Cottage by the sea
are you aware of what you’re putting me through right now tumblr? are you even AWARE? i grew up in a small seaside town called Whitby. Oh, never heard of it, well you WILL because it’s where a bunch of the action in your beloved Dracula is held.
ARE YOU AWARE OF WHAT ITS LIKE TO GROW UP IN THE PLACE DRACULA WAS SET???
all we ever DO is talk about dracula! I worked at the abbey and i learnt so MUCH history to do tour guides and nobody ever wanted to talk about it! they just wanted to talk about dracula! we have goth weekends where people come to whitby to dress up as goths! My primary school and both my secondary schools studied dracula in depth. There is a ‘dracula experience’ and it is NOT good but everyone and their mother wants to go to it when they come visit you. We had to put on dracula plays! we had to see dracula decorations! every b&b is dracula themed! we did a school trip as children to one of the dracula themed hotels in the town because everyone was obsessed with it! There are big dogs and people make dracula jokes! I used to play in the dracula grave yard after my campanology sessions and everyone just wanted to play dracula!
And I RAN AWAY. I left that life behind! I moved out of that town so nobody could ever say that stupid vampires name to me again!
But now it is like I cannot escape the hero’s call except the hero’s call is that STUPID BOOK. It won’t leave me alone. Will I ever be free? I cannot even be free on this website. I am doomed to dracula, haunted by him. I am crying. I am screaming. Look what you’ve done tumblr
