#The Holmwood Foundation

[theholmwoodfoundation]

Releasing Episode 1.5 in March? Maybe some merch? Maybe a patreon?

It's more likely than you think!

I don't go here but happy October?

Francis Ford Coppola did not get 40 million dollars (yeah I know that's not actually that big of a budget, That's not the point) to insult every single one of these characters for the Holmwood Foundation to fall short of $29710. They are at 80%. They need under $6000. We did not bring them this far to fail. In comparison to Re: Dracula, which raised $28688, there are less than half as many people supporting this project. Re:Dracula was also fundraising at the height of the first Dracula Daily craze. The fact that we have reached 80% even with these disadvantages speaks volumes about how much we all believe in this project. We have to just reblog posts about the Holmwood Foundation like crazy and try to get them on the blogs of people who maybe were into Dracula Daily and just kind of lost touch. We only have to be annoying about this until Thursday morning, Eastern Standard Time. It's worth it. We have time.

Extremely late to the party, but look! Holmwood Foundation fanart!

In case you missed all the spam, this is about a cool little horror podcast project that's on its final couple days in which to raise funds for a full series, courtesy of @theholmwoodfoundation. They have episode 1 out as a teaser and it's extremely worth the listen if you're a Dracula fan who would like some media from people who actually read, understood, and enjoyed the book.

Their Kickstarter is here and they could really use a push in donations and general hype! It's got vampires and ghosts and supernatural archives and queer main characters and coerced camping trips on the moors, give or take some uninvited ghouls. Give them a listen and a hand if you can!

Hey, shout out to every podcast creator on this hellsite that regularly posts and interacts with the community. I have never been in a space where I can so easily interact with the people creating the content I love and it means the world to me when you not only interact with my posts but also show me the process in behind the scenes specials or just quick pictures on Tumblr. It feels so much more fulfilling that I'm not supporting some big corporation who doesn't pay their employees a liveable wage, but Paul down the street who had a dream and a microphone 💗💗💗

quick sketch of a scene for @theholmwoodfoundation pilot that our actor for Jeremy, Seán Carlsen, owned 100% with his voice work. It made us laugh on the day, it makes me laugh now. Poor, poor Jeremy.

Please go give us a listen, we have to be very very annoying about it for the next 30 days while we Kickstart the full season.

Malevolent, TMA, and Dracula Daily fans! Lend me your ears!

Are you looking for a new spooky horror podcast? Then might I recommend, The Holmwood Foundation?

Malevolent fans, do you like possession and co-dependency? How about traveling on a cross country road trip over the English countryside with a decayed magical possessed severed head? Do you like fighting the Horrors™️ with impractical weapons like a stolen camping stake? Then you’ll love Holmwood!

And Magnus Archive girlies, you like tape recorders and bureaucratic secretive organizations investigating supernatural artifacts and events, right? How about archivists actually doing an archiving job? We can only hope Then you too have lots to look forward to with the Holmwood Foundation! And don’t forget a healthy dose of queer representation to go with that 😉

For the Dracula Daily and Re:Dracula fans out there, this one is for you at heart! The story takes place 130 years after the events of Dracula with the main characters Madeline Townsend and Jeremy Larkin getting possessed by the spirits of Mina and Jonathan Harker after Dracula’s skull is uncovered in an archaeological dig and something dark and dangerous is released into the world trying to claw its way back. Follow Maddie and Jeremy under the guidance of Mina and Jonathan as they attempt to end the threat of Dracula coming back once and for all.

The Holmwood Foundation is currently being kickstarted with about 4 days left in their campaign as of writing this (10:30pm CST, November 9, 2024) and they are about 76.5% of the way towards their goal. I really want to see this podcast come to fruition and see where the story goes, so if you are interested, listen to the first episode that’s already out now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Acast, or anywhere you can listen to podcasts, and if you like it, consider donating to the campaign!

You can find the kickstarter here and the first episode for the podcast here!

The Holmwood’s original posts can be found linked here and here

And a list of the episode titles can be found here!

Just to clarify, I'm not being paid to promote this or anything, I just have an unhealthy obsession with Dracula content and a desire for More that I can't get if the story doesn't come out :(

But it's so good guys, I promise it's so good, please listen to it I love it so much 💕

[see-arcane]

Guys PLEASE consider throwing @theholmwoodfoundation some pocket change

They have barely more than a week left of their Kickstarter and only have a third of the funds raised. If you can't donate, please spread the word to fellow Dracula enthusiasts and folks out here looking for good inventive horror podcasts!

So my father sent me a trailer for the new Nosferatu, which actually looks well worth watching, only I can already tell it's going to center Mina's dark attraction to Dracula and sideline Jonathan... again. Still planning on watching it but man. My father chose violence and brother, that's why I sleep with a gun

Anyway. What this conversation really made me realize (I mean I already knew this but it made me re-remember it) is that we are such minority of the audience out there for Dracula films. Most people like and want to see a dark romance between Mina and Dracula with Jonathan cuckolded on the side. They look for it when engaging in Dracula media, even. And you know what? More power to them. We're not the Dracula media police. You can like fanon more than canon, if that's what people like, fine. But what it does mean for us is we are never going to get a big mainstream creative project made with the adaptation choices we find interesting. There's just no market for it in comparison to the Mina and Dracula audiences. I wish there was. I would love to sit in a movie theater and really enjoy a good filmed adaptation. But it's not going to happen. We have to do it ourselves, and we have to take care of our own. Last I checked the Holmwood Foundation was at 74.62% of their total goal. That's less than $8,000 to go, less than £6,000. I've updated my pledge and I think if you are financially able to, it's something you should consider doing too. They have 4 days. If we all just doubled the amount of our original pledge surely we could get them there. I just. It's a small thing but I need something to look forward to in 2025; I suspect we all do. No one else is going to get this done for us except us.

Hey guys if you haven’t heard of The Holmwood Foundation (@theholmwoodfoundation) it’s about time to check it out. They released a pilot episode and it’s great is if you love horrors and Dracula! Do consider supporting the guys on kickstarter since it’s less than a week to go!

Here is a meme as a summary of the episode + a bonus picture:
