— I don't drink... Wine.

Holy hell! Now, that was an excellent way to start the new year! Gripping, bloody, frightening... What a ride!
This episode was spooky in the most serious possible sense of the word.

The actor playing Count Dracula is wonderfully charismatic and oozes just the right amount of creepiness and sassiness. Considering the similarities between the characters, Dracula makes Lucifer from Lucifer look like just a cheeky teenager.

The overly sarcastic nun, as uncharacteristic as she is, clashes perfectly with the Dracula persona and I'm eager to see more of those two together on screen. She's a nun with balls, so of course she had to be a Van Helsing (unexpected delightful twist, by the way). Hopefully, that will help her not getting killed anytime soon.
Good old Johnny boy was a decent lad till the very end, may God have mercy on his tortured soul.

I honestly did not expect this premiere to be this good! Heck, I wasn't expecting to kick-off the new year by already rating an episode with a full round 10! But this episode truly deserves all the praise I can give it.
The worst thing about this show is that it's supposed to be a mini-series, so this season will probably be all that we get. But, judging by this introductory episode, we sure are getting it good!
Can't wait to see who and what Dracula will be up to next!
