This is #5 and one of the better Scott Adams efforts.
Count Dracula is stalking you, and you need to fend him off while you're
assembling the requisite tools to defeat him. Requires long-range planning
in a way that almost guarantees you'll have to replay, but it's a minor
sin since the game is relatively short (and it also makes the game feel
more complex and involved). One of the most interesting features is
that the game is spread over three nights (and you need to avoid getting
attacked when you fall asleep the first two nights); your dreams, though
they flash by too quickly for you to really see, point to something
significant that you discover later in the game. Most of the vampire
cliches surface at one point or another, but Adams has fun with some
of them as well, and generally it's pretty good considering the limited
medium.
