"In a new world of gods and monsters well known, A new take on their story is shown. It's a place where there's beauty inside the beasts, And the tragedy in their villainy's released." | Independent Multi-Muse Roleplay and Ask blog for Universal's Classic Monsters, the Heroes they faced, and some other similar characters | Under Construction | Tracking Tag: #UniversallyMonstrous | Icon made by Angel
Fact: The earliest reliably dated use of the phrase “fucked up” appears in the court records of a US Navy court-martial case from 1863; the way the phrase is used suggests that its meaning was already well known at the time, but this is the first known printed record of it that we can confidently put a date to.
Additional fact: Bram Stoker’s Dracula is set in 1897.
Conclusion: It would not anachronistic for your Dracula fanfic to have a character describe the Count as a fucked up old man.
"Well, damn, guess I'm never leavin', then. What a tragedy," he said, sounding absolutely as if he did not believe this to be a tragedy as he laid back down in the bed with them after some pulling. He touched their cheek and pulled them in for a gentle kiss as he held them close. "It's alright, we can rest a while longer if you need it, love."

“I’m never going to let you go,” they grumbled, finally getting a hold of him. Anna had finally fallen asleep for the first time in days and they weren’t going to let the cozy calm be ruined by something as trivial as getting out of bed in the morning.
“Noooo, come baaack.” Arms wrap around Quincey and try to pull him back into bed. “Five more minutes.”
"Well, it seems I ain't got a choice," he said, despite the attempts doing very little to actually pull him back. "Guess I'm just gonna have to stay here until you let me go. I'm helpless to your pull, darlin'." And yet he still was not laying down. He was sitting on the bed, however.
You guys I just realized that what I’ve always wanted out of werewolf fiction is a story where lycanthropy isn’t a purely human condition
Like this dude wakes up from his wolfbender and his room is full of all these fucking chickens from local farms that he initiated into his pack. They all start clucking and crowing at the moon and when it’s full they all transform into these tiny little weird bipedal wolves with wings.
I love Larry T., a canonically queer broody character connected to a Universal Monster who has supernatural powers from something he can't control that has resulted in him brutally killing many people, from a TV show with a ragtag group of supernatural misfits put together by a character played by Timothy Dalton who has a dysfunctional father-figure type relationship with the group.
Opera Garnier where Phantom is based off of in Gaston Leroux's book. The chandelier did fall in the late 1800’s. Other accounts state it was one of the counter weights and not the chandelier. There’s many variations of Erik’s origin but Christine was based off a Swedish singer of the same 1st name.
