Dracula

by Bram Stoker

genre: horror, Gothic, classic, vampire

Have you been meaning to get around to this dark classic? I finally did!

Review

Before you continue to read my review, I probably should state that I don’t really enjoy books of epistolary nature (told through letters and diaries) and I also don’t like the writing style of classic novels. I am someone who enjoys a gripping story and fast-paced, powerful writing. I loved the story of Frankenstein, but the writing annoyed me to no end. The writing in Dracula also annoyed me but thankfully it did have a great plot. A “true” vampire novel to say the least.

My first substantial introduction into the Dracula story was with the movie ‘Van Helsing’ when I watched it many years ago (I was 12 or so), I thought it was the best movie ever. Only now, after reading the original novel, do I realise how silly and inaccurate the movie was. For one: Van Helsing should definitely have not been played by the rugged, attractive Australian actor, Hugh Jackman, considering the fact that the Dutch character was old, overweight, and balding (if memory serves me right). For two, where the heck is the rest of the team and why are there werewolves involved? Either way! I loved the dark themes of that movie and fell in love with Dracula and his flock of voluptuous, blood-thirsty vampire ladies. The corrupt, evil, alluring vampires were one of my first, if not first, love of the supernatural. I can’t stand romantic vampire novels (I’m not judging!) because I love it so much better when they are truly, and inherently, evil (cue thunderstorm strike and manic laughter). Only now, 8 years later, did I decide to read the book. So, here it goes!

Reblogged on Ermisenda's tumblr.

I can’t write very well with pen and paper. I can write very well on the laptop because my fingers can catch up with my thoughts and I can easily delete, shift content and edit what I just wrote. Although I recognise I write much better on the laptop every now and again I will buy a beautiful looking notepad and vow to write within it. I rarely do write in it, if I do it has nothing to do with stories because that requires too much editing, which is brutal with pen and paper.

Ideally I would be writing with a quill with one that looks as beautiful, Gothic and elegant as the picture (I should buy it for myself as a birthday present…*conjures plan to surprise myself*) but unfortunately, I do not.
