"Few creatures of the night have captured our imagination like vampires.
What explains our enduring fascination with vampires? Is it the overtones of sexual lust, power, control? Or is it a fascination with the immortality of the undead?"

Feel free to post any vampire-related content here. I'll be posting various vampire media I enjoy just as a way of kickstarting this community but don't let that stop you from posting something else. I just wanted a place to discuss vampire movies, books, games, etc.

It looks like the play wasn't filmed, unfortunately. (wtf?) However, Gorey did several Dracula book illustrations that are also available in toy-theater form: https://www.themarginalian.org/2013/07/22/edward-gorey-dracula/
