Geocache Description:

THE CACHE IS NOT LOCATED AT THE POSTED COORDINATES

To obtain this cache: first, you must do some filmography research, unless, of course, you are already a member of Dracula's Fang Club.. and then some simple math...




Dracula is a horror film directed by Tod Browning and starring Béla Lugosi as the title character. The film was produced by Universal and is based on the stage play of the same name by Hamilton Deane and John L. Balderston, which in turn is based on the novel Dracula by Bram Stoker.

When the film premiered at the Roxy Theatre in New York on Feb. 12, 19YY newspapers reported that members of the audiences fainted in shock at the horror on screen. This publicity, shrewdly orchestrated by the film studio, helped ensure people came to see the film, if for no other reason than curiosity. Dracula was a big gamble for a major Hollywood studio to undertake. In spite of the literary credentials of the source material, it was uncertain if an American audience was prepared for a serious full length supernatural chiller.


If you do not know already, determine YY

Subtract 1 from YY, and call the result X (YY - 1 = X)

Subtract X from the least "Northerly" digits (74 - X = NN)

Add X to the least "Westerly" digits (44 + X = WW)
