In celebration of both World Dracula Day and Peter Cushing's birthday.

Looking forward to going along to my first NECS conference later this week!
We have a special bonus event! Join us on Weds 24th June at 6pm (BST) for a discussion with Hee-seung Irene Lee's about her recent book Film Adaptation and the Real.
The book is open access: www.bloomsburycollections.com/monograph?do...
DM for the zoom link if you're not on the mailing list!
A great SIG symposium earlier this week with papers from Robert Geal, @jamesctaylor.bsky.social @faywinfield.bsky.social @stinaface.bsky.social and others! Exciting to hear lots of new ideas around adaptation studies.
We are open to inquiries & applications to host our 2027 conference! Check us out online or in person at Burman University for the 2026 program.
We at AAS are very excited that @litfilmquarterly.bsky.social is now publishing scholarly video essays! Check out Wickham Flannagan's "The TV Is Dreaming: Down the Rabbit Hole Documentation" -- of special interest to fans of David Lynch.
First time editing (my) podcast today, and it's wild how many gaps we have in speech. I've never had to think about it before!
Leeeeeestat. That's all I have to say currently.
Marking season is nearly over. I cannot *wait* to do some reading.
