So it was a re-write of the first few chapters of Bram Stoker's Dracula with women instead of men.
No, it was inspired by Bram Stokers Dracula, and I have outlined four more stories after this one. These take sever turns away from the inspiration provided by Dracula, my favorite horror novel. I hope to write one every six-months or so. But yes, I flipped the genders. The brides in Dracula were never more than decoration to the story. My grooms play integral parts in future outings. I hope it didn't offend you that I took inspiration from Dracula.
I want to hear more about the boys maybe have one of them meet a woman who he falls in love with?
Brilliant and amazing. The depth of the characterizations is impressive. And, no, Lovecraft_Lore, this is much more than a rewrite of Dracula -- come on.
Wonderful gothic descriptions, very well written dialog, characterization, and captivating narration. Great work!

This isn't a quick read. But it is quite a lovely little horror tale. I love the story, I see its roots in the novel Dracula, and love the flipped genders. Now, while I see its roots, it isn't Dracula at all. I'm wondering where this story might go next. It's very sexy and erotic without any full-blown sex scenes. This could easily be published for sale and would do well wit horror lovers.
This has the feeling of a book one in series. Dare I hope for more?
