Pre-concieved -via popular culture- notions:
Thoughts so far: (48 kindle percent)
- Dracula was a ladies man with swag and arrogance
- Van Helsing was a rougishly handsome young man devoted to vampire hunting all his life
- Lucy Westernra was seduced by the Count
- Renfield was a misshapen bowed-back man with no personal hygiene.
- 'Dracula' would be an exciting read.
Thoughts so far: (48 kindle percent)
- Count Dracula is a almost weedy guy with a chinese-type long white beard (before regeneration)
- Van Helsing is the ultimate robust Professor from Holland stereotype
- Mina could turn out to be a bamf is she wasn't quite content to be demure
- ye gods Lucy's gotta be stunning to have all these guys fawning over her
- Renfield, for all his bouts of mania looks like a simple country bumpkin
- all of the narrator characters have so much Stiff-Upper-Lip Britishness that the book is dull
