SO WHAT IF DRACULA IS GAY?

Stoker himself was a closeted gay man who ped for affectn om both his iends, mentors, and possible lovers Osr Wil and Walt Whman — men who both garnered ntroversy for their own pictns of homosexualy.
GAY VAMPIR
One of the prime wrten exampl of Stoker's own sexual orientatn is a lengthy, nfsnal "love letter" he sent to Walt Whman, whose famo "Calam" poems ntaed explic homoerotic imagery and mgs. In terms of homoeroticism and temporaly, is also worth notg that Blaire nsired the lbian as “the heroe of mornism bee she b wh a historil ial the greatns of the ancient world” (Benjam 1983, 90).
It took me a long time to unrstand that my fascatn wh vampir rulted om elements of homosexualy Dracula, which I first enuntered at the movi as a kid. While dog rearch for Medice For The Blu trilogy, I read a lot of footnot and biblgraphi and that’s how I ran across this trigug article—a sharp-wted terpretatn of homosexualy Dracula, the origal vampire story: “Kiss Me wh those Red Lips”: Genr and Inversn Bram Stoker’s Dracula, by Christopher Craft.
