CoreyHOST
Yeah.
CoreyHOST
That I'm like, I'm just not into Frankenstein like I am Dracula.
CoreyHOST
So, you know, Eggers being like, this is the thing that my whole life has been about is making this movie.
CoreyHOST
And then Guillermo del Toro doing the same thing with his life, but for Frankenstein.
AlanHOST
On the Marvel side, for superhero horror, he had The Immortal Hulk.
AlanHOST
And for straight horror, Billy, be ready to do some promotion here again, okay? Tomb of Dracula.
Billy DeeGUEST
I love I was Joe and Scott West and I are just about we have four episodes left to finish off the regular series, hopefully by the end of twenty twenty six, because at that point it would have taken four years.
Billy DeeGUEST
But that's OK.
5 MINS LATER
AlanHOST
So for each genre, I'm going to report back what I've been reading in those categories the last few years.
AlanHOST
Over the last four Octobers, my Horror Month reading has included, and we should start with the classic characters, although kind of modern, sorry.
AlanHOST
It's from Zenoscope, Van Helsing versus Dracula 1 through 5. from dynamite vampirella versus dracula one through six
Billy DeeGUEST
vampirella is a big blind spot for me i have zero magazines i have zero issues no matter what era or publisher i've seen some of the artwork and the one artist that i think did some work in there tom sutton big fan of tom sutton he was his horror output is just off the chain even even for charlton comics who sometimes lacks having a good, solid artists on their work.
Rob HaldenHOST
I do enjoy getting to do a little theme.
Rob HaldenHOST
I mean, admittedly, as the years go by, finding these themed episodes, sometimes you think, "Oh, is it, is it gonna get harder and harder?" Um, but I think Blade Trinity, considering we did Blade way back, one of our earliest episodes, that first Blade movie.
Will PrestonHOST
That must've been our first year of, like-
Rob HaldenHOST
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Samuel Smalls Jr.HOST
Mm-hmm.
Oscar MontoyaGUEST
It's Dracula in the hood.
Oscar MontoyaGUEST
Pre- pretty much that's, that's the premise of it.
Samuel Smalls Jr.HOST
Mm-hmm.
Brian CottingtonHOST
Yeah.
Brian CottingtonHOST
What, what, what if, uh, I don't know, Dracula actually drank blood and we saw the blood on his face?
John WooliscroftHOST
What if, yeah.
Brian CottingtonHOST
But yeah, like the idea of vampires with fangs came from- And from a Hammer film.
Brian CottingtonHOST
And it wasn't until I really thought about it and I re-watched it again, I'm like, "Yeah, no, you're 100% right."
John WooliscroftHOST
Yeah.
Brian CottingtonHOST
This is Horror of Dracula, uh, and [laughs] you know, it- it's- it's all of that.
Brian CottingtonHOST
I mean, there's even elements of, uh, uh...
Jose BolanosPANELIST

the character Dracula had a much more old school approach to home security.

Interesting thing, in both Frankenstein and, well, Dracula as the vampire went on to inspire, would both become adopted by Universal Studios, along with the Wolfman, the Mummy, the Invisible Man, and, and the Creature from the Black Lagoon.
Carter RoySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
So I guess in some ways, the volcanic winter was the birth of Universal Studios.

John KachubaGUEST

John KachubaGUEST
So yeah, I was in Romania, and I, I visited those various sites, which y- you know, for clarification, I mean, um, Dracula, of course, is a, is a fictional character, right? We know that.
John KachubaGUEST
But he was kind of based on, uh, a, a Wallachian prince of the 15th century named Vlad, Vlad Tepes, and nicknamed Vlad the Impaler because that was his favorite way of getting rid of people, impaling them on a post.
