"For a moment or two I could see nothing, as the shadow of a cloud obscured St. Mary’s Church and all around it. Then as the cloud passed I could see the ruins of the abbey coming into view; and as the edge of a narrow band of light as sharp as a sword-cut moved along, the church and the churchyard became gradually visible. Whatever my expectation was, it was not disappointed, for there, on our favourite seat, the silver light of the moon struck a half-reclining figure, snowy white."
Mina and Lucy in the kirkyard at Whitby, August 11th.

how dare adaptations make dracula/mina the ship when first of all, jonathan is the obvious gothic heroine of the book, and second of all mina would put the fear of God in dracula for touching her man. she proposed to him as soon as he woke up from his coma and MARRIED him while he was in the sick bed of a catholic hospital, this girl is Not Normal either

hey why are the Van Helsings always the Vampire Hunting Family in modern Dracula stories. Abraham Van Helsing might be the guy who knows stuff but his family is off in the Netherlands and/or dead and totally uninvolved in the plot. Abraham's great-great grandson has no reason to be doing backflips and chopping off heads or whatever
You know who is a family who hates Dracula so so much and would totally teach their kids how to hunt vampires? The Harkers. Give me a modern vampire story where the protagonists are about to die when out pops Quincey Arthur John Lucy Abraham Murray Harker the Fifth, armed with a giant knife and an encyclopedic knowledge of train schedules

Modern day Jonathan would have an Instagram full of food pics and Mina
Mina’s Instagram would have photos of Jonathan taking photos of food
Dracula’s Instagram would be photos of Mina and Jonathan taking photos of food

Movies pairing dracula and mina is so weird because if you want an vampire romance you can have that with very few alterations to the original story. You can have your angsty bad boy vampire, her name is Mina Murray. You can have your love interest who loves them despite their monstrosity, his name is Johnathan Harker

People have been talking about where Jonathan has been now, but let's talk about the others too.
-From April 16 to May 1 Mina Murray has learned that her boyfriend has passed his exams, she got engaged to him (maybe after his visit to her school), and kissed him goodbye. On May 2 she's probably thinking of writing a letter to Lucy because she misses her.
-Lucy Westenra is probably busy discreetly seeing a curly-haired man. Apparently, she's seen, because Mina later says that she heard rumors and wants all the deets.
-Arthur Holmwood is busy being rich and curly-haired.
-Jack Seward is to propose to Lucy soon. He's busy with his work as the asylum director, busy being fixated on a patient, busy being anxious about how his proposal will go because he relies on it going well to turn around a rather lonely, unhappy life.
-Quincey Morris is to propose to Lucy soon. He's sure if he emphasizes his Texasness he'll get a head start on his two friends. He's a little anxious but if she picks Arthur it won't be the end of the world, even if he likes her a lot.
-Abraham van Helsing is caught in a miserable routine. His life is an empty existence, he thinks. There's no future for old men. He's been hanging on to his love for his job for a long time now, but for how long?
-R. M. Renfield hasn't been okay in a while, but he can feel it. Something is happening, something will come to make all his dreams come true.
-Count Dracula is waiting for a young solicitor who can't speak the local language, who will be arriving any time now, and then all his ambitions will come true.

Mina is Dracula's archnemesis in so many ways, but the most obvious ones are
Mina was Dracula's very first adversary in England
Mina is personally hurt by him over the same man and the same woman
Dracula claims Jonathan. Mina promptly marries Jonathan
Mina is the only one that Dracula openly attacks with personal malice, in the most intimate ways
A single, glaring scar on the same place for both Mina and Dracula
Only these two share the same blood
Psychic link exists only between them
KIN OF MY KIN
Van Helsing hasn't even personally confronted the guy yet come on now

As a long-time fan of Stoker's book, Daily Dracula has me absolutely stoked because after decades of movie and TV adaptations slipping further and further from Stoker's work, and watering down Count Dracula's character into a generic romantic vampire and his enemies into milquetoast Victorian twats, the Internet is rediscovering that "Dracula" is really about a Victorian D&D party going full murderhobo on a megalomaniacal vampire supervillain as revenge for vamping their polycule sweetheart.
