Håkan's last attempt to get blood fails and he's caught. Just before capture, however, he intentionally disfigures himself with acid so that the police will not be able to trace Eli through him. When Eli finds him in the hospital, Håkan offers his blood and is drunk dry while sitting on the window ledge, but a guard interrupts them and Eli fails to kill him. So that he won't also end up becoming a vampire, Håkan throws himself out of the window to the ground below. Despite this, he reanimates as a mindless vampire driven only by his desire for Eli. Håkan then relentlessly pursues Eli, managing to trap her in a basement before trying to rape her, but she fights him off and escapes. Later, the wounded Håkan is destroyed by Tommy who accidentally gets locked in the basement with him.
