"Listen to them-- squealing in the night! What music they make!"

That's a deliberate misquote, but apropos, as you shall see.

In Bram Stoker's novel, and most movie versions of "Dracula," the Count's three vampire wives try to attack the guest he's saving for himself, for his own designs.

They're, shall we say, fairly aggressive in the book, somewhat more subtle but still determined in the 1931 movie.  Dracula orders them away, and they obey, but what if afterwards, in a scene we didn't get to see, he decided to reinforce his position, putting each of them in certain positions?

Then it might have looked like this new scan of the pen-and-ink-wash WolfieToon from 2005!
