The legend takes new life! On Friday October 25, NBC released its newest television show, Dracula. This show takes its own twist on the Dracula myth and the man behind it.
In this version of Dracula, we see our vampire posing as an American entrepreneur and his name is Alexander Grayson. He’s come to London hoping to share his latest invention, geomagnetic technology, in other words electricity.
We see a grand party at Carfax Manor, Grayson’s home, and there he meets Jonathan Harker who is an ambitious journalist. He also meets Miss Mina Murray who looks just like his wife who was killed centuries before.
It’s not long before we learn Alexander’s true intentions for coming to London; he wishes to destroy the Order of the Dragon. The Order of the Dragon killed his wife and destroyed his life. Now he is seeking his revenge. Aiding him is Abraham Van Helsing who actually freed him from a tomb that the Order imprisoned him in with his faithful friend R.M. Renfield.
Now Alexander and Van Helsing are trying to destroy the one thing that the Order of the Dragon needs to survive and that’s money. Through Alexander’s invention, he plans to take money from them and destroy them once and for all.
To see what happens to the others in Alexander’s world check out Dracula Friday’s on NBC.
