Draculas Journal


For hundreds of years, I have existed as a monster. You fear me for I go out at night, bite your necks and suck out your blood. I don’t know why I love blood. When I drink blood, I feel 20 years younger (you say so too!). I can’t confirm if I really look as I feel (20 years younger) because remember, I don’t have a reflection in the mirror.

It has been a long time since I’ve written again in my black book (my diary). You have long proclaimed me dead. Ha, ha, ha, now I’ve proven you wrong! I was only asleep. I was unable to escape this unlucky fate. For a long time, I hid in a barn in Transylvania and I’ve lived there ever since I awoke. I longed for those days when I still lived at the palace. My lifestyle then was quite extravagant. Drat to you who learned of my “nocturnal activities!” Oh well, I better make the most of what I see, hear and learn now to further my plan of world domination.

Sadly, I seldom go out for bites nowadays. I can sense the world changing. I can see tall towers that you people call as “cell sites” and big dish-like structures you call “satellite dish.” I hear you talk in English but I can’t seem to understand the words coming out of your mouth. Words such as internet, I-pod, digital camera, cellphone. I also hear the words surf the net, Yahoo, Google, Friendster, etc. What are these? Have I awakened in another world? Aahh no, I’m sure this is still Earth, but a very different Earth. I used to have a very big library with all the books about England. Now, you talk about a very big CD–ROM Library. What’s that?

I have to be very careful nowadays when I try to go out for a “bite.” You now have a “jail” with people in uniform closely guarding it. And I learned that if you commit a really big crime, you don’t go to jail. Instead you are condemned to die, not in the gallows, but through lethal injection.

Now, I’m really interested in this internet thing. I learned that you can find anything in the internet. I want to search for new places where I can find new victims or what you call as “new blood.” I also want to “chat” with people across the globe. I’ll try to learn their addresses, their weaknesses and strengths. Then when I already have their trust and confidence, that’s the time I can victimize them. He, he, he. I can always create an alias so there’s no way they’ll ever find out the real me. Besides, I can do these things inside the safety of my hiding place. I can now see that this internet makes my plan for world domination relatively easy. I’ll turn you all into vampires in due time…that’s a promise.

Aahh… that was tiring. I must sleep now dear diary because it’s near sunrise. My coffin, which I built from the wood planks I found in this abandoned barn, awaits me. Sweet dreams!
