No more details save that it's a porcine parody of Bram Stoker's Dracula, one might presume it is an anthropomorphic cartoon pig take on the vampire legend Steaks through the heart maybe?

The films starring Frankenstein, Creature, Wolf Man, Dracula, and more have influenced not only every horror film to come after, but film in general in more ways than can be recounted here Yet before this past February's The Invisible Man, it has been nearly impossible to get the Universal Monsters back on the screen in[...]

Netflix's Castlevania has been making up for lost time ahead of its return to the streaming service on Thursday, March 5. We've seen the official poster

It's tough to argue that the BBC gave Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat's limited series Dracula a definitive ending when you're talking about a character who has a habit of coming back to life Which raises the obvious question about the three-episode series: so when are we getting a second season?

Tonight, we got the second episode of BBC One's Dracula adaptation, based on Bram Stoker's classic novel, from Steven Moffat, Mark Gatiss and Sue Vertue But how 'based' is it?

Tonight saw the debut of the first episode of the new BBC adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula, from Steven Moffat, Mark Gatiss and Sue Vertue It was everything it needed to be and so much more Minor spoilers before, holding fire on the big stuff, as I know plenty of people will be timeshifting this[...]
