Dracula is an 1897 epistolary novel by Irish author Bram Stoker, featuring as its primary antagonist the vampire Count Dracula. It was first published as a hardcover in 1897 by Archibald Constable and Co.

Although Stoker did not invent the vampire, the novel's influence on the popularity of vampires has been singularly responsible for many theatrical, film and television interpretations since its publication.

What's your favourite Dracula film that isn't an adaption of the original book?

It can be inspired by the book but it can't be a straight up adaption of it, so no Bram Stoker's Dracula for example. Out of the rest, what's your favourite Dracula film?

Also, it can be either live-action or animated. Anime is also included if it is still a movie. Though OVA are also allowed.

For example, my favourite movie would be... Scars of Dracula from Hammer Productions.

What's the Best Alternate Dracula Adaptation in Recent Memory?

The vampire is a truly timeless monster and we all love seeing it brought to the screen again and again (I assume you do anyways if you're in this sub haha). From the old Bella Legolosi vampire to the Brad Pitt. What's your favorite or what is the best alternate Dracula take (NOT WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS)?

Ideally any adaptation with a character named Dracula. I'm trying to see them all.

First edition of Dracula

My lovely 1897 first edition. This copy was once owned by the author Graham Greene. Too fragile to read. Sitting next to The Hobbit 1937 first edition (in plastic protection).

Dracula puzzle gift

I am planning to make a puzzle type gift for my sister for Christmas and would love some ideas. My plan is to make it like a hidden journal of Jonathan’s that will contain clues to help her unlock a few boxes, with some gifts inside each box and additional clues. My sister’s favorite part of the book is when Jonathan is in the castle in the beginning, so I would like the ideas to stay around that time. Any help would be appreciated, she’s a huge fan so any little details that I can add in would be perfect!

Sam Elliott as *Count Dracula*?

While his rugged charm and deep voice are iconic, Dracula’s character in the novel is more aristocratic and foreign, with a subtle, menacing elegance. Elliott might not capture the mysterious, old-world vibe Bram Stoker intended. But hey, it would certainly be a unique take! Prove me wrong!

You’ve never truly read Dracula unless you’ve read the original, unaltered text by Stoker. Here’s an uber nice REPRO, in softcover. A truly awesome reading experience. https://shorturl.at/rFeIL

Dracula the Musical (Frank Wildhorn)

Greetings everyone! I haven't seen much discussion of any of this stage adaptations on here, and I wanted to get some thoughts/shamelessly self-promote.

I'm currently working on the musical version by Frank Wildhorn in St Louis, and it's kind of been absolute dream of a production. But the general consensus among cast and audience is that the show kind of glosses over the story. The scores amazing, but the script does not translate the story well. If you don't already know the lore of Dracula, you can very easily get lost and not understand what's going on. Music great, but I've had multiple people telling me they got a little lost trying to watch it. Curious what other people think about the Frank Wildhorn musical.

Also, if anyone is in the Missouri / St Louis/midwest area, we run for three more performances this coming Thursday through Saturday.

What's your favourite version of Dracula from media that adapts the original novel?

What I mean by that question is that from all of the adaptions of Bram Stoker's Dracula novel, what's your favourite version of the titular vampire?

I will make this clear, it has to be an adaption of the book that your favourite Dracula comes from. Not just adaptions of the character with no connection to the book, e.g. Marvel's or Castlevania's Dracula.

I will give my answer if that will help, my favourite would be Hammer's Dracula.
