Dracula’s Brides in Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992)

Imagine: a Karnstein/Vordenburg social season AU inspired by Bridgerton and More Than a Best Friend where the daughter of the late Baron is out for the season after her papa has died, but she’s more preoccupied with uncovering the “mysterious illness” sweeping through the ton than finding a husband.

"But dreams come through stone walls, light up dark rooms, or darken light ones, and their persons make their exits and their entrances as they please, and laugh at locksmiths."

—Carmilla by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu

Petition for someone to write a Carmilla-adjacent story about a Karnstein and a Vordenburg following the enemies to lovers trope because vampire/hunter reasons. #Karnsburg #Vordenstein

Instead of more “Dracula” and “Nosferatu” adaptations, how about an adaptation of “The Mysterious Stranger” by Karl von Wachsmann?
