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.

We want to thank the folks who donated their work to the TTRPG bundle we used in crowdfunding! You can find all games on itch:
This Game Takes Place in Dracula's Castle by Jack Blair ($5). In this game, one of you is Dracula, the other is Jonathan Harker. You'll draw cards and answer prompts about moments where courtesy fails you in a precarious situation. Tension will build as you pull blocks from a tower. Will you get out without giving in to the monster?
Love/Hate Relationship: A 2 Player Dracula Based Letter Writing RPG by Tal Minear ($5). This game imagines what it would be like if Jonathan Harker and R. M. Renfield had a correspondence during the events of Dracula. One player writes as Jonathan, and the other writes as Renfield. Step into their shoes, build a story, and explore a lighter or darker ending to Dracula.
Four Sherlock Holmes and a Vampire (Who Is Also One of the Aforementioned Sherlock Holmes) by Andrew J. Young ($2). In this game, four players play four Sherlock Holmes who team up to solve mysteries and one-up each other. Secretly, one or more Sherlock Holmes may be vampires. Can the four Sherlock Holmes find out who among them could be a creature of the night?
I Want Your Bite by Rue Dickey ($10). In this game, a mysterious bachelor has recently purchased the manor house overlooking the town. They're in the process of starting a new life, and rumour has it they're looking for a partner. Compete against your fellow players for the chance at immortal love - a place by the Vampire's side.

Bonus 1: Hot Vampire Hunters in Your Area!
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.

Customer Reviews
Every part of this has been amazing!
This is the third time I’ve read Dracula, and the second year in a row I’ve subscribed to Dracula Daily. That’s to say, I was already familiar with the story and wasn’t sure I saw the need for a podcast… until I started listening. Re: Dracula added such a new dimension to the story that I’ve been HOOKED in a way I’ve never been before. The voice acting, music, and sound design are all so thoughtfully and impressively done, and I have gotten attached to the characters in a whole new way. I’ve convinced several friends to listen with me (some of whom were familiar with Dracula and some not), and now that we’re coming to the end of the story, it’s all we talk about. Thanks for a great show, y’all.
The best adaptation of Dracula. Period.
There is no series, no creative endeavor, no ANYTHING that remotely compares to the amount of love, talent, and understanding of the actual story and characters of Dracula than this podcast. It’s not just rote recitals of the lines, not just an audiobook with an angle. This cast and crew dedicated itself to finally giving this novel the overdue justice it deserves.
Not a horror genre fan but loved this podcast
I had never read Dracula and I’m grateful that this was my first experience. The voice actors are amazing. Thank you for making this a free (with ads) experience. I’m brimming with anticipation and predictions for the ending!! Thank you all again.
