Podcasts about Bram Stoker

A German occultist stole Bram Stoker's Dracula to make a film about pandemic fears, Stoker's widow ordered every copy burned, and yet Nosferatu survived to become the most influential vampire movie ever made.IN THIS EPISODE: The 1922 horror classic "Nosferatu" still turns up, on TV and on college campuses every Halloween. And it'll likely show up again somewhere this year as well. In this episode we'll look at how Nosferatu isterrifyingly relevant even still today, the controversial making of the film – and the lawsuit by Bram Stoker's wife, how the director of the film was involved in the occult… and how you would not have wanted to miss the film's premiere which was an unforgettable, epic event all by itself. That and a whole lot more about 1922's Nosferatu, on this episode of Weird Darkness. CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = The Strange Newspaper Ad That Launched Horror's Greatest Vampire Film00:01:04.589 = Show Open00:02:33.736 = Nosferatu Wasn't About Vampires — It Was About a Pandemic00:10:05.520 = *** Nosferatu: The Film That Was Ordered Destroyed — And Survived00:26:48.293 = *** Nosferatu: Facts, Secrets, and Spongebob Squarepants00:34:11.409 = Show Close*** = Begins immediately after inserted ad breakSOURCES and RESOURCES – and/or --- PRINT VERSION to READ or SHARE:“The Message Nosferatu Has For Us Today” by Jim Beckerman for NorthJersey.com:https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/4h966w3w“The True Story Behind Nosferatu” by Sam Markus for Grunge.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/zupyynu7“Other Nosferatu Facts” by Mark Mancini for Mental Floss: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/zueums9f, and William Burns for Horror News Network: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/r6xbudh4=====(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

Sixteen years after the previous film (The Godfather Part II) in this saga won him Oscars for Best Director, Best Screenplay, and Best Picture...Oscar-winning legend Francis Ford Coppola (Apocolypse Now, Bram Stoker's Dracula, The Conversation) returned to both co-write and direct this final entry in the beloved sage of The Corleone Family.  And this time around even though the film was nominated for seven Oscars including Best Picture, it didn't win any.....and the consensus was that it was below the quality for the first two despite including acclaimed performances by its three main stars including Al Pacino (who returned to play Michael Corleone), the late, great Diane Keaton (who returned to play Kay Corleone), and Oscar-nominated Andy Garcia who played Michael's nephew Vincent.  Infact, it was considered by many to be by far the weakest film in the trilogy.  So thirty years later during an extended COVID lock-down, Coppola decided re-edit Part III and by the end of 2020, a newly reworked version was released to both theaters and streaming.  Celebrating The Godfather Part III's 35th Anniversary, we will review this latest version to find out how or IF it improves upon the original version released on Christmas of 1990.   Host: Geoff GershonEdited By Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a textSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

« C'était au mois de mai 1877. Les Russes fondaient comme des sauterelles sur ce magnifique pays de Roumanie qui leur était livré en proie » Ainsi commence un roman intitulé « Le Capitaine vampire ». Son intrigue nous emmène donc en Roumanie durant la guerre russo-turque, elle suit l'affrontement acharné entre un soldat roumain et un officier russe, le cruel prince Boris Liatoukine : un homme à la force démesurée et à la réputation démoniaque. On le dit invincible d'ailleurs et insensible aux balles et à la douleur, laissant derrière lui des champs de ruines et des milliers de cadavres. On murmure qu'il se nourrit du sang des morts ? « Le Capitaine vampire » est publié, en 1879, à Paris. Son autrice est âgée d'une vingtaine d'années, elle est belge et elle s'appelle Marie Nizet. Elle est très engagée politiquement et a côtoyé de nombreux étudiants venus des pays slaves et balkaniques. Elle a déjà publié des poèmes dans lesquels elle défend la Roumanie opprimée par l'empire russe. Après sa mort, en 1922, Marie Nizet, avec son œuvre, sombre dans l'oubli. Jusqu'au jour où un historien français d'origine roumaine décèle dans « Le Capitaine vampire », une influence majeure du fameux « Dracula » de Bram Stoker, paru dix-huit ans plus tard. Une Belge à l'origine de Dracula : nous allons bien voir. Avec nous : Laurent Therer, de la Bibliothèque royale de Belgique, qui signe la postface de la première édition belge du « Capitaine Vampire » de Marie Nizet chez Espace Nord.

¡Hola Mundo de Espantos![TEXTO PENDIENTE DE EDICIÓN]

El nuevo programa ya está listo. Hoy hablamos de Wicked en su segunda entrega, el remake de Perseguido (The Running Man), una nueva versión del Drácula de Bram Stoker dirigido por Luc Besson y la estupenda serie Anatomía de un instante, sobre el intento de golpe de estado de Tejero en 1981.

Lair of the White Worm (1988) is picked by Dave this week, and it's one of those wonderfully unhinged British horror films that could only have come out of the'80s. Written and directed by Ken Russell, the movie was loosely based on Bram Stoker's 1911 novel of the same name - though in true Russell fashion, it quickly veered far from the source material and into surreal, erotic, and darkly comic territory. Produced by Vestron Pictures, the same studio behind Dirty Dancing and Return of the Living Dead, the film was made on a modest budget of around $2 million. Despite its low cost, Russell filled it with his signature visual flamboyance, blending Gothic horror, mythological imagery, and satirical British eccentricity into something uniquely chaotic.Filming took place in Derbyshire, England, using local countryside locations to give the film its haunting yet distinctly English atmosphere. The cast included a mix of rising and established talent - notably a young Hugh Grant, years before his rom-com fame, and Peter Capaldi, long before becoming Doctor Who. The movie was shot in just six weeks, with Russell working fast and loose, improvising many of the more bizarre scenes on set. Upon release, it divided critics: some praised its camp energy and gleeful weirdness, while others dismissed it as absurd. Over the years, though, Lair of the White Worm has achieved cult status - celebrated for its blend of folk horror, sensuality, and sheer outrageousness that only Ken Russell could deliver.If you enjoy the show, we have a Patreon, so become a supporter ⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠.Referral links also help out the show if you were going to sign up:⁠⁠⁠NordVPN⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠NordPass⁠⁠⁠Trailer Guy Plot SummaryIn the quiet English countryside, something ancient… something hungry… has awakened.When a strange discovery uncovers a dark legend, a group of unsuspecting locals is pulled into a world of hypnotic seduction, slithering evil, and serpentine terror. As ancient forces rise and modern reason crumbles, the line between myth and nightmare disappears - and no one is safe from the creature that has waited centuries to strike.Lair of the White Worm — brace yourself… this is one bite you won't walk away from.Fun FactsLair of the White Worm was one of Vestron Pictures' final horror productions before the company collapsed in the late 1980s.The film is very loosely based on Bram Stoker's novel of the same name — many critics note that only names and the central “worm” concept survive Ken Russell's adaptation.Amanda Donohoe, who plays the seductive Lady Sylvia Marsh, won the role after Russell saw her on stage in London and loved her bold, fearless screen presence.The movie contains several surreal hallucination sequences inspired by Ken Russell's own Catholic school upbringing, which he frequently mocked in his work.Hugh Grant has said that working with Russell early in his career taught him to embrace creative risks, even when the material was utterly bizarre.The white worm effects were achieved using hand-built animatronics and puppetry, combined with old-school editing tricks to hide limited movement.Costume designer Vicki Carroll created Lady Sylvia's iconic snake-themed outfits, including her famous white body paint and fanged headpiece.The film's soundtrack includes original music composed by Stanley Myers, who is also known for scoring The Deer Hunter.The movie was released unrated in the United States because the producers felt an MPAA rating would be impossible without severe cuts.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thevhsstrikesback@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

I took the opportunity during my third time at Sitges Film Festival to chat with some fine people who came to this gargantuan annual celebration of horror. You'll hear from film professor Alison Peirse and film journalist Daniela Urzola who were on Sitges juries (different juries, there are quite a few at this fest), genre filmmakers Arianne Hinz and Avalon Fast as well as film programmers Sabina Pujol and Sara Neidorf, who is also the co-director of Final Girls Berlin with me.

“Written from the point of view of one character and then another scene from the another character. Now, we would never shift point of view within a scene, but each scene, each segment of the book is from a different point of view.” - Lawrence ConnollyIn this How To Write the Future episode, “Building Character-Driven Action Adventure Stories with Lawrence Connolly,” podcast host Beth Barany interviews author Lawrence Connolly, where they explore his upcoming exciting projects, including a feature film with his brother and his new novel. They also dive into using deep POV to create characters that are emotionally compelling to draw a reader into the author's world and share advice for writers working on film adaptations.ABOUT LAWRENCE C. CONNOLLYLawrence C. Connolly's books include the collections This Way to Egress, whose titular tale of psychological horror was adapted for the Mick Garris film Nightmare Cinema; and the Bram-Stoker-nominated Voices, which features Connolly's best stories from The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, Twilight Zone, Year's Best Horror, and other top magazines and anthologies of science fiction, fantasy, and horror. A third collection, Visions, was praised by Publishers Weekly for featuring an eclectic mix of “entertaining and satisfying” SF. His novels include the eco-thrillers Veins, Vipers, and Vortex. World Fantasy Award winner T. E. D. Klein called Veins “a crime thriller as intense and fast-moving as a Tarantino movie.” This fall, Caezik Science Fiction will release his new novel Minute-Men: Execute & Run, a globetrotting adventure that combines elements of military science fiction, gaming, and medical suspense in a thrilling reinvention of the superhero genre. He is collaborating with brother Christopher Connolly and Academy Award-winning producer Jonathan Sanger to develop a feature film based on Execute & Run. He is also the writer of Mystery Theatre, a podcast produced by Prime Stage Theatre, who premiered his adaptation of Frankenstein in 2022. His newset commission, a play based on the life and works of Edgar Allan Poe, opens in November 2025 at Pittsburgh's New Hazelett Theatre.More at MinuteMenNovel.com. Website: https://lawrencecconnolly.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lawrence.c.connolly.9Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lawrence_c_connolly/SHOW PRODUCTION BY Beth BaranySHOW CO-PRODUCTION + NOTES by Kerry-Ann McDadeEDITORIAL SUPPORT by Iman Llompartc. 2025 BETH BARANYhttps://bethbarany.com/Questions?

Yo soy el eco de siglos, la sombra que danza en las cimas de los Cárpatos. Mientras las luces de un mundo moderno se encienden, mi existencia se alimenta de la oscuridad y del recuerdo de un linaje que no conoce el fin. Mi castillo, una fortaleza de piedra que desafía el tiempo, es la frontera donde la ingenua fe se encuentra con mi eterna realidad. He convocado a un joven abogado a estas tierras de Transilvania, no por un simple contrato, sino porque ha llegado el momento de que mi señorío se extienda más allá de estas montañas brumosas. Inglaterra me espera: un hervidero de vida fresca e inocente, una tierra fértil donde la sangre late con una promesa que aún no conoce el frío beso del terror. La noche es larga, y mi sed, inmensurable; que comiencen los preparativos para la travesía. Un viaje que comienza con una simple transacción de negocios... a un castillo envuelto en la bruma de los Cárpatos. Pero lo que Jonathan Harker encuentra en Transilvania es algo más que un cliente. Es una sombra antigua... un anfitrión con una sed insaciable... El Conde Drácula se mueve. Y su objetivo... es Londres. La bruma victoriana será su nuevo coto de caza. Diarios. Cartas. Recortes de prensa. Esta no es solo una historia de terror, es un testimonio. La recopilación de un grupo de almas valientes que se enfrentan a lo desconocido. ¿Quién es realmente el monstruo que no se refleja en los espejos? ¿Un noble seductor o una bestia inmortal? ¿Qué ocurre cuando la superstición choca con la ciencia?

"No cut finger or noseblood quite prepares one for the sheer volume of redness - bright bright redness - as can spill and spurt from the frame." R.M. Renfield is one of the most enigmatic characters of Bram Stoker's Dracula - second only, perhaps, to the eponymous count himself. But how did he become the henchman of the vampire? Those answers are sought after in this riveting, intimate drama. We meet him as a young man in Victorian England, with a home life not so extraordinary... But a fascination with blood starts early, followed soon by a mysterious premonition, and a dark voice promises him riches to come. Part 1 of an original radioplay by Marty Ross, produced by Wireless Theatre Limited, about Dracula's henchman, R.M. Renfield. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Rachel is a Bram Stoker nominated writer who has been remarkably prolific since her hit debut novel The Return landed on shelves in 2020.Her latest book, Play Nice, centers around Clio Barnes, a stylist and successful influencer with a complex past: the home she grew up in wasn't just haunted, it was possessed. When her mother passes away suddenly, she returns home to find herself navigating the tricky perspectives of her upbringing. As she confronts her own perceptions about her childhood and her family, she will be forced to come to terms with some metaphorical -- and possibly very literal -- demons.Rachel's conversation with us quickly reveals the thoughtful depth that she brings to this unconventional haunted house tale as well as her strong talents at characterization and human observation which have made her prose so captivating. Play Nice is on bookshelves now and we highly recommend you check it out. Meanwhile, enjoy our special interview!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

¿Drácula se inspiró en Jack el Destripador? con Juan Antonio de Sanz A finales del siglo XIX, Londres estaba sumida en el miedo. Las calles de Whitechapel se teñían de sangre bajo la sombra de un asesino que nunca fue atrapado: Jack el Destripador. Mientras tanto, en la mente de un escritor irlandés llamado Bram Stoker, comenzaba a gestarse una de las figuras más inmortales de la literatura: el conde Drácula. ¿Pudo el terror real de Jack inspirar el horror literario de Drácula? Con Juan Antonio de Sanz, exploramos las sorprendentes coincidencias entre ambos mitos, el contexto social de una Inglaterra asfixiada por el miedo, y cómo el crimen, la oscuridad y la fascinación por la muerte pudieron transformarse en arte, mito y leyenda. Un viaje a las entrañas del Londres victoriano, donde el asesino y el vampiro parecen compartir algo más que su hambre de sangre: una misma sombra nacida del miedo humano.

There are some movies that stay with you. Gremlins is a huge part of our childhood. And though some of our memories may be muddled, we look back on it fondly. A more recent favorite is The Mummy, which has some of the best on-screen chemistry we have ever seen. We discuss our excitement for the upcoming sequels. Welcome to Derry has been a hit for HBO. The premiere was the third most watched in the history of the streaming service. There are some major caveats, but it is an accomplishment. Along those same lines is how the second episode was better than the first. It is noteworthy, but how much does it actually say about the show?Spoiler alert: nothing good. The debut was such a mess that if it did not improve in even the smallest way, Welcome to Derry would be a leading candidate for Worst Show of the Year. (As it is, it is still in the running.) Episode two has given us a clear road map of what is to come. We will be getting too much of everything. If you like over the top nonsensical storytelling, then this should be right up your alley.There is nothing wrong with putting your own spin on the Dracula mythos. Over the century plus since the seminal book was first published, many authors, actors, and filmmakers have put their own spin on Bram Stoker's tale. But one thing you should probably never try to do is completely re-write what happened.Yet, that is exactly what Joe Hill does with Abraham's Boys. Not a retelling from a different point of view or through a modern lens. A sequel that decides to make wild changes to the original. There is some promise with the general idea, but it is executed in a poor manner that ends up being the worst thing possible: boring.

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!

Happy Halloween! Tonight or tomorrow little trick or treaters will be out getting candy... what a perfect time to listen another spooky Christmas story for Halloween! Tonight's tale is called "The Judge's House", by the master of horror Bram Stoker. The story seems simple enough - a college student in need of a quiet place to study, rents an old house that that belonged to a judge whose cruelty was renowned. While his malignant portrait oversees the room, the rats come out to play... It may surprise you to learn that this tale was first published in a Christmas magazine in 1891. The Victorians, it seems, loved a good ghost story with their holiday cheer! I hope you find this story as delightfully chilling as I did while reading it for you.    Ways to support the show: Rate and review: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-cozy-christmas-podcast/id1523423375  Buy me a coffee? www.ko-fi.com/cozychristmas  Ornaments, Mugs, and Notebooks: https://www.etsy.com/shop/CozyChristmasPodcast  Logo shirt designs: http://tee.pub/lic/edygC_h4D1c    Contact Me: facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cozychristmaspodcast  instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cozychristmaspodcast/  twitter: https://twitter.com/CozyXmasPod  youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCikiozEbu0h9pKeI1Ei5TQ email: cozychristmaspodcast@gmail.com       Songs used: Epic Unease by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1100406 Artist: http://incompetech.com/   Dreamlike by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1100410 Artist: http://incompetech.com/   Apprehension - Supernatural Haunting by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1100327 Artist: http://incompetech.com/   Midnight in the Graveyard by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://www.twinmusicom.org/song/252/midnight-in-the-graveyard Artist: http://www.twinmusicom.org   Darkness Speaks by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1100364 Artist: http://incompetech.com/   #podcast #Christmas #christmaspodcast #halloween #halloweenstories #ghoststory

"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

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.

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 episode is a combination of two previous episodes that were broken apart, reassembled and brought back to life.

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!
