Ellen Hutter: I know him.
Thomas Hutter: Know him?
Ellen Hutter: I’ve brought this evil upon us. I have never shared my secret with any soul. I sought company. I sought tenderness, and I called out.
Ellen Hutter: At first, it was sweet. I had never known such bliss. Yet it turned to torture. It would kill me. But, Thomas, it was you that gave me the courage to be free of my shame. You.
Ellen Hutter: He is my shame. He is my melancholy. He took me as his lover then, and now he has come back. He has discovered our marriage and has come back.
Ellen Hutter: [to Thomas] He told me about you. He told me how foolish you were. How fearful. How like a child. How you fell into his arms as a swooning lily of a woman.
Ellen Hutter: He told me how you sold me to him for gold.
Thomas Hutter: No, I…
Ellen Hutter: Our love was supposed to be sacred!
Ellen Hutter:[to Thomas] You never listen! Well, where is it? Your money? Your promotion? Your house? Where is that which is so precious to you? Have you paid back kind Harding your debt? Have you repaid him with this plague that infects his wife?
Ellen Hutter: [to Thomas] We should never have married. We’re already dead!
Ellen Hutter: [to Thomas] You could never please me as he could.
Ellen Hutter: [to Thomas] Kiss me. Kiss my heart. My heart. Let him see. Let him see our love. Without you, I will become a demon.
Ellen Hutter: Keep away from me. I am unclean.
Thomas Hutter: Never.
Ellen Hutter: He will murder you if I do not go to him. We will be torn apart, and the world will be despair.
Thomas Hutter: No. I’ll kill him. Kill him I will. He shall never harm you again. Never.
Prof. Albin Eberhart von Franz: “And lo, the maiden fair did offer up her love unto the beast and with him lay in close embrace until the first cock crow. Her willing sacrifice thus broke the curse and freed them from the plague of Nosferatu.” She is the way.
Prof. Albin Eberhart von Franz: The grim reaper wields his heavy scythe with every change of wind.
Prof. Albin Eberhart von Franz: We shall sanctify the earth wherein he is buried and destroy the sarcophagus. Then he can have no sanctuary at cock crow.
Ellen Hutter: I know. It must be me, Professor.
Prof. Albin Eberhart von Franz: I am but an able tourist in this occult world. You were born to it. It is a rare gift.
Ellen Hutter: His pull to me is so powerful, so terrible, yet my spirit cannot be evil as his.
Prof. Albin Eberhart von Franz: We must know evil to be able to destroy it. We must discover it within ourselves. And when we have, we must crucify the evil within us, or there is no salvation.
Ellen Hutter: I need no salvation. My entire life, I have done no ill but heed my nature.
Prof. Albin Eberhart von Franz: Then hearken to it. I fear Nosferatu is impervious to any of our iron stakes. I’m convinced only you have the faculty to redeem us.
Prof. Albin Eberhart von Franz: [to Ellen] In heathen times, you might have been a great priestess of Isis. Yet, in this strange and modern world, your purpose is of greater worth. You are our salvation.
Ellen Hutter: I am ready. I bid you, come to me.
Knock: I should have been the Prince of Rats, immortal.
Thomas Hutter: This is not moral!
Prof. Albin Eberhart von Franz: God is beyond our morals! In vain! In vain! You run in vain! You cannot outrun her destiny! Her dark bond with the beast shall redeem us all, for when the sun’s pure light shall break upon the dawn, redemption! The plague shall be lifted! Redemption!
Prof. Albin Eberhart von Franz: And lo, the maiden fair did offer up her love unto the beast and with him lay in close embrace until the first cock crow. Her willing sacrifice thus broke the curse and freed them from the plague of Nosferatu.
