#Dracula

This is how far I am in this chunkster of a book. I‘m still at it. Because the book is so valuable it doesn‘t go on work trips. And it‘s not broken into chapters but only into 3
Parts, I have to find loads of time to sit down with it. So I may be reading about Count Draculitz through Christmas at this rate!!

Sparklemn I‘m looking forward to your review! Might be something I‘ll decide to tackle someday. 🙂 3d

I hate read #DraculaDaily though not daily because I would give up again. I'm rating this purely as a reading experience.

Some parts of this were good, some were horrendous, and others were boring.

Faranae I will never get over how unsubtle the metaphor of Lucy's empty veins piiiiiiiining for Arthur's blood is. 1w

Silent vampire classic with a small orchestra was an eerie & fun Halloween treat. The skilled silent filmmakers ripped off Stoker back in the day, but it made my husband want to read Stoker's classic, which he's seen me read twice. #film #vampire #Dracula

SamAnne What a wonderful experience! Many years ago an old Episcopalian cathedral in Spokane WA would host a silent horror movie with live music played on the ginormous church organ! I saw both Noferatu and Mephistopheles before the party-pooping conservatives in the church put the vanish on it. It was amazing. 1w

I‘m surprised I got SEVEN on this list, as someone who‘s really not into scary/creepy/horror! The three on the left are favorites from this list (although I was surprised to see Name of the Rose on there!). The three on the right I‘ve read the book and watched one or more movie adaptations. With Dracula and The Dead Zone, I enjoyed the book more, but Hitchcock‘s Rebecca tops both the book & the recent movie version for me!

lil1inblue That's a good list! 🌟 2w
dabbe Fab list! Have you seen the 1940s REBECCA? It's an all-time fave of mine. Thanks for playing and sharing. 🧡💜💛 2w
BarbaraJean @dabbe Yes!!! It was the first Hitchcock film I ever saw. I watched it years before reading the book—and I still think it's better than the book 🫣🤫🤭 2w
dabbe @BarbaraJean I think you're right! 💛🩷🧡 2w
