Dracula: The Un-Dead

In Dracula: The Un-Dead, Quincey Harker uncovers dark family secrets while pursuing his acting dreams, only to face a shocking murder that changes everything.

Set in 1912, Dracula: The Un-Dead serves as an official sequel to Bram Stoker's iconic novel, penned by his direct descendant and supported by the Stoker family. The narrative unfolds twenty-five years after the original events, focusing on Dr. Jack Seward, now a disgraced morphine addict, who embarks on a quest to hunt vampires across Europe. His journey is aided by a mysterious benefactor, adding an intriguing layer to his character's descent into darkness. Meanwhile, Quincey Harker, the son of Jonathan and Mina, leaves behind his law studies to chase his dreams in the theatrical world of London's Lyceum Theatre.

The Lyceum is currently staging a production of Dracula, originally directed by Bram Stoker, but has recently lost its leading actor. Quincey, leveraging his connections, manages to bring in the renowned Hungarian actor Basarab to take over the lead role. As rehearsals progress, Quincey uncovers unsettling truths about the play, which eerily mirrors his parents' past and the secrets they've kept hidden. Just as he begins to confront these revelations, a shocking event occurs: Jonathan Harker is found murdered.

The authors of Dracula: The Un-Dead have meticulously woven in elements from Bram Stoker's original notes, resurrecting characters and plotlines that were previously omitted from the first publication. This sequel not only pays homage to its predecessor but also expands the Dracula lore in a way that resonates with fans and newcomers alike.
