“Dear Anon” is a script dissecting the linguistic similarity between the primary form of communication between the characters within the classic text “Dracula” and introductory messages from the profiles on mail-order-bride.net. This outcome is part of a larger project analyzing the Western perspective of Eastern Europe, this script splices the stereotypes we hold currently about Eastern Europe with a text that embodies the negative stereotypes held about Eastern Europe in Victorian society.
The merging of scripts takes on a life of its own, and highlights the sexuality that has been dormant in recent vampire fiction.
