Draculicious!

Like Hardcore History, if it was 20 minutes long and exclusively about Dracula! Like You Must Remember This, if it was 20 minutes long and only covered Dracula! Seriously though, it has much in common with both of those heavyweights- a single voice with deep, deep subject knowledge and a good nose for the right anecdote to illuminate the whole of a rich, under-explored subject area. Dive in!

Starting strong; looking forward to more!

Coming from a place of love and extensive experience on the subject, this podcast promises to be an interesting, compelling deep-dive into... well, the entirety of the Dracula mythos. 🧛‍♂️ Also, extra points for mentioning short-lived extra-lurid British horror comic ‘Scream’ in the podcast’s intro episode! 👍😀
