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.

  • I would throughly recommend this podcast. It's cast of great and the production is excellent. I am very annoyed when they change the text for whatever reason and I find the content warnings annoying but otherwise highly recommended

  • How did y'all get into this one? I can't figure out which episode should be first. I think I may have jumped in partway through, which explains why I never really understood what was going on. I only lasted for a handful of episodes, then gave up.

  • Best Dracula adaptation. I'm signed up for the emails but fell behind last year, so my mom and I binge-listened to these on a road trip. I know the point is to listen on the days that they "happened" but it was great fun regardless. A literary classic turned into an audio-drama with a fantastic cast. It always managed to pull me in and make me feel the full weight of each moment, despite my chronic exposure to Dracula memes. Great work :)

  • Beautifully Done

    One fantastically polished production team plus one stupendously talented voice acting cast brings together what I would have to call the single most gripping reimagining of a well-loved if dusty classic story. To rave about the episodes which have come out this far (chronologically in the fashion of Dracula Daily) would mean writing a Dracula-length novel myself. My friends and family are sick to un-death of hearing my recommendation of starting Re: Dracula. Please do yourself a favor and give ... more

  • Great project

    It really works.

    The trigger warnings (‘contains mental health ableism’ before asylum episodes) are ludicrous. Don’t listen to horror stories if you’re triggered by the mention of madness. Incidentally, there are plenty warnings for racial stereotypes - this being a Victorian novel - but none for sexism. Being woke doesn’t extend to noticing slights to women.
