Well.... I tried out one little scene..
I was thinking:
1 parallell light for main lightning
1 faint fill light to ease up the shadows just a bit

The first main light is slightly dimmed. I guess that depends on
the conditions you want if you want that or not.
The fill light has approx half the strength of the main light.
Both of them has a slight blue tint to them.
And.. if it was me.. I would postprocess it a bit too
with bringing up the contrast in *place your favourite
pixel pushing program here*. :)

In the second image I moved the lights a bit
to keep the shadows. Both of them are just quick and dirty.

Hmm.. I think there's a Draculas Castle contest going on
on CGTalk.com. Perhaps you can get som inspiration there?
