`DRCL midnight childrenVol. 1

Dracula meets manga in this surreally beautiful and chilling retelling of Bram Stoker's quintessential horror classic. In this beautiful, evocative, and often surreal retelling of Dracula, a fearsome enemy comes from the east, bringing with it horrors the likes of which have never been seen in the British Empire.

Standing opposed are Wilhelmina "Mina" Murray and her stalwart companions, united in a cabal that eclipses gender, nationality, and station until they can achieve victory. The work of the devil dashes Russian cargo ship the Demeter upon the cliffs of Whitby Harbour, unleashing a demonic plague onto the unsuspecting students of Whitby School.

Meanwhile, Mina struggles to find her place as the only girl at the male-dominated academy.

She will have to prove herself when this unspeakable evil lays claim to her beloved companion Lucy Westerna.
