I am ecstatic to announce that I hath finally finished chro​no​log​i​cal Dracula via a combination of Dracula Daily 2022 and the @re-dracula podcast of this year
Tumblr media
It was a pleasure and a true joy to read/listen to/experience the renowned vampire story in a way Bram Stoker never intended

Dracula September 2
“ Tell your friend that when that time you suck from my wound so swiftly the poison of the gangrene from that knife that our other friend, too nervous, let slip, you did more for him when he wants my aids and you call for them than all his great fortune could do.”
That sentence from Van Helsing struck me for two reasons: 1) It reminded me of when Quincey (the cowboy) wrote this to Arthur:
We've told yarns by the camp-fire in the prairies; and dressed one another's wounds after trying a landing at the Marquesas; and drunk healths on the shore of Titicaca.
So here we see already a connection with caring for each other’s wounds as a motif of friendship.
2) It also contrasts with the great antagonist: Count Dracula who first inflicts  wounds on them through which he can suck their lifeforce instead of poison. So in this novel in literal and less literal ways you have friends and lovers expressing their love for each other by taking care of the other’s distress and wounds and Dracula twisting that intimacy in a violence against their bodies and life. I think Stoker did contrast that to stress how important is to have healthy intimate bonds and what a horror it is to have its opposite: someone invading and preying upon you.

[text from Dracula: “…stronger, have yet more power to work evil. The vampire which is amongst us is of himself so strong in person as twenty men; he is of cunning more than mortal”. “Amongst Us” has been highlighted]

So I’m not part of Dracula Daily but I do get context from mutuals who do- what are your thoughts on the Queen dying not long after Van Helsing was introduced?
Friend, I want to thank you for this ask. It rendered me speechless.

i find it kinda cool that after being introduced to dracula daily as work to put the entirety of dracula into chronological order, the characters are now in the text putting all their experiences into chronological order. it feels fitting. i wonder if matt kirkland was inspired by this period of organization.
