Van Helsing is a foundamental character for the development of the story. We see him for the first time when Dr.Seward doesn't manage to cure Lucy from her "illness". So Dr.Seward decides to call Van Helsing from Holland. When he visits Lucy he realises that there's something more than an ordinary illness. In fact he informs the other characters of the existens of a supernatural creature: a vapire. Now Lucy has became a woman vampire too who sucks human's blood in order to survive. So Van Helsing explains that they have to kill her definetly. Than, thanks to Jonathan's diary, Van Helsing manages to find Dracula's castle. Here with Mina and the other male characters (Jonathan, Dr.Seward, Lord Godalming and Quincy Morris) they kill for ever the vampire that, before dying, transforms himself in dust. Van Helsing was the only who knew the presence of the vampire. Without his intervention Dr.Seward and the others couldn't helped Lucy and saved Mina.
