**Re: Dracula**

Re: Dracula takes the famous horror tale, breaks it up chronologically (every entry of this epistolary novel has a date), and sends the story directly to your podcatcher as it happens. Every time something happens to the characters, Re: Dracula will publish an episode, in as close to real time as it happens. Some entries will be brief, and others will be long and intense.

Hannah sits down with Dr. Jen Sudgen to discuss the ideals of Victorian Class and Gender, and how they come across in Dracula.

You'll hear our beloved Jonathan Harker (Ben Galpin) in it!
Check out Fawx & Stallion, a comedy podcast about rivalry, friendship, fame, and occasionally about solving mysteries! It's set in London, 1889. When the residents of 221B Baker Street leave town for the weekend to solve one of their most famous cases, no one is left to clear a poor housekeeper’s name of a crime she didn’t commit. Well, no one except for their neighbors at 224B…

Bonus 1: Hot Vampire Hunters in Your Area! Nov 08, 2024

Show notes

In our first bonus episode, Hannah sits down with two vampire hunters in a very serious interview exploring the real life implications of real life vampires. This episode was hosted by Hannah Wright and edited by Tal Minear. The transcript was done by Rook Mogavero. This episode was originally published on April 1, so you can be sure that there's no shenanigans here. None at all.

The transcript is here.

Are we far enough into the show notes yet? Look away if you haven't listened to the episode yet! Alright... April Fools! I suspect you caught on, but these are not real life vampire hunters. Or vampires. We think. In this silly bonus episode, Helvetica was played by Brooke Jennett, a brilliant voice actor and producer on the excellent horror anthology podcast Thirteen (fans of horrifying audio drama, you have to check it out). Drakkon was played by Mason Amadeus, cohost of the nonfiction podcast Digital Folklore, and one third of the hilarious comedy show PodCube(if you want more ridiculous improv like this episode, PodCube’s the show for you). Our serious bonus episodes will start, along with the first of our letters from our good friend Jonathan Harker, on May 3.
