In Nosferatu, estate agent Thomas Hutter (Nicholas Hoult) travels to Transylvania for a fateful meeting with a prospective client named Count Orlok (Bill Skarsgård). While away, his new bride Ellen (Lily-Rose Depp) is plagued by visions and an increasing sense of dread in anticipation of an encounter with a horrifying force beyond her control.
