	The Weird Tradition: THE DEEP ONES: "Dracula's Guest" by Bram Stoker	14 unread / 14	housefulofpaper, August 2022

The story isn’t particularly inspiring, but I’m not a huge horror fan. Seems to use a lot of horror movie cliches. Unseen creatures. Sudden drops in temperature. Characters who decide to enter abandoned towns despite warning of ghostly dangers. Granted, Stoker wrote this well before these were cliches, much less horror movie cliches. But I’ve seen and read them too much. The narrator, Aasif Mandvi, makes the story interesting though.
