Best Answer

When her brother turned into a werewolf and Anna and Van Helsing tracked him to Frankenstein's castle, they realized that it was the stroke of midnight and the full moon that had caused her brother to fall completely under Dracula's control. Later, after Van Helsing becomes a werewolf, there is a race against time in the final act for Van Helsing to kill Dracula before he becomes completely a slave to him. Prior to midnight, Dracula does appear to have influence over him, but not enough to completely control him.
