My itinerary: Tube to London. Zeppelin to Munich. Train to Bistritz. After that, horse-drawn carriages. How quaint.

Welcome to the new Bite-Sized Dracula reboot (aka #SteampunkDracula). We're going back to 1887, but not quite in our universe…

— Bite-Sized Dracula (@DraculaBites) May 1, 2013

Parts of #SteampunkDracula will be told through Twitter and parts through modified "excerpts" from the text on the blog.

— Bite-Sized Dracula (@DraculaBites) May 1, 2013

#SteampunkDracula won't exactly be a coherent or consistent narrative, but will, I hope, be fun nonetheless.

— Bite-Sized Dracula (@DraculaBites) May 1, 2013

The hope is to keep #SteampunkDracula in real-time like the original @DraculaBites, but as I'm still writing that may not happen.

— Bite-Sized Dracula (@DraculaBites) May 1, 2013

The #SteampunkDracula reboot will run through November after which we'll return to 1889.

Waiting for my ride. What's that clanking sound? http://t.co/GoWYhoZEfe

— Jonathan Harker (@JHarkerEsq) May 6, 2013

Standing outside this crazy castle. Anyone going to let me in? http://t.co/PS3ACpNS6C

— Jonathan Harker (@JHarkerEsq) May 6, 2013

Oh, did I mention that the castle is entirely mechanical?

— Jonathan Harker (@JHarkerEsq) May 6, 2013

And now, some #SteampunkDracula re-introductions…

— Bite-Sized Dracula (@DraculaBites) May 6, 2013

Taking a page from Ada Lovelace (Lord Byron's daughter), @MrsMinaHarker (still Murray) is a mathematician and computation programmer.

— Bite-Sized Dracula (@DraculaBites) May 6, 2013

As originally envisioned by Stoker, @QuinceyMorris is a famous inventor and adventurer.

— Bite-Sized Dracula (@DraculaBites) May 6, 2013

Our friend @JackSewardMD is a bit more open-minded now and actively studies psychic phenomena.

— Bite-Sized Dracula (@DraculaBites) May 6, 2013

@RMRenfield is a pioneering, if slightly insane, virologist.

— Bite-Sized Dracula (@DraculaBites) May 6, 2013

I think that's all you'll need to know to get started. More information to come as needed. #SteampunkDracula

— Bite-Sized Dracula (@DraculaBites) May 6, 2013

Dear @ArthurHolmwood (or I should say #LordGodalming). I've completed the last batch of changes. @MrsMinaHarker is almost done programming.

— Quincey P. Morris (@QuinceyMorris) May 6, 2013

Hey @QuinceyMorris, the Advanced Reasoning Tool is ready for a test drive. I'm calling it A.R.T. for short.

— Mina Murray Harker (@MrsMinaHarker) May 7, 2013

@MrsMinaHarker I'm sure his Lordship will appreciate the name. I'll swing by London next week and we can get A.R.T. up and running.

— Quincey P. Morris (@QuinceyMorris) May 7, 2013

@QuinceyMorris @MrsMinaHarker I appreciate all your hard work. Due to my recurrent illness, I am at the moment unable to travel.

— Arthur Holmwood (@ArthurHolmwood) May 8, 2013

I shall send our old friend @JackSewardMD in my stead to make an examination of the machine.

— Arthur Holmwood (@ArthurHolmwood) May 8, 2013

My dearest @ArthurHolmwood, why have you not written. Mama and I miss you. If you are unable to visit I shall come to you. Ever yours, L.

— Lucy Westenra (@TheLateLucyW) May 9, 2013

Sweet @TheLateLucyW, your words touch me, but I cannot ask you to see me like this, a withered shell of my self.

— Arthur Holmwood (@ArthurHolmwood) May 9, 2013

After years of searching, I have now a specimen of the fabled reanimatory virus. And yet I still cannot study it.

— RM Renfield (@RMRenfield) May 10, 2013

The virus can be kept "alive" in blood, but will not replicate in any of the animal hosts I have tried: flies, spiders, birds, rats, cats…

— RM Renfield (@RMRenfield) May 10, 2013

There is clearly no choice but to test it on myself.

— RM Renfield (@RMRenfield) May 10, 2013

#CountDrac's really interested in discussing English law and customs, and, oddly enough, @MrsMinaHarker's computations work. Curious fellow.

— Jonathan Harker (@JHarkerEsq) May 11, 2013

I have begun to notice some changes. Normal food makes me nauseated and sunlight greatly weakens me.
