Giunto dalla natia Pennsylvania, negli anni '50, a Los Angeles, il giovane Edward D. Wood Jr. è reduce dall'insuccesso teatrale del suo lavoro "The Casual Company". Determinante è l'incontro col suo idolo Bela Lugosi. Questi, personificazione del mito di Dracula, è disoccupato da 4 anni, vive del sussidio di disoccupazione, è da tempo alcolizzato e morfinomane, ma Ed riversa su di lui tutto l'affetto e l'ammirazione che ha in sé.
