Very interesting story, I just felt like some of the horror was rooted in s*x in a way that didn’t add to the story for me. I know Dracula is heavily based in undermining women and upholding old stereotype, but it took me out of the story sometimes. Had me rooting for those ladies tho! Also interesting to think about how long it actually took them to tell this whole story.
