Van Helsing was from the original Bram Stoker's Dracula written in 1897, but that was Abraham Van Helsing. Not sure how 'Gabriel' came about.

They used the name "Gabriel" because, in the movie, he was the Archangel Gabriel.

The reveal in the movie that, from my recollection(I haven't seen it in a while) that Gabriel was the Archangel, who seemingly cast down(I beleive) and got amnesia. So, he basically didn't know who he was.

Cronqvist cast out Gabriel who becomes eventually vampire, whereas Gabriel cast out by Yahweh becomes a werewolf  :o

I guess LoS's twist wasn't as bad as Van Helsing's!

Wow... this is Van Helsing still? I don't remember ANY of that. I do remember the dopey werewolf vs Dracula CGI battle though.
