The story

What Is Karmina About?

The premise of Karmina without spoilers.

Karmina, a 140‑year‑old vampire, flees her Transylvanian castle to avoid marrying the monstrous Vlad, demanded by her cruel father the Baron and eccentric mother the Baronness. She takes refuge in Quebec with aunt Esméralda, who uses a potion to appear human. Under its effect Karmina falls for organist Philippe, but Vlad, the Barons and a newly‑turned vampire customs officer Ghislain chase her, prompting Esméralda to unleash her ancient powers to save the lovers.
