Does anyone else find it kinda mind blowing that Dracula is from 1897 and Frankenstein is from 1818?
Like, now they’re just kind of smooshed together in the collective consciousness as foundational 19th Century gothic horror texts, but there was 79 freakin’ years between their release! In 20th century movie terms, that’s like the distance between The Sinking Of The Lusitania and Austin Powers!
