This Is One of the Only Scary Stories That Actually Scared Me "This is one of the only scary stories that actually scared me. This is quite a long book, so I decided to make it in 5 parts. The next 15 questions will come out soon! Test your memory and see how much you remember." 1. Chapter 1: Jonathan Harker's Journal-Where is Mr. Harker travelling to in the beginning of the novel? Budapest Borgo Pass Bucharest Bistritz 2. True or false: When Harker arrived at the lodge, he received a note from Count Dracula himself. True False 3. The horses were driven by "a tall man with a long brown beard." At first what was the only part of his face that Harker could see? his teeth his nose his ears his eyes 4. We now arrive at Dracula's castle. The door is answered by "a tall old man, clean shaven save for a long white moustache, and clad in black from head to foot, without a single speck of colour about him anywhere." What was it about this man that reminded Harker of the carriage driver? his ears his eyes his grip his teeth 5. A couple of nights later, Harker can't sleep much, so he decides to shave. He is startled by Count Dracula due to the fact that he could not see his reflection in the mirror. At the time he was startled, he cut his chin with the razor. How did Dracula react when he saw the blood? He did nothing He tried to hypnotize him He made a grab for his throat He moved slowly toward him 6. Harker suspected for some time that there were no servants in the castle. What did Harker see Dracula doing that confirmed this thought? making dinner he brought Harker dinner himself working around the castle making the bed 7. Several times Dracula told Harker to sit down and write letters to his friends and loved ones to let them know how he is. When Harker was asked to write letters a second time, Dracula had to calculate for a second and chose 3 dates in the month of June. What was the final date? June 21 June 25 June 30 June 29 8. We come to June 29. This was supposed to be the last day of Harker's life--from what he calculated in the letters. The Count came to him and informed him that they must separate the following day. What did Harker say to that? He was allright with the idea He wanted to leave that night He didn't want to leave at all He wanted to leave the following week 9. After all this, Harker desperately tries to find the key. He decides to try and find the Count, which he does. He had just finished a meal, considering the blood that was all over him in his coffin. Harker is absolutely repulsed by this sight, and tries to find something to rid the earth of this horrible being. What is it that he finds? a shovel a gun a knife a chain 10.

One night, Lucy sleepwalks and goes to a bench in front of a church. Who sees this and sees a dark figure over her? Mina Lucy's mother Arthur Lucy's father 13. Shortly after this, Lucy's fiance tells Dr. Seward of Lucy's failing illness and asks him to see her. Dr. Seward decides that it is probably something mental, and asks for Professor Van Helsing to come from Amsterdam. How does Dr. Seward know Van Helsing? met at a physicians' convention old friend they were colleagues once Seward treated Van Helsing once 14. In the time following Van Helsing's visit to Lucy, her health had deteriorated immensely. Van Helsing had been asked by Dr. Seward to return to London, which is what he did. Upon seeing her, he exclaimed: "My god! This is dreadful. There is not time to be lost. She will die for sheer want of blood to keep the heart's action as it should be. There must be a transfusion of blood at once." How many transfusions did Lucy have before the night was over? three one two four 15. After Lucy dies, Dr. Seward says that there is peace for her at last. Van Helsing says that it is only the beginning. He is the first one to suspect Dracula.

He agreed with him He didn't believe him He was indifferent to the idea He didn't know what to think TEST 2 Introduction "This is part 2 of my quiz on the novel "Dracula" by Bram Stoker.

    01:510:255:90 DRACULA — FACTS & FICTIONS Winter Session 2018 Professor Stephen W. Reinert (History) COURSE FORMAT The course content and assessment components (discussion forums, examinations) are fully delivered online. COURSE OVERVIEW & GOALS Everyone's heard of “Dracula” and knows who he was (or is!), right? Well ... While it's true that “Dracula” — aka “Vlad III Dracula” and “Vlad the Impaler” — are household words throughout the planet, surprisingly few have any detailed comprehension of his life and times, or comprehend how and why this particular historical figure came to be the most celebrated vampire in history. Throughout this class we'll track those themes, and our guiding aims will be to understand: (1) “what exactly happened” in the course of Dracula's life, and three reigns as prince (voivode) of Wallachia (1448; 1456-62; 1476); (2) how serious historians can (and sometimes cannot!) uncover and interpret the life and career of “The Impaler” on the basis of surviving narratives, documents, pictures, and monuments; (3) how and why contemporaries of Vlad Dracula launched a project of vilifying his character and deeds, in the early decades of the printed book; (4) to what extent Vlad Dracula was known and remembered from the late 15th century down to the 1890s, when Bram Stoker was writing his famous novel ultimately entitled Dracula; (5) how, and with what sources, Stoker constructed his version of Dracula, and why this image became and remains the standard popular notion of Dracula throughout the world; and (6) how Dracula evolved as an icon of 20th century popular culture, particularly in the media of film and the novel.

Despite its gothic trappings and origin in sensationalist fiction, Bram Stoker's Dracula, written in 1897, is a novel that looks forward. At the turn of the nineteenth century, Britons found themselves in a world of new possibilities and new perils –in a society rapidly advancing through imperialist explorations and scientific discoveries while attempting to cling to traditional institutions, men and woman struggled to make sense of the new cultural order. The genre of invasion literature, speaking to the fear of Victorian society becoming tainted by the influence of some creeping foreign Other, proliferated at the turn of the century, and Stoker's threatening depictions of the Transylvanian Count Dracula resonated with his readers. Stoker’s text has continued to resonate with readers, as further social and scientific developments in our modern world allow more and more opportunities to read allegories into the text.

  • 'Nosferatu' Revisted
    Fewster: 'Nosferatu' Revisted What is it about the Dracula narrative that is attractive dramatically? Its format is hardly exciting in that it is written as a series of letters. Similarly what could one possibly do in a theatrical production that has not been done? This would form the key research question that underlined my own subsequent production i.e. how does one approach such a classic? Indeed, when I ran a research seminar on the intended production, I was met with initial scepticism and resistance with a general response of “Why bother?” This is a fair question when one considers the plethora of dramatic renditions on stage and screen, in particular the ubiquitous vampire television series. Ultimately the answer to this question could only be explored through practice: textual in adapting the script, and physical in rehearsing the play. The capacity for Dracula and the vampires to turn into—variously—wolves, bats, rats and from smoke into the flesh of the living dead stimulated my creative thinking about how one might stage these transformations. I also began to imagine how an audience might literally follow the story’s protagonist, Jonathan Harker and his journey to Transylvania and back through everyday spaces such as corridors, café, paths and old buildings on the University Campus where I work. I re-read the Stoker novel and re-examined the two German films Nosferatu (1922 Dir. Friedrich Murnau) and the remake: Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979 Dir. Werner Herzog). As a playwright, I chose these sources for two reasons: I did not want to overload my creative sensibility with too much source material and the novel and the 1922 film are in my view historically the key transmitters of the Dracula fable.

But one that for thy crime must fall, The youngest, most beloved of all, Shall bless thee with a father's name --- That word shall wrap thy heart in flame! Yet must thou end thy task, and mark Her cheek's last tinge, her eye's last spark, And the last glassy glance must view Which freezes o'er its lifeless blue; Then with unhallow'd hand shalt tear The tresses of her yellow hair, Of which in life a lock when shorn, Affection's fondest pledge was worn, But now is borne away by thee, Memorial of thine agony! from Lord Byron’s The Giaour (1812) ii ABSTRACT Long before Dracula was terrorizing English families, Emily Brontë’s Heathcliff captivated Victorian audiences.

  • Step 1. Place Garlic Near Every Entrance of the Room. This Will Keep Him Away. Step 2. Hold Onto a Cross Or Other Religious Symb
    Step 1. Place garlic near every entrance of the room. This will keep him away. Step 2. Hold onto a cross or other religious symbol. He will not touch you as long as you keep it on your person. Step 3. Wait until sunrise. His powers will be nulled then and only during the day. Step 4. Place a wild rose stem and holy water on his coffin lid. This will prevent escape. Step 5. Drive a wooden stake into his heart Step 6. Decapitate the un-dead fiend. What a horrible night to have a curse, and what a wonderful night to bring back Creature Feature! After my Molyneaux meltdown in the last Creature Feature, I promised everyone a creature feature on the Prince of Darkness, himself. The Immortal Count. Nosferatu. The Impaler. The Night Walker. Vlad. The Vamp. That’s absolutely right! Today, I will be covering Count Dracula! You got your wooden stakes and crosses? Then, let us go out this evening for pleasure; the night is still young. Now, I should preface this by stating that the character of Count Dracula is NOT exclusive to video games. In fact, he didn’t even originate in the young form of media! The Count has his twisted roots in an actual person, a man named Vlad III of Wallachia—which is currently known as Romania. Vlad “Dracula” Tepes was a sadistic voivode (voy-vood), the equivalent of a prince. He was known for, among other things, impaling his victims on stakes slowly and painfully. This practice, meant to strike fear into any potential invaders and enemies, earned him the nickname “The Impaler”.
