Literally my favorite! It’s such an entertaining book, kinda spooky, very funny at the right times, and really touching and beautiful. It’s not really like what pop culture tells you it is — it’s WAY better. The characters are SO lovely and well-written and complex and you will fall in love with them (personally I think Jonathan Harker and Mina Murray are two of my all-time favorite characters in any piece of media, they are everything 💕).
If you can read it via Dracula Daily, do it, the experience is 10 times better, and there are memes :)

Great book but now I'm this close to upping stakes (haha) to go and be a vampire hunter somewhere in the deepest darkest Translyvanian forest

all i can think about when i read bram stoker is his fanboy letter to walt whitman. makes me wonder what drew him to write something like dracula? especially since mark doty makes a pretty interesting case that dracula was inspired by whitman!
