**//Write down your thoughts,comments and critiques on this week's reading/video.//** 

Hints on what to journal on:

I had a cup of coffee.
 * Did you like it? Why or why not?
 * Can you compare it to something else you have read, seen, or experienced?
 * What makes it work? or not. ex: setting,pace (as in the build up of suspence),any startle factors, surprise ending etc...

​ i loved the movie. i thought it was really great. the whole week was fascinating. my thought of the possibility of paranormal activites might have changed a little bit. the fact that it might be possible is becoming more prevalant.

when i first started reading this book, i thought OH MY GOD this book is boring. seriously the book would put me to sleep after about three pages or less. but then i just kept at it, and it got interesting. i guess i would have to say my favorite part of the book so far was how well harker was describing the scenery on his way to the castle. he just painted the best picture in my head about the wolves and the hills and mountains.

ok, but very vague, you haven't really told me anything, yet. Ms. G.

How come many people feel that this book is boring? Mengling ZHAO

hmm, well, the way they describe the scenary in this novel are very well thought out and you can almost feel the empty castle and the dust wisp off the pages, either that or its how dusty the book is. I am not a big fan of the whole journal thing but, i do like to hear from strange points of view, maybe it would be better to hear from Dracula's point of view as we saw in the others. Not many novels or movies have taken this initiative yet, id like to see more of that in our near future. and zombies..although the dialogue would be lacking :D - joey

the book was getting a little bit weird when that guy was eating all the flies and the spider and stuff. i think that there is a good reason that he is in the mental hospital. he is a zoophagus. and apparently that means that he eats animals but not like the ones that we would think. he eats insects. my favorite part is still the scenery. but that was so messed up when lucy started biting the kids. i mean just weird.

lol, yes this zoophagist does means to eat animals and definately deserves to be locked up in padded wagon but, i know ive been very pronounced about this but lucy is such a boring character..can we just kill her for the second time already?? lets get back to jonathan and mina...the more interesting leads of the novel. - joey ​ lol we can if you want. i dont care about how the rest of the book goes but my favorite part is still the bloofer lady, and the scenery. i cant even imagine how we would be living if they had our technology back then... i was just thinking about the blood trans-fusions and blood typing. but if they had that stuff back then, then we would have some crazy awesome stuff. who knows maybe even a cure for most types of cancer.

overall i thought that the book was very enticing... it took a while to get into it for me but i eventually caught on with the rest of the class and went on to read a truly enjoyable book. i am glad to have had to pleasure in reading this book. my favorite part was when van helsing mutilated lucy's body. that was just gnarly.

Dude, that movie pissed me right off. i was thinking "oh yeah! alright! finally a hopefully gorey movie!!" i was utterly disappointed. the ending sucked. you dont even know what the hell killed them...

I felt that the ending was very very dull and shoulda shown something. IT made me a little pissed. :D -Bradley Clark

Well, very nice seeing you havent put anything up about the witches yet lol..anyways..i personally think id be the guy who gets enticed by their beauty then killed ...well...cuz their witches..:/...just truth..-joey
