This was really good, I hate the idea of sequels to Dracula by Bram Stoker (they've all sucked so far) but this... this was really good, I genuinely enjoyed the homage paid to Jonathan Harker. Him and Mina are my favourite characters from the og novel (I do love their romance) and appreciate that you painted Jonathan in a positive light.

Thank you so much. You’re definitely correct that sequels don’t typically improve on the original, and I did my best to pay homage to Stoker’s work.

I'm glad yours though is so respectful towards it, dunno why others always do stupid things like push Dracula forward as the 'true hero' or a thing between him and Mina.

Agree. I’m not a fan of the 1992 movie for exactly that reason.

Funny that's the one I hate the most for that.

Reads like the first 10 minutes of a Nolan film, with a single violin playing for suspense.
