LEMME TELL YOU BITCHES ABOUT MY GIRL CARMILLA
FOLKS FORGET ABOUT CARMILLA AND HER WONDERFUL LOVE STORY JUST BECAUSE SHE DOESN’T GET AS MUCH PUBLICITY AS OL’ DRAC BUT SHE’S AWESOME
SHE DOESN’T BURN IN SUNLIGHT BUT DOES WEAKEN CONSIDERABLY TO THE POINT OF FAINTING AND NEVER WAKES UP BEFORE NOON (MY SPIRIT MONSTER IS CARMILLA YO) AND WHEN SHE FEEDS FROM LAURA IT’S ALWAYS FROM HER LEFT BREAST. THAT’S STRAIGHT UP VICTORIAN EROTICA YO. SHE CAN TRANSFORM INTO A CAT AND INTO FOG, SIMILAR TO DRAC, AND HAS THIS LONG, BEAUTIFUL DARK HAIR.
YOU CAN READ THE WHOLE THING ONLINE IT’S OUT OF COPYRIGHT AND STUFF BUT HOLY SHIT A STORY ABOUT WOMEN IN THE 1800S THAT PASSES THE BECHDEL TEST WHAT????
GO. READ IT. IT’LL TAKE YOU BARELY AN HOUR AT MOST.
Yes, Your Highness /feels obligated to
1800-era lesbian vampires
alright then
Sounds interesting…might have to look into that.
BUT
It is now my sworn duty to direct everyone Polidori-wards. He wrote The Vampyre 78 years before Dracula (53 years before Carmilla). He’s credited with being the founder of the ‘erotic vampire’ genre. That’s right. Twilight…his fault. (But so is Interview With the Vampire).
Also, his memoirs about traveling around with Byron (I ship them pretty bad, I’m afraid) are hilarious. I laughed out loud a whole bunch. Seriously, worth reading.
