Count Orlok
- Ellen Hutter: I have felt you... crawling like a serpent in my body.
- Count Orlok: It is not me. It is your own nature.
- Ellen Hutter: No! I love Thomas.
- Count Orlok: Love is inferior to you. I told you, you are not of Human kind.
- Ellen Hutter: You are a villain to speak so!
- Count Orlok: I am an appetite, nothing more.
- [first lines]
- Ellen Hutter: [sobbing] Come to me. Come to me. A guardian angel. A spirit of comfort. Spirit of any celestial sphere. Anything. Hear my call.
- [in her mind]
- Ellen Hutter: Come to me.
- Count Orlok: [telepathically, in subtitled Dacian] You.
- [Ellen goes into a trance and approaches Count Orlok's silhouette]
- Count Orlok: You wakened me from an eternity of darkness. You... You... You are not for the living. You are not for human kind. And shall you be one with me ever-eternally? Do you swear it?
- Ellen Hutter: I swear...
- Ellen Hutter: You are a deceiver.
- Count Orlok: You deceive yourself.
- Ellen Hutter: I was but an innocent child.
- Count Orlok: And thought you I would not return? Thought you I would not? Your passion is bound to me.
- Ellen Hutter: You cannot love.
- Count Orlok: I cannot. Yet I cannot be sated without you.
- [his breathing becomes lustful]
- Count Orlok: Remember how once we were. A moment. Remember?
- Ellen Hutter: I abhor you.
- Count Orlok: [screaming] You are false!
- Thomas Hutter: I have been enduring the most irregular dreams. I fear I have taken ill.
- Count Orlok: It is a black omen to journey in poor health. You will remain and well rest yourself.
- Thomas Hutter: I must object, My Lord.
- Count Orlok: You will obey this, my counsel.
- Count Orlok: I will leave you three nights! Tonight was the first!
- Ellen Hutter: Denied myself? You revel in my torture!
- Thomas Hutter: Yes, of course, sir.
- Count Orlok: Lord.
- Thomas Hutter: Pardon me, sir?
- Count Orlok: Your Lord. I will be addressed as thehonour of my blood demands it.
- Thomas Hutter: Yes, my lord. Forgive me, my lord.
- Count Orlok: How I look forward to retiring to your safe city of a modern mind, who knows nothing of... nor believes any such morbid... fairytales. A modern city full of modern, youthful beating hearts.
- Count Orlok: [hypnotizing Ellen, in subtitled Dacian] Your husband is lost to you. Dream of me. Only me. Only me.
