I am equal parts excited and terrified for the Dracula mini-series. Steven Moffat has always written disturbing material that sticks in my brain pan for days – Are you my mummy anyone? Moffat has joined another favorite of mine, Mark Gatiss, in creating the vampire mini-series for Netflix. The duo was behind BBC’s hit Sherlock.
The streaming giant released a video today announcing the premiere date for Dracula – January 4, 2020. Straight out of the gate there’s a bug crawling in some dude’s eyeball and I said out loud, “I’m out!” Then I did a lap around my kitchen and came back and watched it until some other dude’s (or perhaps same the same dude) nail came off. I took a few deep breaths and kept going. I fear this is how I will watch the entire Dracula series.
There was also a trailer released today on BBC One that you can see below. (it’s airing on BBC One in the UK) This show has all my favorite things: Moffat and Gatiss, period piece, humor, and nuns! The violence I don’t like so much but at times we have to make sacrifices in life and for me, this is one of those times.
