The premise itself sounds mouth-watering.
Some of literature's most famously terrifying characters, including Dr. Frankenstein and his creature, Dorian Gray and iconic figures from the novel Dracula, become embroiled in Victorian London.
8-episode TV Series coming in 2014. With Timothy Dalton, Eva Green, Josh Hartnett, Rory Kinnear, Billie Piper among others.

Ditto! Two 007 stars in a Horror series!::smile:: Sounds really good.

Hope they stay fairly true to the characters in the novels. I grow increasingly weary of writers putting their own "spin" on these figures. The novels are popular because they got it right.

Does anyone know when this starts? When I first saw it advertised, all I could think about was the 2006 film of the same name, and was pretty skeptical, but the quote V posted sounds much more promising.

Made it halfway through the first episode. I found it a bit too polished and it seemed to take itself too seriously. I have to give this show some time but it seems like League of Extraordinary Gentlemen for the Hot Topic set.
Kinda lost interest in it

I loved this!
I thought Eva Green was really good. She looked like she lost weight for the role and in some scenes looked skeletal!
