Description 

Climb the slab leading up to the left side of the steep piece of rock described below on a fun 5.9 or 5.10- slab past 5 or so bolts. Follow 5 bolts up a scoop through the middle of the steepness, making fun technical moves, until you can make a long move to the right arete of the steep face (crux). Swing around the corner and follow easier climbing past 2 more bolts to the anchors.

Location 

Between Gyromancy and Specter is a steep piece of rock with three lines of bolts on it. Dracula climbs the middle of the three.

Protection 

12 QDs and something for the anchor.
