Elixir of Life

After extensive research, Annie believed she found a way to save her child. There was a dangerous spirit she could capture. With it's blood she could heal her daughter's illness.

Unfortunately the creature Annie needed was a vampire.

A spiteful thing stuck between life and death. It grew more wicked the longer it roamed the earth. Killing it would be a favor to itself and the world.

A single blessing guarded by a thousand curses.

She knew better than to call such evil. Yet how could she go on living without doing all she could for her family. It wouldn't be long before Stack got restless and hopped town again. And her husband would surely follow his brother. Smoke would never have to see her fall weak to desperation. But by then, it may be too late. Time was not on their side.

She needed to act with the information she had. While Smoke would be furious, she hoped Elijah would understand.

Vampire Qustion—

Who amongst yall has read “Dracul” by Dacre Stoker and JD Barker?

Re-reading for the 3rd time and realizing I don’t know many folks who’ve read it. Where are all of my people on this, and why have I not run into fellow freaks for how crazy this book is?

If you’re unfamiliar, it’s the hypothetical/fictional story of how Dracula came to be written. And yes—it’s scary.

It draws from the Icelandic version of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, called the Makt Myrkranna (which went uncensored, while the British one was basically re-written under censoring, and hello there was a female vampire that Dracula was scared of, but she got cut out in the British version 😡)

And it draws from Irish Folklore and mythology.

Basically go read it (it’s gory horror so 18+) if you haven’t, and if you have read it– – we gotta talk. 

…anyone else kinda have a thing for Thornley Stoker? No?Just me?

Happy World Dracula Day!

Aside from the original, I also have works inspired by Stoker's brilliant story. I think my favorite of these is The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova, but I haven't yet read Dracula's Child. We'll see how that one turns out!
