Hey folks, it's Eira, creator of Not Quite Dead. Something a little bit different today; our friends over at Re: Dracula have been percolating something spectacular in their off-season: a new adaptation of Carmilla. Carmilla is one of those classic vampire stories which made me fall in love with them as creatures. This new adaptation of the classic toxic lesbian vampire romance is being done in the same style as Re: Dracula, and you'll be able to listen to the whole thing in the Re: Dracula feed starting from today. I really hope you enjoy it. You can find it by searching 'Re: Dracula' wherever you listen to podcasts, or by following the links in the description of this episode. A transcript for this episode of Carmilla: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1tTdhBKC8hRqYLkZEZqisvNIFxdIT25uqBMzuGWnuQik/edit?tab=t.0 Find out more about Carmilla here: https://redracula.live/#carmilla Hosted on Acast.

Based Vampirification: A Not Quite Dead Audio Essay 16:12

39 weeks fa16:12

16:12

Hey folks! Something a bit different this week. Last year, I got quite a lot of interest in the idea of me talking about my relationship with existing vampire media, queer readings of those vampires, and how those things contributed to the creation of Not Quite Dead. Mild Spoiler Warnings for Buffy the Vampire Slayer , Twilight , Dracula , Interview with the Vampire and Underworld . Based Vampirification is me discussing the various pieces of vampire media that set me down the path which would eventually lead to the conception of Not Quite Dead. It involves tenuous leaps, stretched interpretations and deeply personal readings of the texts in question, all informed by many years of academic literary study and not-so-academic vampire brain rot. Transcript available here: https://hangingslothstudios.com/based-vampirification/ Or here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AZ0aYTVZ9j_FL1OBoNQAlfWUoPsPQxAAKaYqssHe_Ns/edit If you're intrigued to take a slightly more scholarly jaunt into this subject matter, here are some things which I think make for a great jumping off point. There's a range of things listed here, including a fun video essay, some non-academic articles and an academic paper: ‘The trail of blood : queer history through vampire literature’ https://louis.uah.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1220&context=uah-theses ‘Vampires Are Us’ https://glreview.org/article/vampires-are-us/ ‘Closet and Coffins: The Queer-Coded History of Vampires and Representation’ https://ohiofusion.com/closet-and-coffins-the-queer-coded-history-of-vampires-and-representation/ ‘Vampiric Seduction and Vicissitudes of Masculine Identity in Bram Stoker’s Dracula’ https://www.jstor.org/stable/40347238 ‘Twilight’ (a video essay) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqloPw5wp48 Hosted on Acast.

Introducing Remnants: An Audio Drama 0:58

47 weeks fa0:58

Hello, I’m Eira, creator of Spirit Box Radio , Not Quite Dead and Clockwork Bird . This July I’m releasing a brand new show, Remnants, a gothic fantasy thriller. The show follows the new Apprentice at the First and Last Place as he sorts through objects who hold the remnants of their previous owners within them. His job is to decide which of them is re-shelved, and which is discarded, but he has no criteria to work with and no idea what the consequences of his decisions will be. As the story goes on, the Apprentice begins to wonder why he, of everyone, was chosen for this task, and why his near-omniscient boss, known only as ‘sir’, has chosen now to train an assistant. Remnants has a new story to muse over every week, and a mystery at its core which will have you pinning red string to cork boards as you try to solve it. Think The Talented Mr Ripley meets The Good Place and The Sandman . Remnants, an audio drama will start airing wherever you listen to podcasts from 15th July 2024.
