Eternal evil doesn’t die. It downloads..
In 2176, The Machine controls every memory, mind, and moment of human life. No one dreams anymore—except Dream Analyst Anim Kharer. Her forbidden nightmares feel like memories: a ruined castle, a voice calling her name, and a figure shrouded in darkness.
When people begin collapsing into vacant “Lobots,” Anim discovers corrupted code hidden deep within The Machine. A name written like an equation in blood:
DRACULA.
Once a brutal ruler who etched his immortality into living code, the Impaler has survived for centuries…and now he’s rising again. Flesh, fangs, and fury return as a digital plague tears through the world.
Worse, Dracula knows Anim.
He’s been following her.
And he wants her.
As the dead stir and technology crumbles, Anim must uncover the truth buried in her stolen memories—before the Dark Prince reclaims the world…
and the woman he marked as his own.

Very clever, modern re-telling of Dracula…. Wamphyri are my favourite source of evil characters and this short story didn’t let me down. Really enjoyed it.

Wow, I loved every minute of this dystopian Dracula retelling! It was exciting, suspenseful, and unique. Another excellent book by RJ Clark!

Dracula.exe is a different twisty sci-fi take on an old classic. Will this version be for everyone – probably not. But if you are looking for a new way to look at an old tale, this is a good option. (Keep in mind there are some spicy scenes so this is for sure geared towards adults). I have read a few story’s by RJ Clark and he does horror stories well, with great description and just enough blood and gore with a developed plot. Loved the modern take that blends with the classic, very interesting concept!

This was a very interesting retelling of Dracula. The setting being far into the future was a cool choice. I liked the technology aspect and how the characters from the original story fit into the characters in this one. There were also some good twists I wasn’t expecting. Overall, I enjoyed this story.

I enjoyed the book, it was totally different to the usual Dracula stories. Well written and brilliantly executed.

What a great read. Who knew a futuristic dream analyst could ever know, let alone be impacted by the likes of Dracula. This story seems implausible, but Clark weaves a tale that engages and surprises. Well told, well written and well received. I have read many books by RJ Clark and glad this was available. Another must read.

This is a really interesting retelling of the classic story Dracula. The story managed to keep me on the edge of my seat. It was suspenseful and unique

I am a pretty big vampire fan, and I really enjoyed this different take on Dracula. I liked the different styles of Dracula mentioned based off multiple different stories and how it all tied together. the idea of the machine and ear and eyes and what theyre used for gave me a lot of vibes from 1984. I also connected the concepts a lot with how internet is used today and how it sucks so many people dry. I dont know if I was meant to see metaphors like that but its what I got out of it, and I liked that deepness. there is some gore of course with it being rj clark and I always love his gore! a nice quick and fun read as well!

Coming in to this book I didn’t know what to expect. It really surprised me between the unique twist on Dracula and it taking place so far in the future. It had a lot of plot twists and turns that kept me interestes in reading more. If you’re a fan of Dracula definitely check this one out.

Well, is this different or is this different. Dracula but not as we know it. It’s a slow starter, it all comes together at the end. I have to say not really my cup of tea but I liked it. Recommended read.

This is a very different – yet same – Dracula story we’ve all heard. It’s surprisingly engaging and has memorable characters that again, are the same yet different. I wouldn’t normally recommend a book like this, but this one is so different that I simply must. Except…. It’s also the same. You’ll just have to read it yourself!

Excellent twist on a classic. I really enjoyed RJ Clark’s twist on classic Dracula story. Having the Harkers, Van Helsing involved was amazing. Throwing in future technology, and the story worked. Well done!

I enjoyed this different spin on the classic Dracula story.

A futuristic take on a classic horror tale, this had me flipping pages super fast. I have always been a fan of Dracula, but to see what the future could look like with him still being around was marvelous!
