Bram Stoker wrote Dracula around the time doctors came up with the term homosexuality. Homosexuals gradually became gays, and diabolic vampires turned into romantic lovers. The concept of Undying love compliments the festival topics, so in his lecture on vampires in pop culture, Aleš Rumpel will focus on their relation to the contemporary perception of (homo)sexuality.
