Drac

I haven't finished this because quite honestly I'm bored of it.
It moves too slowly for me. Way too slowly.

However the gothic themes are very prominent here. The settings like castles, abbies, mental asylum etc. are very haunting with a lot of relation to religion which is interesting.
The protagonist, the count, is very typically gothic. Intelligent, physically strinking, non-human, powerful, foreign etc.
Female victim is also very typical: beautiful, young, naive, virgin. I have a feeling Mina will also become a victim too, but she isn't as typical as Lucy, more clever and experienced.
