Beau Brummel
Ordinarily, insulting royalty is not likely to do much for a man's reputation - but for Captain George Brummell, it does wonders.

The Prince, far from being offended, instead welcomes the change of pace, having long since grown tired of being surrounded by yes-men and spineless courtiers - though the Prince's friendship, beneficial as it may be, has unforeseen consequences for Brummell.

Voices of Dracula - Involuntary Madness
In writing Dracula, Bram Stoker created a universe full of rich characters, dark and foreboding locations, and a tangled web of loyalties, relationships and motivations. Despite the story being fictional -at least one hopes that’s the case - many elements within the story were reflections and analogies of the Stoker family and their history.
A little over 120 years after the book’s original release, Bram’s great-grandnephew Dacre Stoker has teamed up with author Chris McAuley to create a series of short stories set within the StokerVerse, each narrated from the point of view of one of the characters we all know - or think we know - so well.
In this episode, we gain a major insight into what drove Renfield into Dr. Seward’s asylum, as well as hearing a warning he has for the people of London - but will anyone listen, or will it go unheeded?
If you’re a fan of vampires - particularly those of a more gothic nature - then these brand-new adventures will surely appeal to you. With Dacre Stoker’s major contribution, these stories are the most significant addition to the official Dracula canon since Francis Ford Coppola’s 1992 film Bram Stoker’s Dracula.

Voices of Dracula - A Woman Scorned
In writing Dracula, Bram Stoker created a universe full of rich characters, dark and foreboding locations, and a tangled web of loyalties, relationships and motivations. Despite the story being fictional -at least one hopes that’s the case - many elements within the story were reflections and analogies of the Stoker family and their history.
A little over 120 years after the book’s original release, Bram’s great-grandnephew Dacre Stoker has teamed up with author Chris McAuley to create a series of short stories set within the StokerVerse, each narrated from the point of view of one of the characters we all know - or think we know - so well.
In this episode, Mina is in danger of becoming Dracula’s latest victim. Will she be able to escape his power and take her vengeance?
If you’re a fan of vampires - particularly those of a more gothic nature - then these brand-new adventures will surely appeal to you. With Dacre Stoker’s major contribution, these stories are the most significant addition to the official Dracula canon since Francis Ford Coppola’s 1992 film Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
