Ive Always Seen Him Ending Up A Bit Of An Insomniac After All That - Tumblr Posts
When did you first notice Dracula had placed a curse on you?

It is easier to see the signs now, in hindsight, but I did not make the connection for years. It was only when the spirit of the Vampire Killer spoke to me that it was confirmed.
Before then…

It began with nightmares. Some made me relive my fight with Dracula in perfect clarity...

...including the pain from the injuries he inflicted upon me.

In others, I experienced my death by suffocation or drowning.
Others… blurred the lines of my conscious reality.

His sinister voice tainted my mind with each passing night. I assumed it was borne from trauma from our confrontation, and I tried to deal with it privately.

But I reached a point where that was no longer possible.

As the years passed, I was mentally and physically worn down, leaving me vulnerable for the curse to worsen.
