I don't understand the problem people have with rewrites of Dracula that humanize him. Yes, Dracula in the original book is a pure representation of evil. But like Carmilla he is a fictional and almost mythological figure at this stage who evolves with the times. The myth of the vampire has changed, so it is logical that Dracula himself follows this model. The book will still exist, so what's the problem ? The same goes for offering him a romance, whether or not it is with a rewriting of the character of Mina or an another invented female character, or sometimes a woman linked to the Van helsing lineage, or even Van helsing changed directly into a woman !

Even Jonathan himself for exemple in order to explore a homosexuality or bisexuality in the story of Dracula ! Strangely I never see people revolting when Jonathan is placed as a romantic interest. I totally see where that's coming from, but the fact is that their relationship isn't good in the original material either.

As for the problem of Mina, a strong female character, apparently having her strong characteristics erased when she is made Dracula's lover... I don't agree.

After all, it all depends on how the thing is done. Yes, the Mina from the 1992 film is not the one from the book (which is far from being a flawless representation of a strong woman... Yes, for the time when the book was released, it works, but in our time modern era, there are flaws apparently, as with most works dating back a certain number of years), but she still remains a strong female character in her own way and morally ambiguous in this adaptation. It's just a different version. I particularly liked the version of Mina in the canceled series of 2013. These 3 versions of Mina are all strong women on different levels.

Don't make me say what I didn't say. I love the original version of Dracula, and I really hope one day to have a more or less faithful adaptation, but the rewritings of the characters of Dracula and Mina are not to be demonized. I also think that we will surely continue in the future to have versions where Mina and Dracula are associated together as lovers, as other times not. Maybe one day we'll even have a version with Dracula and Jonathan officially partnered as lovers. Who knows ? And everything will simply depend on the writing of the characters. On the other hand, yes, I am a little exasperated by the tendency to make Jonathan a character either bland or an asshole in certain adaptations. Give me the adorable Harker from the book for a change please... Anyway, these are my thoughts on the various adaptations of the Dracula myth !

Do you think he slipped back into his old ways when he lost her again? Do you think he screamed at paintings of himself, demanding to know how he could have been so selfish that once he realized he'd fallen for her, he hasn't sent her away and instead let her lay with him? Did he ask himself how could he ever have loved her if he let her forsake her chance at paradise for him?

How did Dracula handle losing Lisa all over again?

«You are the kindest thing that ever happened to me, even if that is not how our tale is told.

When everyone else told me I was destined to be a forgotten nymph that nutured flowers and turn meadows gold,

you saw that the ichor that resides in me demanded its own throne. You showed me

how a love like ours can turn even the darkest, coldest realm into the happiest of homes»

Adrian nearly threw up the moment he stepped into his parents' room.

The stench was unbearable. It was the reek of the dead, of the stagnant air, of grief. Adrian wanted nothing to do with it, he only longed to bury himself deep underground, but he had to walk forward and approach his father.

He had not changed in the last few days, sitting as still as a statue on the bed. What was left of Mother, however, did. Her face was unrecognizable, bloated, eyes sunken and lips parted as if she were breathing. But she was not, and she would never anymore.

Adrian did not sob, for he had cried enough since Mother bled her last drop of blood.

"Father, you have to let her go."

"No," was the quiet answer.

"We need to bury her. Please."

"No."

"I'll do it. I won't make you do it. But Father…"

Father only clung harder to Mother's corpse, a shield between him and Adrian. She lolled like a doll. Her head was at such an unnatural angle that Adrian feared he would have to see it fall from her neck.

He sighed, and knowing full well how futile it would be, he tried to pry Mother out of Father's claws.

"No!" the vampire Lord cried like a child. "No, do not take her away from me!"

Adrian could not break his heart any further.

"She's not here anymore, Father."

"Lisa… my Lisa… oh, why did you leave without me…? I should have protected you…"

Vampires had no tears to shed, yet that did not stop Father from sobbing, nose buried in the crook of Mother's neck. Adrian remembered his father as a massive, imposing creature, a giant that shook everyone's hearts in fear yet was gentle with him and Mother. He was a mountain, strong and solid and reliable, and Adrian looked up to him and wished he could be like him.

Now, he looked far too small, hunched over and cradling Mother's body in his arms, not even raising his head to look at his son. It never should have been like this. He should have been the one holding Adrian, comforting him and protecting him from the assaulting memories of Mother drawing her last breath.

Adrian was left alone.
