No no don't do it don't read Dracula Jonathan Harker is a tool! Really!
In all the movies he and the good doctor save the day. In the book they are tools! Harker knows he is to die in the castle and yet doesn't bash Draculas brains in and run for the castle door. Ya if a 60 year old guy lugged my heavy suit case up the stairs and 2 hall ways with no sweat i might wounder about them ho but not our Johny boy. Draculas just a red eyed old really strong man.

Vlad Dracula from Transylvania which is now Romania was the real Dracula Bram Stoker only took some characteristics from Carmilla which was her odd lust for virgin blood which she bathed in.

I never saw how Bram Stokers Dracula ripped off this book. The movies and etc. Yes, but Bram Stoker might have been inspired only. Where Dracula seemed to have somewhat homosexual feelings for Jonathan Harker. This does seem very interesting, but it's fairly short in my taste. But I would pick it up once I finish Shelley's Frankenstein and Stoker's Dracula. But honestly, I see nothing so similar but the vampire thing. After all Stoker was also inspired by Vlad the Impaler.

Once again, don't judge Dracula by its movies either. Most of the movies are watered down versions of the book that never really had strong connections. It's true that Carmilla is one of the inspirations of Dracula, he was also inspired by werewolf, vampire legends and historic visions, not to mention the nightmare he had of three women with fangs attacking him and drinking his blood. Yes, he was a sick puppy.

But "Dracula" has no lesbianism, no mountebank, no hint of blood relation between vampire and victim, no portrait of an 'ancestor', no evil family, takes place mostly in England, uses the then-most-advanced technology in the plot, includes the startling character of Renfield, etc. One might as easily call Sherlock Holmes a rip-off of "The Woman in White." JMHO...

Hammer Films did "The Vampire Lovers" while in the US Showtime's "Nightmare Classics" did a version set in the American South, starring Meg Tilly and Ione Skye. The BBC did a version in 1970 with Jane Merrow but that has, I believe, been lost. Roger Vadim called his film "Blood and Roses" and set it in the present. Plus a slew of films that are about female vampires named 'Karnstein.'

I agree that "Carmilla" is awesome, and almost certainly inspired Stoker's "Dracula." That said, there are a lot of differences. Alas, there hasn't been a really A-Grade film adaptation of LeFanu's work.

I daren't even lok for any of the films made that are based on it. With a story that good, only bad things can happen.

Don't be so quick to say Dracula is a complete rip off of Carmilla before reading the book.

The common themes that run throughout every film (big creepy castle in the mountains, certain characters ect) are all in Carmilla. Read it if you don't believe me ^.^ There's even a Van Helsing type figure though he doesn't come into it untill near the end.
