Some of you may have read Caryn Radick's wonderful essay "
Complete and in Order: Bram Stoker's Dracula and the Archival Profession" (2013) which explored the extensive use of archival material in Stoker's novel. Last week I ran across this project on Kickstarter, which brings all that lovely archival material to life :)
DRACULA: The Evidence: is an entirely new way to experience Bram Stoker's classic novel: through the research file of ephemera assembled by the characters themselves. It's the entire text of Dracula, presented as a gorgeously designed and curated briefcase full of maps, letters, diaries, newspaper clippings, telegrams, and phonograph records. We've teamed up with
Dracula expert and Bram's descendent Dacre Stoker to bring you the most immersive way imaginable to experience this modernist masterpiece of gothic horror.
