What Dracula adaptations are about: Victorian beauty, romance, gore, gentle kisses in the night, other gothic poetry stuff
What the book was about: A group of friends and their weird kooky grandpa kill Dracula to avenge their collective dead girlfriend
Some Mina and Jonathan Harker for the end of spooky season. ♥
✨ Mina Harker ✨
I love the Harkers so much! I really need to try to settle on a design for Jonathan too.
And just draw these two dorks more in general.
They're delightful ♥
Anyone trying to enter the Harkers' train compartment for the past week
Mina: "Alright, everyone pinkie swear right now to put Vampire Me down if I hop the line between death and undeath."
Van Helsing and the Suitor Squad: "Depressing, but sure, absolutely."
Jonathan:
Mina: "...Jonathan?"
Jonathan: "Yes?"
Mina: "Will you promise to slay me if I get vampire'd?"
Jonathan: "Mina, I will not lie to you."
Jonathan:
Mina: "Jonathan. I need you to look me in the eye and promise to murder me martyr-style if I get too undead."
Jonathan: "Fine. I can promise to kill."
Mina: "Me? Vampire me?"
Jonathan, making unbroken eye contact with the four guys who just promised to behead and impale his wife if she stops being human enough: "I guarantee there will be killing involved if Vampire You happens."
Happy wedding day to the couple of all time
Illy Harkers may your marriage be less eventful this time around
AHHHH I DONT KNOW HOW TO DRAW MINA
THEYRE ALL SO PRETTY
Jonathan Harker is dead.
The official cause given by police was that he leaned too far out of a high-up window and fell. There are multiple witnesses that can testify to this, but that doesn’t stop the rumors that Count Dracula himself was responsible.
His body is brought back to England the same day the Demeter crashes on shore.
A few months later, Mina finds Jonathan’s journal inside the coat he died in. She reads it, horrified, and turns it over to the doctors examining her friend Lucy’s strange illness.
Van Helsing and Seward, after reading the journal and the supernatural death of Lucy, know what they have to do.
Dracula leaves for Transylvania once more, but not before attacking Mina. She, Seward, Arthur, Van Helsing, and Quincey follow with the intention to put an end to the vampire.
Seward fears one of Dracula’s brides spotted the group while they snuck into Castle Dracula, so they evacuate immediately. While leaving, Mina could have sworn she caught a glimpse of a familiar face…
So that’s my Dracula AU! A concept at least. I got the idea while listening to the song “I Know Those Eyes/This Man is Dead” I HIGHLY suggest giving it a listen!
Songs of the AU: The World has Gone Insane, I Know Those Eyes/This Man is Dead.
