Well, wow who knew the real truth of what’s it’s like to be a screenwriter?!? TY for sharing this, reading it was like a in depth version of a behind the scenes episode at the end of TWD or something. GREAT read! My hubby and I just finished watching your show not knowing it was 10 years old, my husband and I laughed, cried (me at least)…

My hubby and I just finished watching your show not knowing it was 10 years old, my husband and I laughed, cried (me at least) and bit our nails wondering what would happen next. When Mina would realize Dracula was meant to be with HIM not Johnathan. For what it’s worth we thought the show was spectacular! BRAVO NOT too much blood, it’s a vampire show for God sales! It was sexy, scary, exciting and WE WANT MORE! To my horror I realized too late that there would be no second season. We would never get to see Mina and Dracula 🧛 in a new stage of their relationship in your adaptation. Sad, doing research on as to why is how I found this blog of sorts. You probably will never see me message bc I’m always late to the tv game as we like to binge a show (I forget and have to rewatch before a 2nd season). I was praying it was on another network (we watched it on AMC+) and I’m sorry Mr. Smiley gave you such a hard time. Just Know there’s a special place in the 6th circle of hell for him for ruining who knows how many shows we would have loved. All I can say is trust yourself! You are an incredible writer and we completely adored your version of Dracula.

-Lovers of the macabre,
Brie & Chris McD.
Thank you!
I'm so glad you enjoyed the series, Brie and Chris. And that you found your way to this Substack. I hope it illuminated for you some of the reasons why the series didn't move forward. There's a lot more on here about the "DRACULA" experience, if you go digging. This is a good summary of all the articles: https://colehaddon.substack.com/p/a-monthlong-celebration-of-the-complete?utm_source=publication-search
