Not Quite Dead

Well. A lot of things have changed since I started making these recordings.

I think started out to write my own obituary. To make sure that something of the truth would be left behind when I was gone.

It’s been a research diary, a regular diary, a place to hold my thoughts. A place to hide. To bury myself in my own thoughts and feelings instead of facing up to what was lying right in in front of me. A way to hold on to the present. Desperately clinging on to now so that I don’t have to think about what comes next. A place where tomorrow never really comes.

Well. Fuck that. Nothing is forever. Not even vampires. Tomorrow is coming if I like it or not.

My name is Alfie Dellon. I am a vampire, and I’m recording this so I can take it with me into whatever comes next.

Updated Version.

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.
