“Seeing from his violent demeanor that he was English” is the most Irish thing Bram Stoker ever said.

i just reread the strange case of dr jekyll and mr hyde in its entirety in forty-five minutes and thirty-nine seconds instead of reading my book i have to read for school before the beginning of the first semester. i have no regrets…. for now.

i would totally get into cosplaying, but i have a bit of a personal problem: i wear glasses. it’s not like i can just take them off, i have very bad vision that isn’t even perfect with my glasses on (i have 20/25 vision in my left eye with glasses). there aren’t that many characters i can easily cosplay with this obstacle. either my face needs to be completely covered or the character already wears glasses. plus i mostly like period pieces/classics/fantasy media, making the glasses a bit out of place and i’d need those circular wired frame glasses. it’s just a nuisance. not to mention most of the cool and recognizable characters i know of don’t have glasses.

honestly, i love the frankenstein musical. one of the things i don’t love about it is the fact that the female creation actually comes to life. it makes more sense on why adam is angry, but it’s one of the few changes from the original text i was upset about.

The Frankenstein musical actually drives me mental, because so much of it is corny asf, but it’s JUST GOOD ENOUGH that I’m SO serious about the fact that with revisions, it could be really fucking good, I just don’t know what those revisions are and it makes me so mad 😭

Is this going to be my new obsession. “How to make the Frankenstein musical actually good”.

i love romeo and juliet because it’s just a play about two dramatic teenagers who fall in love and make stupid decisions. a fine comedy.

Why did no one tell me that Dracula was a fucking COMEDY.

The book opens up with Jonathan experiencing a paprika overload. Dracula pretends to be the coachman and drives Jonathan around in circles until he decides he's established enough of a dramatic atmosphere. By day three in the castle Jonathan has picked up that there are no servants and Dracula is secretly doing all the chores, including driving him there. The first time Jonathan tries to shave, the count barges into the room, yeets his mirror out the window, refuses to elaborate and leaves. Jonathan also notices that he is a prisoner in the castle but doesn't dare to bring it up, which... is a mood, but also hilarious. A week into his stay he sees his employer/kidnapper crawling facedown out a wall

There goes the count, scaling lizard style, out of the castle... AGAIN. Hes just showing off at this point

Mina thinks she's in a period drama. Jonathan is slowly but surely coming to terms with the fact that he's in a horror film

i’m so obsessed with the way he says “come on, come on!” it literally sounds like he’s up on the mausoleum giggling and kicking his feet

I never realised that Dracula was fucking with Jonathan Harker from the very second they met. The driving in circles to make it seem like Jonathan was so far away from everyone and everything? The wolves obv, but the way it's all so terrible and scary that Jonathan thinks he might have dreamed it all? "the dead travel fast" the woman in the coach said but Dracula made a point of reaching his destination as slowly as possible, while going fast.

Thank you @re-dracula , i read this novel twice before but only now am I really scared

TAG YOURSELF AS A MEMBER OF THE GENEVA SQUAD!

Parts of it are very cringe but parts of it - well, still cringe, but worth sharing I think
