*Me and the Dracula Daily girlies dragging Dacre Stoker to Bram Stoker's grave to apologize to his granduncle and the polycule*:
Don't read Dracula The Un-dead, but you can be horrified like me reading the plot on Wikipedia 🤢

Do I desperately want the folks in the #dracula daily tag to read Dracula the Un-dewd by Dacre Stoker and Ian Holt so I can get those hot takes and sweet memes?
Yes.

People have been dragging Dacre Stoker and rightfully so but I think the biggest offence is that Jack moonlights as a vampire hunter which sounds great but gets killed by a vampire like a red shirt and literally kicks off the entire dumb plot

So... have you checked out Dacre Stoker's... questionable continuations of Dracula? I read Dracula: The Un-dead out of morbid curiosity and I found it to be a good mix of incredibly frustrating and laughably bad. Haven't read Dracul, or anything else from him yet. Curious to know if you've dove into that rabbit hole and what your thoughts on it are?
[Spoilers: Name drop of a significant late novel character]
I've started both novels but haven't gotten very far in them, and I understand the ample and obvious reasons why they are not to many fans' tastes. One thing I do find endearing about Dracula: The UnDead though is, after seeing the ways that other authors of professional Dracula fanfiction seem to align themselves with specific characters (ex: Saberhagen with the Count and Newman with Seward), it is very cute to see Dacre aligning himself with Quincey Harker.

I’m still not over Dacre Stoker as a concept. Did this brother think that writing skill is passed down genetically, or what? Like even the most annoying academic I’ve seen and have basically zero respect for would write a much better “Dracula”-themed book because these bitches can at least tell what makes Stoker’s language and plot choices tick.

Stokerverse RPG on the way from Nightfall Games
A new RPG centring on Dracula and other creations of Bram Stokers is on the way

“This is a visceral Victorian environment with twists on classic characters and an authentic continuation of the original Dracula narrative,” says Chris.
The StokerVerse is the brainchild of international bestselling author Dacre…

First thoughts about ‘Dracula the Un-Dead’ novel by Dacre Stoker and Ian Holt:
I just opened up Dracula’s sequel, Dracula the Un-Dead by co-authors Dacre Stoker and Ian Holt. This novel is set about 25 years after the events of Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
I wanted to see what it is all about.
So here’s my first thoughts about the novel. (I only read up to 100th page, I will continue reading and sharing my thoughts in subsequent posts at a later date.)
This is 100% fanfic, written by Bram Stoker’s great-grand nephew and Ian Holt.
It is written in third person POV and it is in different writing style to the Bram Stoker’s Dracula, uses much more modern English language.
This is a letter from Mina Harker, to her son Quincey Harker, found in the prologue of the Dracula the Un-Dead novel.
Please notice Mina called Dracula “Prince Dracula”, this was not mentioned anywhere in the original novel.
In Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Mina was not involved with Dracula romantically nor it was hinted at, this was a new addition in the Dracula the Un-Dead novel.
.
The following images shows Dracula and Professor Van Helsing getting in a scuffle:
…really? Count Dracula tripped over his own cloak and knocked over a lamp table? I have never seen him stumble in the Bram Stoker’s Dracula novel.
.
Anyway, within the first few pages of reading the novel, I immediately came upon a scene which was not appropriate for young people.
Long story short: Dr Jack Seward saw Elizabeth Bathory brutally tortured and killed a young woman, then
“Yet nothing in the doctor's bleak past could have prepared him for the macabre scene he witnessed next. The young woman, pathetic gurgles issuing from her throat, was suspended above the edge of the empty mosaic bath. Bathory stood at the bottom; arms outstretched, neck arched back, magnificently naked. She turned her palms upward. It was a signal. In that instant, the dark-haired Woman in White used her fingernail to slit the young lady's throat and pushed her to the end of the track just above where Bathory waited. Seward saw Bathory's fanged mouth open wide as she orgasmically bathed in a shower of blood.”
I- wow. Just wow. I wouldn’t want to recommend this novel to ANYONE who loves reading Bram Stoker’s novel.
Rating: 2/5, purely for desecrating everything Bram Stoker’s Dracula stood for and made the characters unrecognisable.

I'm so glad to see a Quincey Harker story set in WW1 that doesn't make him born creepy and evil
Heck yeah! No evil or secretly Dracula's kid Quincey's here! Only a good lad who loves his slightly spooky parents and is slightly (more) spooky himself sometimes, but still has a heart of gold.

[same person from Dacre ask, and as a warning to anyone reading this ask will also contain mention of a significant late novel character in Dracula] I see! I found what they did to the main cast very frustrating, but admittedly did enjoy Quincey Harker as much as I could for that reason. Dacre himself seems like a neat man, so while I don't enjoy his original works I hold no ill feelings towards him. You've had interactions with him?
Yes! We've had a few exchanges on Facebook re: some of Stoker's sources and at one point I was briefly on a podcast with him. Fascinating guy all around.

gonna wait until dracula daily is over and then make dracula the undead daily solely because i think everything about that book would set the entirety of the internet on fucking fire (i mean, dracula’s performing shakespeare, elizabeth bathory is a major character and an evil lesbian, seward is a drug addict, jack the ripper is there and unmasking his identity is a major plotpoint, i think bram stoker is an actual character in this book written by, like, his grandson, the titanic shows up at the end, what more could you want)
