As Duckula and his family retainers are cleaning out the attic one night, they find a newspaper with the main article depicting a Gold Rush in the Yukon. As soon as Duckula grasps that the gold may be his for the taking, the castle is set off to the Yukon to seek gold, and the three gold-seekers stop in the prospecting town of Goldsville, though the residents are not revealed to the protagonists as what they truly are, ghosts.

Count Duckula is eating his breakfast, expecting nothing out of the ordinary when he checks his mail, revealing a ransom note for him saying that the Count has been kidnapped and can be saved if the servants will amass fifty-thousand Transylvanian drachmas to give to the kidnappers. Nanny sees the letter and runs off in fear, bleating that Duckula is missing, though Duckula was not. It is then that the kidnappers are shown; they are two inept gentlemen living in Transylvania, one of who mistakenly sent off the letter before capturing the Count. To correct this, the kidnappers set off to the castle to try and capture him. To complicate matters even more than they already are, Von Goosewing shows up at the castle, crashing through the roof and landing in a bed, where the kidnappers find him, and think that it is the Count Duckula himself, so they make off with him. Nanny and Igor head off in search of the Count with the money in tow, dropping it off at the indicated place, and when Duckula is found, attempt to head off to the kidnappers' home and try to fix this egregious error, not knowing that now that the money has been received, the kidnappers wish to explain that they plan to return the money so as to start the whole kidnapping scam over again. Duckula accepts, realizing that they are fools, and soon makes things miserable for the kidnappers by playing music which they hate on his banjo.

Coutn Duckula, Nanny, and Igor all head out to the movie theater one night, seeing the film "The Lost Valley", which leaves Igor bothered (he wished to see a film on Bela Lugosi, and hates fiction) and Duckula starstruck, which means that he is then fantasizing about heading to the Lost Valley to find the treasures there. Count Duckula (by some paradoxical ploy) transports the castle to the fictitious world of the Lost Valley, where he meets the natives and attempts to find the treasures there. They are found, but Duckula is dissatisfied when he finds out that they are cheap props, and to make matters worse, the castle soon transports off without its inhabitants, leaving them stuck in the film, which soon ends, and leaves them in the screen

Von Goosewing is shown brooding as usual that he cannot capture the Count Duckula as he wishes, but soon has an idea to capture him and end him for good: Von Goosewing plans to shrink the Castle Duckula so as to put its and its inhabitants in a snow-globe, where they will be no danger to anyone, (thought they were not to begin with) and with this new plot in mind, Von Goosewing works hard constantly (for years) building a machine that can shrink the castle itself to a snow-globe size, though he inevitably drops it off the edge of a cliff, where it rolls into a gift shop, and is put on the shelf with other globes. Von Goosewing does not know which one could contain the real Castle and so he left with the forced choice of having to buy them all so as to crack them all open. When Count Duckula realizes what has happened, he begins to panic; what will happen to him if he is tiny forever? And so he, Igor, and Nanny head off to the shrink ray to try and reverse the effect, though they are saved the trouble when they realize that they can simply find the ray and reverse it. Von Goosewing, however, being a dim bulb, realizes that now his quarry has escaped him, and thus shrinks himself down to size so as to look for Duckula, but as he is small, sees that the effect projected by the machine does not last long.

Count Duckula wakes up one morning plagued by bright lights coming from outside, only to find out that the lights are coming from a filming crew, who has set out to make a documentary about the life of the Count Duckula, and Duckula jumps for joy at the prospect of this, and is sorely disappointed that the host of the show prefers Igor as the Count and Nanny as a Countess, leaving the true Count Duckula as the servants. This infuriates Duckula and causes troubles much later for him, as he is booted out of his own castle.

Igor is summoning his new pet, a "bloodsuckung fruit bat" and plots to use his pet to convert Count Duckula into the vampire that he truly is, but fails when he finds out that Nanny and Duckula have been treating the bat (known to Igor as "Fang" but to Nanny and Duckula as "Fluffykins") as a benevolent pet. Igor realizes that his plan has gone awry when this happens and so plots to head to South America to go and find another bat like Fang, or rather, like Fluffykins so as to restart the training of said bat to convert Duckula into a vampire. Igor thus tricks Duckula into sending the castle off to South America to find a bat, and the four of them all meet a zoologist there who is looking for such a bat, as well as a tribe of warrior women who not only resemble Nanny in exact appearance, but capture Duckula, Igor, and the zoologist, making Nanny their queen. Nanny convinces them to release Duckula and co. so as to let them continue hunting for the bat needed. But this proves to have rather a surprising event.

Duckula is forced to put up with the summer heat in Transylvania and finally decides that he wants no more of the heat, so he and his servants set off in the castle to the Arctic. When the trio sets camp outside in the snow, they find a stately igloo, headed by a servile penguin known as Jives who claims that his master is gone, and due to his absence, Duckula may use the master bedroom. Hearing that Duckula is fed up with Igor's sepulchral manner, Jives offers to serve for Duckula, and in turn, Igor is dismissed, in favor of Jives and his distant cousins, which all work as maids, cooks, etc. With that in mind, Igor teams up with Dr. Von Goosewing to try and rid Duckula of these newfound servants, but Duckula may have his own problems with these new workers.

Count Duckula has yet another venture of success and fame planned: to be a jazz musician. To do this, he, Igor, and Nanny have set out to the Mississippi to find the means for Duckula to be a musician. When he is kicked out of a local jazz club for sounding bad, he states out loud that he "killed them", which is to say, he was better. But a local steamboat captain takes these words to mean that he is actually a hit-man, and offers the Count a job aboard his ship. Duckula accepts, not knowing what is in store for him.
