When Eva arrives in New York City she learns of a evil ritual and quick tracks down the source, Count Orlok. She stops the ritual and kills Orlok, but doesn't learn until later that Orlok was stealing the Darkness from Jackie Estacado, and by interrupting the ritual the Darkness has a new obsession, her. She then spends the next few nights killing vampires and Werewolves looking for Jackie.
She finally tracks him to his apartment but when he releases the Darkness, it flows onto Eva and into her. She escapes into the day light, after Jackie puts a bullet into her shoulder, but she can tell something is different and wrong.
That night Eva is tempted by the Darkness and lets it over take her so she can kill Mr. Barzini, a century old vampire. She then captures Jackie and demand he take back his curse, but he can't and instead of living with the Darkness she jumps to her death.
Because she committed suicide, Eva finds herself in Hell in front of the Devil. He wants to torture her but he made a deal when she was created that she would kill Dracula and he forced to send her back to Earth where she can continue her quest to kill her father.

Then later, under the direction of Brandon Jerwa and Edgar Salazar Eva was giving a deeper backstory and a slightly different origin in Eva: Daughter of the Dragon.
