Today is Dracula Day.
Some monsters never die 🧛♀️
Bram Stoker gave the world more than a vampire. He created a shadow that still follows us through books, films, dreams, and nightmares.

—from Emily Gerard’s THE LAND BEYOND THE FOREST: Facts, Figures, & Fancies from Transylvania (1888). Her work was a key part of Bram Stoker’s research materials for Dracula.

"Some people use #Daywalker as a metaphor for feeling out of place. Just like most Daywalkers are half human and half #vampire, some people refer to themselves as Daywalkers to show that they feel like they’re not quite one thing or another.
(...) Some #neurodiverse people might refer to themselves as “Daywalkers” because they feel like they don’t feel like they quite fit a diagnosis, but aren’t quite the same as neurotypical people, either."

**A beautiful day of summer**
Elvis' days on earth were quite peaceful, like this one when he did some gardening in the tiny cemetery of a reaaaally small village near his crypt.
