This is the first time I’ve been able to tap into some of my talented friends, but I felt it was key to have a real life Dracula instead of an AI created one. I love bringing your work to life, Noel, thank you for letting me play!
🎯 100% Thank you, it's a joy to work with you. And you made the right call with the actor for sure. You can't get the same emotion and nuance of expression with AI.
Oh my goodness, just when I think Tonika has exhausted her bag of tricks, she comes up with a new way to vivify our writing! This collaboration is yet another reminder of why I love connecting kindreds with complementary talents—and I get to enjoy the continued fruits of those connections!
My advice is to come back to the shores of this dark, dank island that he visited so long ago and for some unknown reason left. The odd few days of real sun in the UK gives its vampires time to rest from too much indulgence.
On a strictly factual note, vampires had been known in Perfidious Albion centuries before Vlad hit the scene and didn't slow down on his arrival or since his departure, its just a thing here apparently. The last two known outbreaks occurred in 2007 and 2012 in Manchester and Liverpool, not a thing widely known about I admit.
Thanks for another laugh, tho' it's a fact the British vampires avoid Halloween as they can do without all that candified blood. Now excuse me while I move my lid and wave my phone around to send you this, wifi is hard to get inside my coffin.
Do you know your collaboration got me thinking about how some vampires managed to move around the length of this island and I've realised it would have been easy.
Until relatively recent times, only folk with money could afford a carriage and horses to transport their dead to the church. Poorer folk used ordinary horse and cart, some just a handcart to move to the coffin. All self respecting vampires had a human at their beck and call. Transport from one area to another would be easy under those conditions.
So funny 😂 well done both of you! This reminds me of my own Bill Gates pieces which, given that it’s Halloween, I will share today and include this too. 👻🎃💀🧛🏼
Even if vampires per se are not real….although they probably are….the reality of life force feeding entities has been around forever. One such energy sucking parasite is the media consumed by the masses. For some reason, we are attracted like moths to this energy feeder and are unable to break free as it sucks us dry.
Although this sketch is a very funny piece of satire, it is also a timely reminder that we are in a constant battle between good and evil and it behooves us all to focus on positive and uplifting concepts and not to dwell on energy sucking negativity which will only drag us down further into the darkness.
The true light is our spiritual energy which we should protect, safeguard and not squander or give away to the parasites.
Since I have seen a number of clips from the soon to be released (well Feb 2026) film Dracula, A Love Tale, and am thinking this is the most romantic Dracula yet, I find myself agreeing in spirit with Tonika. Not in hard reality, to be sure, but definitely in spirit!
That being said, if there is a lot of money to be made doing this - from the equipment and execution contracts and then from the results - it may well happen.
Or perhaps the solar panel and wind farm concepts have flattened out profit-wise, and Bill Gates wants to resurrect (haha!) his plan from years back, when Gates had just invested bigly in nuclear power plants and new technology for that. His "a little nuclear reactor in every neighborhood! Or in every back yard, if I get the PR and kick-backs just right! What could go wrong! That I would actually care about!" plan. Naysayers were told we just did not understand the technology (sound familiar?) and power plants are always always perfectly safe and never mind about the waste, that can be disposed of secretly at night. Hey, and there would be way more night!
Or maybe someone has figured out how to actually patent D3 so there are huge profits there. And insect farms may not need much sunlight anyway. If people can grow lots of pot in residential homes using artificial lighting (another profit center!) then our bug burgers can be grown the same way. Not like anything is already using up more electricity than seems good for people, like, well, AI data centers.
Countries who have already invested heavily in solar and wind might be a little pissed off, but hey, who cares about their economies. I seem to recall that sunlight may have something to do with wind, but may be mistaken, I have to look that up. Maybe that is just the moon and rotation.

What a delectable performance—congratulations to you both!
Thank you, my dear! 🙏
Thank you, Margaret Anna! 🙏🏻
Great work.

Another great collaboration, you spoil us.

Ha! Thanks for sharing that interesting bit of history!

See what your collaboration inspired there!

Thank you, look forward to seeing those!
Excellent, perfect combination of reality and A.I. to a very pleasing artistic result.
Higher vibration with humor (and music) is the best way of getting through to those who are programmed and resistant.
Thanks! Agreed.
HuhZAAAA! Brilliantly writ and performed!!! I do like Me some...dark humor!
Thank you, Amaterasu! 🙏🏻 I figured out that you like dark humor a long while back lol.
🤗 💜 🤗
How fun and with that playful swallow of truth telling love it!!! thank you for bringing your creation to the world!
Thank you, Alanna! 🙏🏻

Great work once again guys!
🙏🏻 Thanks for the wisdom.
Just want to mention that dark humor is the best humor. Just like Nordic noir is the best crime content. As always, IMO.

Just some random thoughts.
I'm convinced! Vlad told a great story, on video, and was adorable--what's not to believe? He should start a GoFundMe.
