Richian Presents: Dracula

3 May. Bistritz.

Jonathan Harker, a young solicitor from Exeter, is travelling east to close a property sale for a nobleman he has never met. The locals cross themselves when they hear where he is going. One woman presses a crucifix into his hand and begs him not to go.

By nightfall he is in a coach climbing the Borgo Pass. The wolves are close. Something is waiting at the top.

Chapter I of Bram Stoker's Dracula, performed by a full cast.

Richian Presents: Dracula is Bram Stoker's 1897 novel as a full-cast audio drama, told in the letters and diaries he wrote it in. The voices are AI. Casting, direction and the cut are by Rich and Adrian.

Dracula was told in letters.

Diary entries, telegrams, a ship's log, a doctor's phonograph recordings. Bram Stoker built the whole novel out of documents people wrote while the horror was still happening to them. So we are performing it that way: a full cast, every letter read in the voice of the person who wrote it, with sound design built for headphones and a dark room.

Thirty seconds. Headphones on, lights down.

Chapters 1 to 3 arrive Monday, 5 October. A new chapter twice a week after that.
