Transylvania was an aborted spin-off television series of the film Van Helsing set in the region of the same name. NBC was going to use the film's village sets, setting it in the same 19th century time period as the film, but instead focus on the adventures of a Texas cowboy who becomes sheriff in a Transylvanian village, where he must keep the peace between two warring families with some "monstrous genes". Its connection to the film story-wise was planned as non-existent.

Due to poor US box-office, critical panning and a large budget for each episode, the series was cancelled with before it was ever added to a network schedule. Van Helsing's writer/director Stephen Sommers wrote the pilot and supervised six episode scripts.
