December 18, 2019
Nosferatu superfans take note — Netflix has unleashed the first teaser for its three-part adaptation of Bram Stoker’s 1897 classic “Dracula.”
Danish actor Claes Bang (“The Girl in the Spider’s Web”) stars as Count Dracula himself on the miniseries, created by “Sherlock” masterminds Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss.
While the first clip (above) doesn’t dwell much on the plot, it does offer a healthy mix of gore, seduction, and scares. “All you have to do is invite me in,” the legendary vampire character beckons amid quick cuts of nuns with knives and nails getting peeled off fingers.
Dolly Wells, Morfydd Clark, and John Heffernan also star in the series, co-produced by BBC One.
“Dracula” takes flight Jan. 4 on Netflix.
