Ankhesenamun, known only as the Queen, and her husband King Tut remains and sarcophaguses were on display at a museum and were going to be moved to a museum in New York, when the truck transporting them was overrun by vampires. Frankie Laredo, a servant of King Tut was able to use an ancient spell to awaken the Queen, but she was soon attacked, bitten and killed by a vampire. Her death was enough to awaken King Tut, who with the help of Frankie was able to destroy the vampire coven.
To King Tut and Frankie surprise, the Queen was not dead, she had turned into a vampire and what is odder she was now a man. This was part of the curse the vampires had, anyone bitten would turn into a vampire and change genders. The new Queen disgusts her former husband. This leads to Frankie leaving Ankhesenamun at roadside rest stop, where she kills everyone inside in a vampire rage.
