'Van Helsing' is drawing to a close. The fifth season of 'Van Helsing' has been announced to be its final one, bringing the story of a vampire hunter in a post-apocalyptic world in which the vampires rule to a close.
Following the events of the fourth season, the Dark One (Tricia Helfer) has broken free of the Dark Realm, and is currently impersonating the President of what's left of America, with no one to stop her as she heads to a mysterious paradise that's somehow free of vampiric influence.

Plot
'Van Helsing' is set in a world that's been taken over by vampires, who began the apocalypse in an event known as 'The Rising.'
With dominion over the Earth, most humans are just trying to survive, until the awakening of Vanessa van Helsing (Kelly Overton), a woman with unique abilities that help her combat and even cure vampires.
