausoleum about 75 miles north of St. Louis, in a quiet little town called Roodhouse. The mausoleum, shrouded in mist, filled with ancient coffins and the restless spirits of Aryk’s victims, has become their new lair. 

In 2021, a descendant of Van Helsing finally tracked down Aryk Von Liechtenstein and his Nest of vampires. After centuries of relentless pursuit, the Van Helsing heir managed to put an end to the formidable leader in his coffin, bringing a temporary peace to the world.

However, the darkness was far from over. Voltaire Chalamet, Aryk’s loyal general, rose from the shadows. With a new army of the undead, he lurks in the darkness, ready to pounce on unsuspecting visitors who enter The Nest.
