If this gets 100 notes, I’m watching BBC’s 2020 version of Dracula and live-blogging it. Why? Because I keep getting told to watch it for its trainwreck quality and the ONLY way I will watch it is if I make y’all experience it alongside me.

I actually love Re: Dracula, because like,, it’s just so darn accessible???

Aside from the genuine care and time that the creators put into it, and the details and awesome sound effects, and it brings life to the novel in an awesome way.

Don’t get me wrong, I adore Dracula Daily, but I just don’t have the time at the moment to sit down and read it, where as with Re: Dracula, I can do my work and listen to it, I can play it as background noise to sleep too, I can do art with it. It’s easy for me to get to as well, so I can quickly get it on whiteout wasting too much time.

And did I mention the effort the team working on it puts in to it??

Was that Dracula howling under Jonathan's window even from day one? Was it not even the paprika that gave him queer dreams...

You would think that as "guy who runs the gay vampire blog" Astarion would be my favorite character in bg3 . It's not it's actually Karlach and I would sell that gay white twink assstarion to Satan for one cornchip and the fraction of a chance of a future of Larian adding more Wyll content

Bram Stoker while writing Dracula: Fuck it. I'm going to put a gun toting cowboy from Texas into my gothic horror novel set in England because why fucking not?

In my most recent reading of Dracula, I came to the conclusion that Quincy P. Morris, the cowboy vampire slayer, was tragically underused.

Naturally, this spawned fanfiction. Quincy P. Morris: Vampire Hunter.

After defeating Dracula, Quincy P. Morris returns to the states, shaken by his experience. But he finds the best way to face his fears is with a six-gun and a bottle of whisky.

I think that adaptations who leave Quincey out or make him a horrible person (see 2020 Dracula) miss the point. He's not just a comic relief. he's the oathmaker. He swears to Lucy when she rejects him he'll always be her friend, and he follows through. He swears to Mina he'll not rest until SHE rests, and he follows through. He swears he will kill Dracula to Jonathan, and they shake hands, and he follows through. He gives Dracula one of the two fatal bows, and bleeds and dies, like he swore he would, for those he loves.

Wow, Anon. That was beautiful. You came to my inbox, absolutely destroyed me, and I'm thanking you for it. /pos

You're so right, though. He is the oathmaker, he follows through on his promises no matter what. Also, the Oathmaker is such a cool title is that a thing I missed?? Can that be what we call him forever now if we don't already??

But here I am, doing the exact same thing as the producers/directors, writing him off as comic relief (I did a little more than that, but still)!! I am truly sorry to Quincey, he is not just that and he never was. So thank you, Anon, for reminding me again why I love him so much. Perhaps one day, there will be an adaptation where he's actually appreciated.

As a side note, they made him a horrible person in 2020 Dracula?! Ugh, I started watching it and could not get through it after they killed Jonathan off -- I didn't care if they resurrected him or what, I was done. I just couldn't keep watching Now I don't want to do it even more if they ruined Quincey too!!!! BBC stop trying to be edgy with classic literature challenge (impossible). What are they going to do next? Make a Jane Eyre series where Jane's the wife in the attic the whole time? I shouldn't even write that cause they'll probably think "wow, that's a great idea!" :/

Happy Weird Paprika Dreams day to all who celebrate!
