The characters in Dracula, especially the females, conform to society as they do not meddle in other people’s business and the men go out to work.…

    In Bram Stoker’s, Dracula, we see the New Woman first being introduced to the reader by the three women that Jonathan Harken encounters in Count Dracula’s castle. Mina and Lucy are a representation of the good, traditional Victorian women in comparison to those three women. In her article "Bram Stoker 's Dracula and Late-Victorian Advertising Tactics: Earnest Men, Virtuous Ladies, and Porn", Tanya Pikula argues that “Dracula not only functions as a ‘kind of ‘test-bed’ for competing arguments and sensibilities,’ but it reflects the ways in which its society’s ambivalent responses to consumerism and advertising were repeatedly elaborated through models of femininity and female sexuality”. I strongly disagree with because I do no think that the…

    The novel Dracula written by Bram Stoker’s has countless adaptations due to Stoker’s unique construction of the monstrous character Count Dracula. These adaptations include movies, television series, parodies, novels, video games, and comic books. At first impression of the film I thought the director and screen play writer did a satisfactory job alongside keeping the film similar to the original writings, although there are some differences.

Dr. Van Helsing swears that the best thing is to provide a blood transfusion on Lucy, although in the novel this is a process that goes on four times but, in the…
