“Wake the Devil [Chapter One]”

The base of the recently revived Nazi scientists Kroenen, Haupstein, and Von Krupt in Norway is broached by Roderick Zinco, who tells them of a visitation by Rasputin and pledges the resources of the Zinco Corporation to the renewal of Project Ragna Rok. One year later, a briefing at BPRD headquarters in Fairfield recaps the history of suspected vampire Vladimir Giurescu, his ties to Project Ragna Rok, and the possible abduction of his body from a museum in New York City. Hellboy and five other agents are sent to Romania to locate Castle Giurescu before his body can be reanimated.
