#Dracula (book)

me, when Jonny Sims appears in any piece of media he's been part of: oh hey. what's Jonny Sims doing in this piece of media I started consuming solely because Jonny Sims was in it.

“Do you believe in destiny? That even the powers of time can be altered for a single purpose? That the luckiest man who walks on this earth is the one who finds… true love?”

― Bram Stoker, Dracula.

I'm very happy with my new copy of Dracula, it's very stunning. 🖤

As a long-time fan of Stoker's book, Daily Dracula has me absolutely stoked because after decades of movie and TV adaptations slipping further and further from Stoker's work, and watering down Count Dracula's character into a generic romantic vampire and his enemies into milquetoast Victorian twats, the Internet is rediscovering that "Dracula" is really about a Victorian D&D party going full murderhobo on a megalomaniacal vampire supervillain as revenge for vamping their polycule sweetheart.

I've picked a wild garlic flower and placed it between the pages of Sep 11th (when Van Helsing gives Lucy the wild garlic flowers), so I will find (hopefully) a pressed garlic flower between the pages when we get to that entry. I've never pressed a flower before so I don't know if I'm doing it right or if it will work: wish me luck! I'll update you when we get to that entry

Okay, I have a beef to pick with vampire media after reading Dracula with all y'all. We've seen vampire hunters bedecked with garlic cloves, potential victim's rooms filled with strings of garlic, Lucy being depicted with a garland straight out of Strega Nona's pantry. Basically garlic cloves EVERYWHERE. And yet, something odd struck me when reading Dracula

They specifically say "garlic flowers"

It tickled my brain a bit when the phrase first appeared, but I paid it no mind. Then Lucy's mother died, and she used the only flowers available in the room to lay on her chest. The garlic. Why would Lucy lay cloves of garlic on her mother's chest out of grief?

When Lucy died, my suspicions were confirmed. There's no way that cloves of garlic would go unnoticed in her funereal bouquet. So they really mean garlic FLOWERS

Anyone who has gone foraging for wild garlic or deadheaded ornamental alliums will tell you that garlic flowers STINK. They are perhaps more pungent than the cloves themselves. They're also quite pretty, white or pink little starbursts of stinky, stinky garlic flowers

Basically, through the years we've transformed this image of a frail, beautiful woman surrounded by pure white flowers that drive away the evil that wants to eat her life force, her literal blood that would stain her perfect whiteness red, into this actually pretty silly concept of stink grenades and a room filled with more garlic cloves than a grocery store

and it cracks me the hell up

Props to Dracula for asking Johnathan how best to commit bank fraud, use pawns, and make shell corporations.  You know, casually.

Dracula: Hello yes, I am so whacky and foreign.  I do not understand your customs.  Please tell me *explains in great detail how to hide your activities from authorities*, is that legal where you come from? Johnathan: Technically yes, but why would you want to do such a thing?

Dracula: Haha, no reason.  Anyway, I got some paperwork for you to file.

Anyone else thinking Stoker's full intention was to present Dracula as this Eldritch abomination who is one with the darkness and storms and whose very presence could cause madness and chaos? Anyone else now annoyed that Dracula is watered down in modern adaptations?

#yeah the entirety of the demeter arc pretty much cemented Dracula as an Eldritch abomination before cosmic horror was cool #unfortunately most adaptations get rid of his shadow walking and moonbeam shifting and madness-inducing abilities #my man got nerfed #Dracula Daily #dracula bram stoker #dracula book #re: dracula

Day 20: Three Brides

Not sure if this theme was referring to Dracula, but it reminded me of the vampire "sisters" of the Castle
