William Hargood

William Hargood is the tertiary antagonist of Taste the Blood of Dracula.
== Biography ==
William Hargood physically abused his daughter Alice at some point during her childhood. 
Years later, when he catches his daughter Alice flirting with Paul Paxton, he becomes furious over it.
Hargood later goes out with Jonathan Secker and Samuel Paxton to a brothel where they meet prostitutes, until Lord Courtley arrives and hires them to join the ceremony to revive his master Count Dracula.
Hargood, Secker, and Paxton then meet up with Courtley at the abandoned church, who puts a dried blood into goblets and mixes it with drops of his own blood, telling them to drink it. They refuse, so Courtley drinks the blood himself, screams and falls on the floor. As Courtley grabbed Hargood's legs, Hargood, Secker, and Paxton beat him to death, then they flee from the abandoned church, leaving Courtley's dead body behind (whose body then becomes the revived Dracula's avatar, who vows revenge on Hargood, Secker, and Paxton for killing Courtley).
When his daughter Alice is invited to a party by her boyfriend Paul, Hargood forbids her from going, but as he leaves for a meeting with Secker and Paxton, Alice goes to the party with Paul anyway, disobeying Hargood's orders.
Hargood later returns to his house, and when Alice comes back from the party, Hargood catches her, then he attempts to physically abuse her (which he hasn't done since her childhood) as a punishment for disobeying his orders, but she runs from him outside the house until encountering Dracula, who then takes control of Alice's mind via hypnosis and as Hargood chases her, she picks up a shovel and kills him. While dying, he looks up at Dracula, before collapsing dead.
