#Dracula in Space
Text
Having finally watched Treasure Planet all the way through for the first time, I vote that we take more classic stories and just fucken set them in space with starships that are actual ships but space cause that aesthetic is killer.
 - King Arthur the Space Opera where all the Knights of the Round Table are various aliens and have non-copyrighted Lightsabers.
 - 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea but Captain Nemo captains a hyper-advanced stealth ship, endlessly exploring the stars.
 - The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn but he and Jim travel the galaxy in a rickety old jury-rigged escape pod.
 - Dracula in Space
Thoughts? Any ideas of your own?

Okay, but hear me out. It's a Deep Space Nine episode, first or second season; a scheduled freighter warps into the Bajoran System, but it's moving erratically; Sisko sends out some runabouts to catch it and tow it in, but when they do, they find that everyone is dead, exsanguinated, except for a single feral black dog, who runs out the airlock and disappears on the Promenade. Amongst its cargo are 12 crates of Earth soil, registry unknown. Odo investigates the murders and determines, with some understandable excitement, that they could only possibly have been committed by a fellow shape-shifter. Meanwhile, a dark, sinister stranger turns up at Quark's, looking for discrete passage to Bajor; Earth has become too civilized for him to easily ply his trade and he's hoping that he might more easily find...opportunities...on a war-torn planet...

As we are drawing to a close, I just want to say: Thank you, Giancarlo Herrera. Your performance as Quincey made me laugh and cry in equal measure over the course of this podcast, and you absolutely killed it every time, especially today. Take a bow!

In which Jonathan and Mina learn that Dracula is just where the supernatural perils start...
Another commission piece! This one was a request to draw up something for one of my miscellaneous Harker Horror WIPs other than The Vampyres. I landed on The Harker Records, featuring what would be the dramatic opening shot of the award-winning first season that would still be strangled to death before season 2 for a tax write-off <3 In the meantime, feel free to check out my Ko-Fi if you want a picture of your own or to drop a dollar in the jar.
And if you have a minute, see if you can spy all the classic horror literary references lurking on the table and in the dark 👁️

It's interesting how Jonathan keeps equating himself with women, first with the gothic heroines of books, now "sitting at a little oak table where in old times possibly some fair lady sat to pen, with much thought and many blushes, her ill-spelt love-letter" and feeling the first bit of comfort in a while in what he identifies as a woman's room. I know tumblr keeps identifying Jonathan as the book's Damsel in Distress, but it's interesting that Jonathan is consciously identifying himself that way, rather than identifying with any number of the action heroes in books of the time.
I wonder what men in 1897 thought about it, and I wonder if it was a conscious decision on Bram Stoker's part

Jonathan expressed comfort at the thought of being in a space in which women of old lived their "sweet lives" whose hearts beat lovesick in their "gentle" chests, and he desired to rest in there, as a sanctuary from the presence of the Master of the castle (only to be ''wakened'' in a monstrous version of that safe space).
Now in Budapest, he is healing in a space inhabited also by women, and surrounded by them. Ones who commend his "sweetness" and "gentleness".

There is so much empty margin space in the Dracula Daily book. I basically HAVE to treat this as a scrapbooking project to paste in key/favorite posts that didn't make the marginalia cut. >:}
