Get yer semi-daily Dracula fix here!

Dracula was written as an epistolary novel, where the story is presented as a series of documents. I'm breaking it up into a serial format using the date stamps on these documents to follow the actual time frame of the story. The twist is that we're six months off... mainly because I really wanted to do this right now now now and the actual novel doesn't start until May. More details on the project here.

The entries are not completely regular, so there will be some days with no posts and some with multiple. In the absence of a time stamp I will set posts to go up in the early AM.

2 November, morning. Mina Harker's Journal. (backdated)


2 November, morning. -- I was successful, and we took turns driving all night; now the day is on us, bright though cold. There is a strange heaviness in the air -- I say heaviness for want of a better word; I mean that it oppresses us both. It is very cold, and only our warm furs keep us comfortable. At dawn Van Helsing hypnotised me; he says I answered

darkness, creaking wood and roaring water,

so the river is changing as they ascend. I do hope that my darling will not run any chance of danger -- more than need be; but we are in God's hands.
