Dracula	comment	The original Bram Stoker novel that the Public Domain Character Dracula comes from. It was first published in 1897.Jonathan Harker, a young English solicitor about to be made partner, is sent out to Castle Dracula in Transylvania to assist a new client of his firm who's moving to London. Waiting for him back at home is his young fiancÃ©e, the schoolmistress Wilhelmina "Mina" Murray. Jonathan expects to be back home within a few weeks, but what he doesn't know is that Count Dracula is an ancient vampire, whose intentions are nothing less than a plan to rejuvenate himself with new blood from the teeming crowds of London.Meanwhile, back in England, Dr. John Seward, keeper of an insane asylum, notices a strange obsession of his patient Renfield: consuming live things, so as to absorb their life energy. Renfield also keeps trying to escape to the old abandoned house next door to the asylum, which seems to be seeing a lot of activity all of a sudden. And Lucy Westenra, Mina's beautiful best friend who has one fiancÃ© and two men in unrequited love with her (Dr. Seward being one of the two), is beginning to fall ill...Concerned about Lucy's failing health, Seward summons his Dutch mentor, Professor Abraham Van Helsing. When Van Helsing recognizes Lucy's symptoms as the mark of the vampire, he gathers her loved ones around him to save the girl: her fiancÃ© Arthur Holmwood, Lord Godalming; her American former suitor Quincey Morris; Jonathan Harker (who was found severely traumatized by Dracula, but alive); and Mina. Knowing that Dracula's power doesn't work during the day â€” although he can still move about, and fight, quite well during these hours â€” they form a plan to hunt him down and rid the world of him forever. Although the men initially try to keep Mina out of the loop to protect her feminine sensibilities, she quickly proves herself a strong and thoroughly clever investigator... which Dracula himself is just as quick to notice.For its many media adaptions, see the Dracula page or the Derivative Works page.This book is now in the public domain, and can be found on Project Gutenberg.

Dracula / int_10dcbe05	type	Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other
Dracula / int_10dcbe05	comment	Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: Sort of a twisted version with Dracula and the vampire women - who it is said he held love for once, but no longer (accused by the blonde and affirmed by Dracula). They disobey him when it comes to Jonathan but otherwise there's a reason the vampire women stay in castle and serve Dracula (either from fear, respect for him, or just total control over them). Dracula bringing them a baby to eat shows he does somewhat still care for them.

It was actually Hunyadi who ruled Transylvania (Vlad was from Wallachia), held the title of Count, and had connections to the SzÃ©kely peoples.

Adaptations of the novel usually make them one and the same person.

It's especially obvious in the situation when Lucy has been ravished and drained by the monster, and the men who love her have one option to restore her purity: to inject their own precious bodily fluids into her. This is lampshaded by one of the characters mocking the idea of the blood transfusion being a metaphorical sex act.

It appears, given later Vampire-deaths, that removing the head of a dead vampire removes their immortality and they revert to a human corpse of appropriate age. Since Lucy's corpse was too fresh to immediately rot (as, for example, Dracula himself did), filling the mouth with garlic is probably a way of making sure it doesn't come back as something undead in the meantime.

Dracula / int_177a6464	type	Genre Shift
Dracula / int_177a6464	comment	Genre Shift: The novel changes rather drastically in its presentation as the story progresses. It starts as "straight" Gothic Horror, with Jonathan trapped in an old, crumbling castle with mythological monsters. Then it becomes period drama as Lucy and Mina write each other about Lucy's love life and then vacation together in Whitby, then slams back hard into Gothic Horror when the Demeter lands in Whitby and Dracula encounters Lucy and starts feeding on her. Then Mina rushes off to see to Jonathan, Lucy goes back to London and Dracula moves there himself, and the novel becomes something of a medical drama as Seward and Van Helsing try to solve the riddle of her disease and save her life with cutting-edge medical treatments. Then it becomes a bit of a detective story as Van Helsing and Seward unravel the mystery of "The Bloofer Lady" and Mina compiles all the journals to finally form a coherent picture of what they're up against, and as the crew attempt to track down where Dracula's boxes of earth have moved to. Then it becomes something of a heist story as they try and figure out how to gain access to the houses Dracula has purchased to store his boxes in so they can destroy them. Then transforms into a Stern Chase as they try and track Dracula and get to him before he reaches his Castle, and before sunset when his full powers return.

Dracula / int_1869b4b1	type	Unreliable Narrator
Dracula / int_1869b4b1	comment	Unreliable Narrator: Within the context of the novel, the story exists as a series of transcriptions of letters and newspaper clippings about the eponymous vampire; about midway through the novel, Dracula destroys the originals by tossing them into a fireplace in order to discredit the protagonists should they ever wish to make their story public. The transcriptions are kept by Mina Harker, a trained secretary, who foresees the usefulness in keeping backups. However, Mina herself undergoes some pretty severe trauma throughout the course of the novel; apart from the whole vampire-hunting thing, her best friend is turned by Dracula (and then staked by her friends), and she very narrowly escapes being turned into a vampire herself, which brings her mental state and her reliability as a recordkeeper into question. Many film adaptations, unofficial sequel novels and fanfics take this idea and run with it, presenting the 'official" version of events from the novel as having been an alteration or straight-up fabrication of what "really" happened.

Dracula / int_1c445e86	comment	Poor Communication Kills: The characters come up with lots of logical reasons to not tell each other things, which always ends up biting them in the...neck. In the first section of the novel, the locals very clearly do not want Jonathan going anywhere near Castle Dracula, but don't explain exactly why. Even without getting into the matter of whether or not Jonathan would believe them if they explained, a lot of this can be chalked up to a language barrier. The locals are mostly speaking a language Jonathan doesn't recognize (presumably Romanian or Hungarian), and don't speak any English. Jonathan, a native English speaker, speaks rather good German, and most of the locals he meets do know enough German to talk with him, but some of them don't know enough to articulate what exactly is going on and why he should be scared. Van Helsing is understandably reluctant to tell anyone his theory that Lucy is being attacked by a living corpse each night, and additionally doesn't want to let on to Mrs. Westenra how serious things really are due to the fear it will spook her into a heart attack, but she surely wouldn't have tossed out the garlic had she known the stakes. Had the gang seen fit to include Mina in their conferences, she might have been saved from Dracula's attacks. The moment she is included in the discussions, she puts the pieces together that leads the group to finally confronting Dracula.

Unfortunately for the Count, Mina finds a way to break his control during the magically-critical times of sunrise and sunset and provides very helpful Psychic Radar.

In classic literature, tuberculosis was used as a stock disease. It was rarely referred to by name, but the symptoms were always the same: a young lady would become pale and sleepy, and a blush would show on her sickly face. When Van Helsing refuses to name Lucy's illness, the reader of the era would have assumed that she has tuberculosis. But actually, Van Helsing realizes that she's becoming a vampire.

Van Helsing explains that most vampires uncontrollably revert to a hideous appearance whenever they go to sleep because they're so malign, but because Lucy was a good person in life and was being hypnotized when she was turned, that doesn't happen to her. However, the "Bloofer Lady" is a monster, and her lovely, innocent appearance is only a reminder of who she was, which makes staking her emotionally difficult. Throughout the novel, characters linger on facial features in particular and make judgments about an individual's character based on them. Nearly all of the positive assessments turn out to be on the mark.

Dracula / int_3fb4b1cb	comment	The Renfield: Trope Namer, but is actually an Unbuilt Trope here, seeing as he attempts to foil Dracula twice, the second ending with the loss of his own life. While he certainly seems willing to become Dracula's slave, being locked in at Dr. Seward's sanatorium rather limits his options and the Count seems to more or less ignore him throughout. (Until he finally visits him in his cell and kills him.) Renfield at one point demands that he be moved so that Dracula will not compel him to let him into the house to attack Mina. When this fails, the second time Dracula enters, he grabs Dracula and tries to kill him with his bare hands, while the Count is in mist form. And he would have succeeded, too, if Dracula hadn't used his Hypnotic Eyes. The novel never makes clear where Renfield's madness comes from or why he seems to be, as Seward says, "mixed up with the Count in an indexy way." It appears that Renfield just spontaneously developed this unusual, vampire-tangiential madness, and Dracula has some passive, perhaps even unintentional, influence over him, which Dracula fails to exploit until well into the book. Adaptations usually explicitly make Dracula the cause of Renfeild's madness, and have the Count deliberately cultivate Renfield as an agent.

Keeping watch over her at night, giving her blood transfusions when necessary, making sure all the windows are sealed tight, etc. When Van Helsing procures some garlic flowers, they can relax a little, because the garlic will protect Lucy without anyone having to watch her. Unfortunately, Lucy's mother â€” kept in the dark due to a heart condition, and thus completely unaware of the gravity of the situation or the importance of the garlic â€” removes the flowers because they're making the room stuffy, and also opens the windows to let fresh air in. This leaves Lucy with absolutely no protection that night, and she gets attacked again, requiring yet another blood transfusion. After all the setbacks they've faced already, to be set back again by Mrs. Westenra's well-meaning interference is so frustrating that for the first time in his life, Dr. Seward sees Van Helsing break down.

When Mina wakes to find Lucy gone, she notes that Lucy has left both her dressing gown (which would indicate she's in the house) and her dress (which would indicate she's outside) in the bedroom. She went out and all the way across town in only her nightgown.

Dracula / int_4e6e4dc7	comment	The Coroner Doth Protest Too Much: After Lucy and her mother die during an attack by Dracula (Lucy for vampiric reasons, her mother by fright-assisted heart failure), Dr. Seward undertakes to sign the death certificates and fudge the circumstances enough to avoid an official enquiry, since it would hold up the hunt for Dracula and nobody would believe the truth anyway. When Renfield is killed by Dracula, Seward does the same again. This is a more extreme example: Renfield suffers multiple cranial and spinal injuries, such that he'd have been paralyzed for life if he'd lived, but Seward marks down the maner of death as "misadventure in falling from bed".

Dracula / int_5009999d	type	Painting the Medium
Dracula / int_5009999d	comment	Painting the Medium: The book is a series of letters between many of the characters. The reader is intended to interpret the novel as a bound collection of letters, and each includes headers with dates and signatures. It's very effective at drawing some readers in, especially since the viewpoints sufficiently show different characters' personalities, but it can also seem disjointed, since it switches around a lot and (usually) looks like normal fonts pretending to be letters. This is actually a plot point; Van Helsing has his hypotheses after Lucy's death, but it isn't until he gets his hands on Mina and Jonathan's journals, detailing the first incidents of Lucy's affliction and Jonathan's time in Transylvania respectively, along with his and Seward's own observations, that he comes to a solid conclusion. Mina then assembles all the relevant letters, journal entries, telegraphs, newspaper clippings, and so on into one coherent manuscript, which then forms the foundation of the group's game plan to defeat Dracula. Copies are distributed to and read by the hunters so everyone can literally be on the same page.

Dracula / int_511728ae	comment	Magic Versus Science: One of the themes in the novel is the old age of superstition and magic embodied by Dracula versus the new age of science embodied by the protagonists. Initially, magic aka Dracula has the edge because the scientific worldview has no place for him and refuses to accept that vampires exist. Dracula does not work the way science says the world works so he can act with impunity. Ironically, only by getting rid of the conflict and combining the two in Van Helsing is Dracula defeated. Van Helsing accepts things outside of the scientific worldview and uses those unorthodox methods to fight Dracula. At the same time, he uses modern scientific advances such as technology and criminal theory to predict Dracula's movements and eventually defeat him.

Dracula / int_5ce7dbb9	comment	Central Theme: Love. Dracula is a sociopathic monsters who's "love" consists of forcing himself upon his victims, while the heroes are all bound together by love. Not just romantic either, though there's plenty of that, but the love that keeps three friends together even when they all fall for the same woman, the love of a teacher for the students under his care, and the love for someone long gone that keeps them fighting to avenge her. More broadly, it's the classic Romantic VS Enlightenment argument; specifically "old world" (magic/superstition) VS "new world" (science/technology). Dracula is a gothic novel after all, which leans heavily towards romanticism. Dracula himself has the edge throughout most of the story because his existence is not even fathomable by members of this "new world." The most terrifying ability of Dracula (to a Victorian Brit) is his ability to cause sophisticated modern women to slip back into "savage" sexuality.

But after meeting the count, finding how strange he and his dwelling are and ultimately nearly being bitten by three vampires, it doesn't take long for him to become a believer. Later after Lucy dies from Dracula succeeding in draining her blood, Van Helsing tries to convince Seward, Arthur and Quincy that she will become a vampire and be a danger to all. Naturally they think he's cuckoo, so Van Helsing decides he needs to show them first. He starts with Seward, his trusted student, as they watch Lucy's coffin and indeed find it initially empty then after waiting a bit, find it filled again with her body, only to discover she hasn't decayed since she was interred and in fact much more beautiful then ever. The following night, Van Helsing gathers the rest of the men and confront Lucy directly as she prowls the night. Indeed, seeing her bearing fangs with bits of blood on her lips, acting not at all like the Lucy they know (feral and seductive instead of kind and caring), acting fearful of a cross and using her powers to flee back to her coffin is more than enough proof to the men that vampires, and the threat they pose, are real.

Seward and Morris join forces with Holmwood and Van Helsing to kill the vampirized Lucy so her soul can rest (they let Holmwood be the one to stake Lucy as he was her betrothed).

Otherwise it's permanent (can't exactly bring a walking corpse back to normal after all). Justified, in that bitten victims will simply heal naturally. Mina was bitten a few times and survived, and even Lucy required multiple, increasingly violent visits from Dracula, thanks to Doctor Van Helsing successfully resuscitating her.

Dracula / int_7286e96d	comment	Idiot Ball: The main characters know that a vampire can only enter a house into which he is invited, but they still keep his victim in a house that they know Dracula can already enter. Also, they know that Lucy died and rose as a vampire after becoming paler and weaker over many days. When Mina's not feeling well and looking rather pale, they write it off as a simple illness. Luckily, Dracula has it too. Van Helsing concludes that Dracula is doing what he did when he was a mortal man â€” raising an army and invading another country, only it's England this time and not the Ottoman Empire. Dracula goes about this by attacking and attempting to turn a grand total of two women. He fails miserably with both. And once Harker, Seward, Van Helsing, and the rest of the party learn of Dracula and start taking steps to thwart him, he doesn't bother to do anything but attack Mina to use her as a spy (which backfires spectacularly because she can spy on him) and to burn their notes while they are all sleeping when he could have killed them.

So when she retrieves Lucy and brings her back, she sees the marks on Lucy's neck and assumes she pricked her with a safety pin though Lucy notes she doesn't feel any pain. As she starts to fall ill from later attacks, Seward can't make the connection that the mark is related to her declining health and it's only till Van Helsing is brought in, that mark signal him of a vampire attack. Alas, when Lucy is drained too heavily a third and final time, the marks heal on their own, which Van Helsing cites is too late for her. Mina gains her own when Dracula bites her after forcing her to drink his blood, this combination is so she'll turn regardless if she's alive or not as long as Dracula lives. The book downplays this though for the imprint wafer that's burned into her skin, but the bite marks are likewise noted to be a sign of if she's in danger of turning if they close.

It's never explicitly said, but Van Helsing clearly demonstrates perfect knowledge of vampire weaknesses and is instantly willing to make use of his knowledge after noting that Lucy's symptoms match those in the legends, without so much as a hint of skepticism. This would seem to imply that he has some previous experience with vampires or other supernatural phenomena, even in the original novel. On the other hand, he doesn't recognize Lucy's symptoms on sight, he has to periodically return to Amsterdam to do more research, and it takes him a while — too long, in fact, to prevent Lucy's death — to understand what's going on.

Dracula / int_9f63d4f1	comment	Our Vampires Are Different: Dracula does not follow the standard rules, largely because he predates most of them. The Count is stated to be a student of Satan, having been turned into a vampire through his own necromancy rather than through The Virus, and his classic vampire powers are implied to all be more black magic rather than innate to the vampire's body. Dracula establishes the idea of vampires mixing blood with humans Ã la Interview with the Vampire, The Lost Boys, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, though this is bastardised by them into becoming the method of turning a victim into a new vampire. In the novel, blood mixing is purely for Dracula to be able to link his mind directly with Mina's. What is actually stated in the book by Van Helsing is that all it takes for a vampire to make more vampires is to bite a victim and their death whether swift or eventual will be enough to make them rise again, which is the version seen in From Dusk Till Dawn, John Carpenter's Vampires and Blade.

The old salt also reveals the epigraph is true only in the strictest sense — the body in question did fall from the cliff, but only after he shot himself in the head.

Dracula / int_b097493c	comment	Madonna-Whore Complex: Lucy fills the role of the Madonna â€” a sweet pure girl who is beloved by all for her innocence. When she becomes a vampire, she's now a Whore â€” described as voluptuous and far more sexual. Overall, the novel averts this big time (though later critics would frequently miss the subversion entirely). Lucy, the sweet and innocent girl who doesn't have a flaw other than naÃ¯vetÃ©, ends up killed by the monster, which her virginity and purity did not protect her from. Mina, the more liberated and independent woman who's also not a virgin (she's married and most likely had a wedding night), on the other hand, survives, and is vital to taking down Dracula.

The reason it's ironic is because Mina becomes assertive after her encounter with Dracula and is both able to resist his influence (with some help) and coming up with the idea to use her newfound psychic link with Dracula to lead the hunters to him. Throughout the book, Mina is an intelligent, competent, strong, heroic, and admirable female character by modern standards.

Dracula / int_b91eaeea	type	Must Be Invited
Dracula / int_b91eaeea	comment	Must Be Invited: Tricking one of the inmates of an insane asylum into inviting you in apparently counts. Also Inverted: The Count is apparently forbidden from doing anything that could be construed as forcing Jonathan Harker to enter his castle or forbidding him from leaving, so stays firmly behind the threshold until he chooses to "Enter freely and of your own will," and when Jonathan insists on leaving, Dracula is quite willing to open the gates, but when Jonathan hears the wolves outside, he asks Dracula to close the doors again. Or Dracula could've just been a dick on a power trip. Another possibility is that since it's ambiguous whether Dracula (at this early stage of the book) is genuinely Affably Evil or Faux Affably Evil, his invitation might be some form of courtesy that modern readers don't get; while his famous invitation may stand out a lot nowadays, Jonathan does not seem to think there is anything strange about it. It's possible that Dracula doesn't realise that humans are not bound by similar rules about invitations; Van Helsing talks at some length about how Dracula is ignorant about the full extent of his own abilities (something which never seems to make it into the films), so maybe this applies to his limitations equally and Dracula thought Jonathan required an invitation just like he would. Dracula's invitation to Jonathan is never brought up again, not even in the form of Jonathan lamenting the irony that he willingly entered the castle, so it might not have been intended to be particularly important. As noted in the intro, the idea that The Fair Folk etc. could not exercise their full power over humans without some kind of consent is Older Than Dirt, so maybe Stoker was deliberately trying to invoke this trope. Dracula has certain other traits normally associated with The Fair Folk, and it's apparent between this and other elements of subtext that the Dracula story is in at least some part an allegory of the relationship between imperial England and Ireland.

While being fed upon is arousing for the victim, this is explicitly a kind of Mind Rape and the kiss/bite of the vampire is an analogy for sexual assault. Dracula tricks Renfield into inviting him in and physically forces Mina to drink his blood against her will, leaving the traumatized girl to go through periods of denial, anger, and depression while viewing what she suffered that night as a Fate Worse than Death than which nothing could possibly be worse. Since most Gothic literature of the 18th and 19th centuries used the word "seduce" where we would use "rape", Stoker gets major points for being possibly the first author since Edmund Spenser to recognize the difference between seduction and force. Jonathan is appalled by the fact that his attack by the Brides turned him on, and feels tremendous guilt about how this might affect Mina.

Most known is that it turns the victim into a monster, they gain a few powers, and they drink blood. Okay, fine, but outside that, we only get hints that it's the worst thing ever for the victim, because apparently their souls are either trapped in their bodies or taken over by the monster they become (Lucy's sudden shifts in demeanor as she's dying lends some credence to this). Or the person becomes corrupted and evil just from turning. Outside of feeding on humans, it never really goes into too much detail on the specifics of what's causing the change. But that might just add to the mystique for the sake of horror. Dr. Van Helsing also mentions a few vampire powers that are never used, like using a victim's tomb as an alternative sanctuary or animating normal corpses to do their bidding.

This, he explains, is also how the vampire hunters will get into Dracula's houses without drawing attention — by calling a locksmith during the busiest and most awake hours of the day, they will avoid suspicion by acting like they don't need to avoid suspicion.

It's only because of Dracula that they're prevented from feeding on Harker; it's clear if they had the chance, Harker would've been drained instantly and most likely turned into a vampire. And it's only due to Van Helsing's wafers that they were kept at bay from taking Mina. And even then, they don't give up on trying to get her till the sun rises, even killing the pair's horses. If it was anyone else looking after Mina, the women would've most likely overpowered her protectors and claimed Mina easily.

What's more, one of Lucy's admirers runs the lunatic asylum right next door to Dracula's new house. He also has a friend and mentor who, while not a vampire hunter, certainly knows a lot about how to deal with them or ward them off. Honestly, if Drac had landed anywhere else, his plan would've gone off without a hitch. In Chapter 2, Harker notes that Whitby is circled on Dracula's map of England, implying that the Count's arrival there is not strictly coincidental; why he would have chosen that place, even before he learns of Mina, is a bit of a mystery (some adaptations, such as the 1970s BBC version, have Jonathan mentioning Mina staying at Whitby beforehand, so when he learns of Dracula circling it, he knows it was a deliberate choice, and otherwise it may be inferred that Dracula somehow knew about Mina beforehand and had already chosen her).

Dracula / int_e3c20140	comment	As Long as It Sounds Foreign: Stoker uses the word "nosferatu" as an appealingly foreign-sounding synonym for "vampire", and identified as his source a work that cited it as the Romanian translation of "not living". Unfortunately, the word doesn't exist in Romanian, and no alternative etymologies (a Greek word meaning "disease-bearing," a Latin word meaning "you are our wild beast," or a mis-transcription of a legitimate, but unknown, Romanian or Slavonic word) have gained anything like consensus. At times, Van Helsing's speech is just a random string of words without any resemblance to Dutch syntax. But every once in awhile, he sounds perfectly Dutch ("He infect you in such wise, that even if he do no more, you have only to live" is a very Dutch structure, for example). He occasionally slips some German into sentences, such as exclaiming "Mein Gott!" when shocked, but never once slips into Dutch.

Dracula / int_eb9afb9d	comment	The book was published when "vampires" were ghoulish specters of Satan rather than rape allegories, and Stoker was more than happy to deconstruct both at the same time; as such the Count bears little resemblance to the vampires we know and love today. Dracula is less suave master of the night and more old cranky warlock. He was only handsome if he could be arsed enough to shapeshift; his default form was a wrinkled hairy man. He was bad at seduction and resorted to hypnosis or kidnapping for most of his food, and his female victims were setups for tuberculosis imagery instead of anything sexual. He was a Daywalking Vampire. His vulnerability to the old medieval superstitions (requires soil from his homeland to rest in, cannot cross running water without a boat, Must Be Invited, etc) leaves him easy pickings for Van Helsing and makes him easy to track when he tries to flee back to his castle. Most egregiously, he's not killed by impaling stake or silver, but an (admittedly pretty cool) beheading by kukri knife!

Dracula / int_ed581814	comment	Dismembering the Body: Justified. After Lucy Westenra dies, Van Helsing stabs her in the heart and cuts her head off so she stops being a vampire. Somewhat downplayed, as it is seems with Dracula's death that the head does not need to be completely severed i.e. the body could remain mostly intact.

Of course, it doesn't help that Van Helsing still refers to him by his given name. Then again, Jonathan Harker is never referred to except as Jonathan.

Also something of an inversion in that most of the team is composed of "Lucy's suitors" and in most of the bits of the book happening after Transylvania, Jonathan appears as "Mina's husband" rather than the other way around, even though Mina does first appear as "Jonathan's fiancÃ©e".

Dracula / int_f0e85546	type	Unbuilt Trope
Dracula / int_f0e85546	comment	Unbuilt Trope: The book was published when "vampires" were ghoulish specters of Satan rather than rape allegories, and Stoker was more than happy to deconstruct both at the same time; as such the Count bears little resemblance to the vampires we know and love today. Dracula is less suave master of the night and more old cranky warlock. He was only handsome if he could be arsed enough to shapeshift; his default form was a wrinkled hairy man. He was bad at seduction and resorted to hypnosis or kidnapping for most of his food, and his female victims were setups for tuberculosis imagery instead of anything sexual. He was a Daywalking Vampire. His vulnerability to the old medieval superstitions (requires soil from his homeland to rest in, cannot cross running water without a boat, Must Be Invited, etc) leaves him easy pickings for Van Helsing and makes him easy to track when he tries to flee back to his castle. Most egregiously, he's not killed by impaling stake or silver, but an (admittedly pretty cool) beheading by kukri knife! A lot of media paints Abraham Van Helsing as a hardcore expert in vampires and knowing how to deal with them. In truth in the novel, while somewhat composed, even he knows he's in a bit over his head since the supernatural isn't something simple that medical science will explain or have a concrete solution to. When he sees Lucy, it takes a while for him to come to the conclusion that she's being attacked by a vampire and, by then, Dracula has bitten her twice. His counteractions are just simple wards at best and it doesn't take much for his efforts to be ruined and Dracula to finish feeding on Lucy. Van Helsing is just as horrified when Lucy starts turning on her deathbed and even more so when having to actually confront her vampire form in the cemetery, just barely preventing Arthur from being bitten by her (twice!). He's likewise just as shaken when he finally confronts Dracula at night and does indeed become scared for Mina during the trip up to Dracula's castle. Heck, the whole encounter with the vampire women when they attack the camp Mina and he were in was an on-the-fly plan since he wasn't really sure if the makeshift holy circle of wafers he made would really protect the two of them, which luckily for him, it did. The point of all this is that, at the end of the day, Van Helsing isn't a professional vampire hunter; he's just a simple doctor trying hard to keep up with the situation as best he can.

Dracula / int_f9e4739d	comment	I Do Not Drink Wine: While the famous line doesn't appear in the novel (it was invented for the 1931 film), Jonathan Harker does notice that he never sees the Count drink or eat... food. The line that does appear in the novel is "I have dined already, and I do not sup", meaning that he has already partaken of an early evening meal, and does not eat late. However, Dracula does apparently keep a good wine cellar for guests, as Harker comments very favorably upon the "excellent bottle of old Tokay" he is served with his first supper at Castle Dracula.

Dracula / int_fa6bfde9	comment	Have a Gay Old Time: "As he did so he started back, and I could hear his ejaculation, â€œMein Gott!â€� as it was smothered in his throat". When the letters between Mina Murray and Lucy Westenra contain such titillating turns of phrase as "I am longing to be with you", "We have told all our secrets since we were children; we have slept together...", and "I wish I were with you, dear, sitting by the fire undressing, as we used to sit", it's very easy for modern readers to get the wrong idea about the nature of their relationship. They're just good friends. Honest. Specifically it's a devoted Pseudo-Romantic Friendship quite normal for those days. There were Romantic Two-Guy Friendships too and even church services to solemnize these unions. Lucy is in "gay spirits" at one point using the old meaning of the word. van Helsing's remarks about the "smuts of London" i.e. the dirty marks on buildings etc. from soot caused a fair bit of amusement on Tumblr during the 2022 'Dracula Daily' run. "Poor fellow. He looked desperately sad and broken. Even his stalwart manhood seemed to have shrunk somewhat under the strain of his much tried emotions."

Dracula / int_fc9b6be5	comment	Foe Romance Subtext: Some interpret there to be romantic tensions between Dracula and Lucy, Dracula and Mina, and/or Dracula and Jonathan. Literary scholars regularly debate whether any of this was intentional or not. Not only was Stoker a rather old-fashioned type writing when the social and sexual liberation movements were just beginning to take off, but it is generally taken as fact by historians that Stoker himself was a heavily closeted self-hating gay man, and further, commonly assumed by literary scholars that Stoker used the story of Dracula to work through some issues, so the sexualized nature of the vampires took on a whole new meaning as an unsubtle appeal for restraint. (Scholars also note that while Dracula is knifed, female vampires are killed by having something long and hard stuck in them. This is discussed in SERIOUS SCHOLARLY WORKS.) When the female vampires in the castle attempt to "kiss" (read: bite) Jonathan, Drac shows up and chases them off, saying, "He belongs to me!" There is little to no heterosexual explanation for the passage that follows:
