It is nice how people don't want you to be eaten by a vampire, Jonathan. RME #Dracula

October 20th, Blog post:
Truth, Beauty, Freedom, and Books: Weekend Cooking: Food in DRACULA: "I don't drink... wine." It's not that I pay particular attention to food mentions in books (honest), but in some novels...

Now Renfield's eating stuff! I used to call my dog Renfield bc he'd eat bugs. #dracula

That's a dang wordy newspaper report. #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 21, 2012
I really don't care about what happened on the Demeter. Saw this part in the movie. :p #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 21, 2012
Okay, we get it, the dog, the spookiness. #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 22, 2012
Dr. Seward "came too" or "came to" while Renfield was raving? Because if he came too that's pretty gross. #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 23, 2012
" 'Good boy!' said van Helsing." So I guess treating people like dogs is a theme in this book? #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 24, 2012
Do we think Dr. Seward was based on Arthur Conan-Doyle? haha #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 24, 2012
Wait, why are we giving Lucy morphine? Because it'll slow the vampire down? #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 24, 2012
Don't play with the medicine, Lucy! I know you have the IQ of a cocker spaniel. <----Van Helsing #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 24, 2012
Drink whenever someone's compared to a dog. #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 25, 2012
I seriously doubt a Texan would say, 'Is not that so?' Try, 'Isn't that right?' buddy. #dracula #bramstokerclearlydidntknowanytexans
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 25, 2012
Guys, Alan Cumming is awesome. I love how he says, "DOOM" and "BAT!" And all other words. #dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 25, 2012
"I looooooooooooooove to laugh! Ha ha ha ha ha!" <---Van Helsing. #dracula

"I made up all the trains to & from Exeter so that I may help Jonathan in case he's in a hurry." GOOD LORD WOMAN how bored are you? #Dracula

What sharp teeth you have... #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 27, 2012
Seward, you think EVERYONE is mad. Doctor heal thyself. #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 27, 2012
Arthur gets his rocks off by "driving a stake" in to Lucy eh? Really. Really. Gross. #Dracula :X
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 27, 2012
I'm going to write fanfic where Mina and Seward get it on. #theybothwritejournals #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 28, 2012
"He's such a good man." *dies* Mina and Seward are so in love. #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 28, 2012
"She walked in with an easy gracefulness that would at once command the respect of any lunatic." LMAO #Dracula They're so in love.
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 28, 2012
@heidenkind But of course!
— Chrisbookarama (@chrisbookarama) October 29, 2012
Uh-oh, Mina's emotional. Vampire baby! Vampire baby! #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 29, 2012
Nice of Dracula to tell Mina how many times he's sucked her blood. #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 31, 2012
Mmm, yes, the spurting blood. Clearly she hasn't seen any of that action from Jonathan. #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 31, 2012
Van Helsing's all, "Heck, I'd be happy to kill you right now! The only thing stopping me is that you'd turn into a vampire." Jerk. #dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) October 31, 2012
The misogyny in this book is starting to annoying me. RUN AWAY WITH THE COUNT, MINA! #Dracula

Where did Jonathan learn how to street fight with a knife? #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 1, 2012
@cathypegau He's too lame to watch Westside Story. :p
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 1, 2012
@cathypegau Uhg, he's so annoying.
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 1, 2012
@chrisbookarama But not where it counts. Too bad, Mina!
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 1, 2012
The ending I want to see from this book: Jonathan dies fighting the count and Mina and Dr. Seward get married. #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 1, 2012
I uploaded a @youtube video youtu.be/GOrgKcI1Ivs?a #Dracula sent by mail.

"I suppose it must have come in the night and matured without my knowing." Like a VAMPIRE BABY! #Dracula

Aw, Dr Seward thinks Mina has a brilliant mind. <333 #dracula #soinlove

Have fun playing knights in shining armor in Transylvania, boys. #dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 2, 2012
@amydenim Only if you're turning into a vampire. #dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 2, 2012
Wasn't Jonathan bitten by a vampire, too? So why is Mina turning into a vampire and he isn't? #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 2, 2012
Jonathan's not the one being turned into a vampire, Mina. #Dracula #poorJonathanmyass
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 3, 2012
How can there not be any fanfic shipping Mina and Dr. Seward? I'm so disappointed in you, internet. #Dracula #soinlove
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 3, 2012
@mjmbecky I might. There's even a fanfic pairing Mina and Renfield (ew ew ew), but no Dr. Seward! WTF??? #internetfail
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 3, 2012
@readingthrunite I have.
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 3, 2012
@readingthrunite I had to check. No, except for the Asylum scenes, I thought it was kind of boring.
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 3, 2012
@ladybedivere I looked at the major fanfic sites and literally nothing. :(
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 4, 2012
Sad. I'm depressed now. DEPRESSED. *slams away from desk* #Dracula
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 3, 2012
Only an hour left in #Dracula! Very excited.

@heidenkind Haven't they stuck a stakein that guy yet?
— Chrisbookarama (@chrisbookarama) November 5, 2012
@heidenkind Yeah,I didn't prefer it. I may have told you before? It's like "Christ haven't any of these fools heard of a vampire before."
— Walker (@anaraug) November 5, 2012
@anaraug I enjoyed Dracula more, but I don't think I would have gotten through it if I wasn't listening to it on audio.
— Tasha B. (@heidenkind) November 5, 2012
Uhg. That ending bummed me out. I guess I can take comfort in the fact that Quincy became a vampire baby named QuinSewGodaHelsing. #Dracula
