BREAKDOWN

DRACULA: A FEMINIST REVENGE FANTASY, REALLY

SEEKING:

[DOCTOR VAN HELSING] Black/African American, She/Her, Late 30s - Late 40s. American. A female vampire hunter. She takes no crap from anybody. She is badass– and 19th century men do not, as a rule, appreciate it. She takes up space in any room. Wit and sarcasm are second nature to her.

[DRACULA] White/Caucasian, He/Him, Late 30s – Mid 40s. A physically imposing man. He is.... extremely confident. Strong. Funny. Charming. Sexy. You’d like him, reader - no, really, you would. While he has all the charisma in the world, he is also unpredictable, fierce, and dangerous. Standard British/RP or Eastern European.

[MINA HARKER] Mixed/Biracial/Asian/Black, She/Her, Late 20s - Mid 30s. Very smart. Caring. Loyal. Wants to do the right thing. She is someone who is very aware of what is respectable and correct in society and acts accordingly, especially around the men; and she also harbors a deep desire to run wild with Lucy. Standard British/RP dialect.
