Three episodes — fear hits from the very first minute.
So, I’m not usually one to binge-watch horror — but this Netflix miniseries Dracula? Wow, it grabbed me from the first minute. Only three episodes long, and honestly, it’s the perfect weekend watch if you want to get properly spooked.
When Stephen King himself says, "You absolutely have to see this," I pay attention. And now I’m telling you — King’s right. This isn’t your usual vampire story. It’s Bram Stoker’s classic reimagined with this brilliant mix of blood, brains, and even a bit of that dry English humour I love.
The Epic Duel That Kept Me Glued to the Screen
The brains behind Sherlock — Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat — worked their magic here. Claes Bang as Dracula is just mesmerising — cold, clever, and utterly chilling.
But what really got me was Sister Agatha — a nun with a razor-sharp tongue and nerves of steel. Their sparring? It’s the beating heart of the whole show, and honestly, I couldn’t look away.
Why I’m Still Thinking About It
This show isn’t just scary — it’s smart, witty, and full of twists that kept me guessing. Stephen King mentioned how bold and shocking it is, and he nailed it. The final episode? Dark, daring, and a bit divisive — but exactly what modern horror should be.
With an 88% on Rotten Tomatoes and millions watching, it’s clear I’m not the only one obsessed. Three episodes, one weekend, and you’ll see why I’m still buzzing about it. If you want to fall in love with horror all over again, this is your show.
