Under the electric lights of London, Mina is enamored of a handsome young solicitor. But when Jonathan disappears on a business trip and Mina is approached by an alluring foreign prince, a shadow falls over their lives. Now, seven years since the defeat of the vampire, the wounds of betrayal remain… until their private journals are published under the name “Bram Stoker” and they must either face the past or be destroyed by it.
Adapted from Bram Stoker’s Dracula by John Heimbuch.

I was the dramaturg on this show. Biased as I may be, I have to say that the script is marvelous: It succeeds at being absolutely faithful to the original story (in a way that most adaptations are not), while simultaneously transforming it into something fresh and interesting.
