Better known as the creator of Dracula, Siofra Mulqueen has been sinking her teeth into the story of Bram Stoker's business interests.

This '80s flick is to All Hallows' Eve what "A Christmas Story" is to Christmas: a true classic deserving a 24-hour marathon and a wild all-night celebration where blood takes the place of alcohol. Director Tom Holland's heartfelt homage to vampire movies breathed new life into a horror subgenre that was, sadly, starting to fade away, much like an undead creature of the night. It brought the vampire back into the spotlight, setting the stage for other nostalgic blood-sucking hits of the era, such as "The Lost Boys", "Near Dark", and "Bram Stoker's Dracula".So grab your binoculars, crucifix, and garlic necklace as Tim Williams and guest co-host Chris Evans discuss “Fright Night” from 1985 on this special Halloween episode of the 80s Flick Flashback podcast!Here are some additional behind-the-scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode:According to Chris Sarandon, he wanted Jerry to whistle "Whistle While You Work" rather than "Strangers in the Night" when first confronting Charley. But Disney would not give their permission to use the song.To evoke a genuine frightened reaction when Charley first sees Amy as a vampire, William Ragsdale did not see the stunt actress in makeup beforehand.Evil Ed's complex death scene, designed by Edlund and Bruno, strategically used darkness and quick cuts to obscure details. They intentionally reduced the lighting, relying on elements like a swinging chandelier that Wolf Ed crashes into. Visual effects cinematographer Bill Neil stated this swinging light was crucial, as the shifting shadows allowed them to hold shots longer, making the "brief glimpses" of the character highly effective.Sources:Wikipedia, IMDB, Box Office Mojohttps://www.dreadcentral.com/lists/261132/fearsome-facts-8-things-didnt-know-fright-night-1985/Some sections were composed by ChatGPTWe'd love to hear your thoughts on our podcast!

VYS0052 | Goddamn Shit-sucking Vampires - Halloween 2025: The Lost Boys - Vayse to Face with Sorcha Ní Fhlain - Show Notes "Sleep all day. Party all night. Never grow old. Never die." - Sounds exhausting. This is not how Hine and Buckley do Halloween anymore. So, instead of re-living their twenties, or the Lost Decade, as they call it, they talk to Dr Sorcha Ní Fhlainn about the greatest horror movie of the 1980s, or the Lost Boys, as they call it. Sorcha is a film critic, a writer, an academic - a Reader in Film Studies with a specialism in American Film at Manchester Metropolitan University specialising in Gothic Studies and Horror Cinema, with a particular focus on Vampires - and an all-round legend who helps Hine and Buckley get their teeth stuck deep into Joel Schumacher's 1987 masterpiece without getting lost in the gory details (but never over-looking the Corey details). The Lost Boys stands up well to scrutiny (well, mostly...kind of...) and Sorcha leads a discussion ranging from the transplanting of vampiric folklore from dark-ages Europe to MTV-era USA, the history of the vampire as a metaphor in literature and cinema, the way in which the Lost Boys and contemporary 1980s vampire movies, Near Dark and Fright Night contributed to queer horror, exactly what it is that makes the Lost Boys one of the greatest movies of all time... and what's the deal with the greased up, pumped up, beach-party thrusting sax-player and why is it that he's brilliant?

Vampire folklore is ancient, but with the publishing of Bram Stoker's Dracula in 1897, that lore changed forever. The terrifying, grotesque creature became suave and charming, then continued to evolve into the seductive creature of the night we know today. In this episode we examine that transition, as well as the origin and evolution of Dracula's vampiric powers.

"Dracula" is a Romanian satirical comedy-drama film written and directed by Radu Jude. The film title is inspired by the Gothic horror novel by Irish author Bram Stoker, "Dracula." Set in contemporary Transylvania, it explores the legend of Dracula through Romanian lenses while examining modern dystopia through the timeless allure of vampire lore, crafting a biting, gleefully profane takedown of AI, capitalism, and our decaying culture. The film had its world premiere in the main competition of the 78th Locarno Film Festival, where it received polarizing reviews. It's par the course for Jude, but he still has his own opinions on how audiences are receiving his 170-minute bonkers film. Jude was kind enough to spend some time speaking with us about his experience working on the film, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which will be released in theaters on October 29th by 1-2 Special. Thank you, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...

Dracula — the immortal vampire, cloaked in darkness, sleeping in coffins, and thirsting for blood. But what if behind the legend of Count Dracula lies a man even more terrifying than the myth?In this episode, we travel back to 15th-century Eastern Europe to uncover the truth behind the name that inspired Bram Stoker's iconic vampire. Meet Vlad III, also known as Vlad the Impaler and Dracula, a Wallachian prince born into a world of political betrayal, shifting alliances, and brutal warfare. Sent as a hostage to the Ottoman Empire as a child, Vlad would emerge with a hardened soul and a ruthless sense of justice. His rise to power was swift and merciless. He impaled thousands, enslaved the nobility, and even defied the Ottoman Sultan with horrific displays of cruelty meant to terrify entire armies.We explore how this real-life figure, whose cruelty knew no bounds, became the inspiration for one of fiction's most enduring villains. Centuries after Vlad's death, his story was resurrected by Bram Stoker, who stumbled across the name “Dracula” and used it to create a character that would haunt books, films, and nightmares for generations. But just how much of the bloodsucking Count matches the real voivode who once ruled Wallachia?You'll learn about Vlad's notorious acts — from forests of impaled enemies to his defiant night attacks against the Ottoman Empire — and discover how these historical accounts morphed into the chilling features of the fictional Dracula: the aristocratic bearing, the Transylvanian castle, and the eerie connection to blood and death. We'll also trace how Dracula evolved on stage and screen, transforming from warlord to vampire king, horror icon, and pop culture legend.So—was Dracula real, or merely a monster of fiction? This episode pulls back the cloak to reveal the twisted truth at the heart of a legend.www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcast

The At The Flicks team proudly present for your Halloween entertainment, a show six years in the making.  In fact, it's so big we have split the story over two podcasts. We are talking Dracula. Not just any story about Dracula, the story behind the famous Universal release in 1931. Here in part one we investigate what happened between the book's publication in 1897 and the film going into production just over 30 years later.  In part two, coming tomorrow we look at the making of the film – both the English and Spanish language versions.  This will of course Jeff's unique review of both movies (as strange and unusual as you have come to expect). Getting into the weeds of this story took a lot of time to verify the facts – especially the events leading up to the film going into production. That's why it took 6 years to script and record (also being old we occasionally forgot what we were making, and there was sleep, much of it).  As a tease, in this part, we will reveal to you: - The famous event that over shadowed Bram Stoker's death - When Universal studios were first lobbied to make a big budget version of Dracula  - How the makers of Nosferatu revealed a detail they shouldn't have at the German premiere (and as a result were successfully sued by Stoker's widow Florence) - The facts behind the creation of the stage play (which went on to be more inspirational on the film version than the novel) - Who first played Dracula on stage  - How the Universal film actually saved Nosferatu for future generations  - Who was originally considered to be the best actor to bring the character of Dracula to life (clue – it wasn't Bela Lugosi) And much, much more…. This was a great deal of fun to put together – the research proved to be very revealing. To all those who helped with the facts, both directly and indirectly, thank you very much. We hope you enjoy this labour of love from the At The Flicks team and look forward to your thoughts on both this episode and part two which follows tomorrow. Bye for now.

“De wind huilde door de bergpassen, en de zwarte dennen wrongen zich alsof ze in pijn verkeerden.”Met zulke zinnen voert Bram Stoker zijn lezers het duistere Transsylvanië binnen. Maar achter de vampier die hij schiep, schuilt een echte man: Vlad Dracula Tepes. De vorst die zijn vijanden spietste en een mythe werd die al vijf eeuwen standhoudt. Gijs is nog steeds doodsbang voor Dracula, maar zet toch zijn angsten opzij om het verhaal te vertellen over de man die in de bergen van Wallachije angst zaaide als geen ander. In deze aflevering duiken Gijs en Thomas in de mistige grens tussen feit en legende. Van de echte Vlad de Spietser tot de Victoriaanse fascinatie voor vampiers, van Lord Byron's duisternis tot knoflook aan de deurpost. Wat maakt Dracula tot het ultieme monster, en waarom blijft hij ons al meer dan vijf eeuwen achtervolgen? Even Independeren en het is in 3 minuten geregeld.

GGACP celebrates Halloween week by revisiting this conversation from 2021 as Gilbert and Frank celebrate the 90th anniversaries (1931-2021) of Universal Studios' original “Dracula” and “Frankenstein” with Oscar-winning makeup creator Rick Baker and late author-historian David J. Skal. In this episode, Rick and David talk about sympathetic monsters, mad scientists (real and imagined), the genius of Jack Pierce and the premature deaths of Colin Clive, Dwight Frye and Lon Chaney. Also, David interviews Carla Laemmle, Rick turns Martin Landau into Bela Lugosi, Glenn Strange appears in Boris Karloff's obit and Bram Stoker's widow tries to kill off “Nosferatu.” PLUS: Ghoulardi! “Man of a Thousand Faces”! The influence of Forrest J. Ackerman! Bette Davis (almost) plays the Bride of Frankenstein! And the boys (once again) try to make sense of “The Black Cat”! Learn more about your ad choices.

He mostly creates stories of horror and suspense and has a tendency to shy away from happy endings.When not writing, Mike enjoys fronting a rock and roll cover band, playing guitar, dabbling in fine art and graphic design so he doesn't feel like he completely wasted all that time in college, and exploring the hidden gems and cultural offerings of Detroit; a city that still surprises him and that he is proud to call home.Michael has gathered a number of his published works into the 5-star reviewed collection Some Days Suck, Some Days Suck Worse, which has received accolades from the likes of Bram Stoker award winner Weston Oches, and bestselling author Jay Wilburn.The first two books in Mike's horror/intrigue/zombie apocalypse mash up series, Angel of Death and Fallen Angel, are available now. Both books have received excellent ratings and reviews. The next two books in the series are “in development.”American Ghost Stories: True Tales from All 50 States, is out now and available wherever books are sold. His mom says, “It's great!” and that you should buy it (and all his other books) and make him famous. Mike's mom is pretty cool.Mike's newest book, Bigfoot Sightings: True Encounters from Across America, co-authored with the amazing Jim Willis, will be out in August. His mom says this one is great, too. You probably will, as well.

In this chilling Creepy Budeez episode, Brian, Bean, and Gary sink their fangs into the true story behind Vlad the Impaler — the brutal 15th-century ruler whose dark legend inspired Bram Stoker's Dracula. Together with special guest Jezus the Jeweler, the Budeez dig into the real history, myths, and misconceptions surrounding the blood-soaked prince of Wallachia — comparing the man, the monster, and the myth.

We all crave a good meal. The challenge is savoring it once it's placed before you. Kelley Jones and Matt Wagner have wickedly, and delightfully, discovered a way to make Bram Stoker's Dracula not one good dish, but three...and possibly four and five. For the last several years, they've transformed the classic vampire novel into a feast impossible to gobble down in one sitting. By taking throwaway sentences in the book and building two graphic novels out of them (Dracula Book I: The Impaler, Dracula Book II: The Brides), they've miraculously extended their love affair with Vlad, and ours in the process as well. Now, with Dracula Book III: The Count, which only has a week left on Kickstarter, Jones and Kelley properly excavate Bram Stoker's book. This third entry tackles the iconic plot, but only from Count Dracula's perspective. We all know this story from Jonathan Harker, Mina, and Van Helsing's point of view, but how did the vicious beast at the center of their fear experience the whole endeavor? No more letters. Only the Count's singular, hungry howl of self. We've read and watched many Dracula adaptations, but none as exhaustive and creative as this. As a result, this week's podcast had to match Jones and Wagner's studious passion. All together, we dig deep into their previous entry, Dracula Book II: The Brides. We discuss how, in chaining themselves to Dracula's perspective, they create unparalleled empathy for the monster and his godless pursuits. Is there danger in that? Again, Dracula: The Count only has seven days left on its Kickstarter campaign. Please visit the crowdfunding project by clicking HERE. You can continue the conversation with Kelley Jones by visiting his Instagram. You can follow Matt Wagner on Blue Sky and Instagram.

In honor of the spooky season, we present two monstrous origin stories --Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and Bram Stoker's Dracula. We know when these books were written in the 19th century. But what inspired the imaginations of the rebellious teenager Mary Shelley, or the beleaguered theatrical promoter Bram Stoker? I talk with biographer Charlotte Gordon and Professors Gillen D'Arcy Wood and Ron Broglio about how “The Year Without a Summer” may have sparked storms in Mary Shelley's mind. And I talk with UC Davis professor Louis Warren about why he believes an American entertainer was the unlikely model for Count Dracula. Featuring readings by Lily Dorment and John Keating.

This week, we dive headfirst into the visual and stylistic feast that is Francis Ford Coppola's "Bram Stoker's Dracula" (1992).The ambition is undeniable—Coppola wanted to make a definitive, hyper-gothic, technically ingenious vision of the classic novel. And yet, for all its spectacular in-camera effects, Oscar-winning costumes by Eiko Ishioka, and Gary Oldman's powerhouse performance, the hosts find themselves a little lost in the crimson mist.Lemar and Mackenzie agree that this film, despite its good parts (and they are gorgeous parts), is simply trying to do too much. We discuss the overstuffed plot, which attempts to be a sweeping historical tragedy, a lurid gothic horror, an erotic thriller, and a faithful period piece all at once. We praise Oldman's captivating Count, the lush, jaw-dropping visual artistry, and the sheer audacity of the production. But we can't ignore the narrative confusions, the wildly uneven supporting performances (poor Keanu), and the overall feeling of maximalism that leaves the story feeling dispersed rather than cohesive.Tune in as we try to see the good in this operatic monster movie, ultimately concluding that sometimes, even a masterpiece can be too much of a good thing.This episode VIDEO is live on YouTube AND Spotify!Follow us on Instagram and TikTok to get ep sneak peaks and find out what's coming next.

Our hosts are back on The Literary Life podcast today to continue our series on Bram Stoker's Dracula. This week we are covering chapters 12-17, and in the introduction to this episode, Angelina, Cindy and Thomas discuss the purpose of the Gothic novel in reorienting us to realize there is more to the world than the physical and empirical. As they cover the plot in these chapters, other ideas shared are the effective blending of modern technology with ancient wisdom in fighting evil, the many mythological and fairy tale elements in this story, the contrast between the true woman and the false woman, the parallels to Paradise Lost, and so much more. Be sure to check out all that is happening at The House of Humane Letters and Morning Time for Moms in this season so you don't miss out on all their current offerings!

We talk about our week ! Than we break down the famous Dracula! Bram Stoker and pop culture.

Welcome back to The Literary Life podcast today and our series on Bram Stoker's Dracula. This week Angelina Stanford, Cindy Rollins, and Thomas Banks cover chapters 8-11 of the book. Angelina explains both the “New Woman” and “Angel in the House” ideas of the Victorian era and makes some observations about Dr. Seward's interactions with Renfield in contrast to the nuns ministrations to Jonathan Harker. We are also introduced to Dr. Van Helsing in this section of the book as the foil for Dracula, and we quickly learn that he is more than just a medical man. Our hosts discuss Stoker's own medical knowledge and both the historical and metaphorical context of the blood transfusion procedures in these chapters.

In this film, Count Dracula purchases property in Harker's village and moves from Transylvania to Wismar, spreading the Black Plague across the land. Only Harker's fiance, Lucy, a woman who is pure of heart, can bring an end to his reign of horror.

today i will be talking about the universal monster movie dracula from 1931 , which starred bela lugosi in a role that would define how we think of count dracula 

On The Literary Life Podcast this week, our hosts continue with part 2 of their series on Bram Stoker's Dracula. After sharing their commonplace quotes, Angelina, Cindy and Thomas begin discussing how to properly read Dracula and other books written in this tradition.
