so at a used book store a couple months back i found an annotated copy of dracula, and now that dracula daily is a thing, i’ve finally gotten around to reading it.
they have the fuckign. chicken paprika recipe that knocked out our boy johnny.
now you too can upset your mild-mannered stomach so badly that you have fever dreams of a sexy haunted castle
[ID: two men on a bus meme. The smiling man looking out at the scenery is labeled “Jonathan Harker looking at the pretty mountains”. The sad man looking at the cliff face is labeled “Romanian peasants trying to avoid being eaten by vampires”.]
Jonathan Harker’s trip to Castle Dracula, summarized.
thankful to Dracula Daily for teaching me that this Hark a Vagrant comic is literally exactly what happens in the book
My favorite part about 1931 Dracula is that there are armadillos running around Dracula’s castle.
Look at this it’s like they couldn’t find any rats so they just were like “eh close enough no one will notice”. But I noticed. I noticed.
“WE NAILED IT BOYS”
Apparently in the 20s and 30s, armadillos weren’t very commonly known, so moviemakers would use them wherever they needed some creepy, ‘demonic’ animal running around. So there were a lot of armadillos in early filmmaking, and it was often people’s only source of reference for armadillos.
Fast forward twenty years to when the father of the biology professor who told me this is driving out from the east coast to see his son in California. Crossing the southwest at night.
An armadillo runs across the road.
He comes to a screeching halt and the Thing Of Evil, which he never knew was actually a real animal, trots the rest of the way across the road and vanishes into the desert.
Apparently it shook him up rather a bit.
The post got better.

Important note to all Dracula fans - Coca-Cola was invented in 1886, and the story is set in 1897. This means you can authentically hint at coca-cola in any and all fanworks set around the book’s time period.
(not that it’s very impressive, since Dracula himself wouldn’t drink it, but certainly the American suitor can!)
Van Hellsing absolutely wired on classic cocaine coca cola defeating dracula
So I think I might have just invented a mix seasoning
Amongst others it has paprika, garlic, onion, celery, lemon, chili pepper and some smoked salt and it’s fucking amazing
that little chunk of chocolate at the bottom of the drumstick cone reblog if you agree
