I'm getting a lot of stick because my character in 'Young Dracula' wanted to be vampire so now that I am a vampire everyone's like 'You finally did it!'

When I was old enough to go to movies alone I got to see 'Frankenstein' and 'Dracula' on the big screen. I just fell in love with them.
There's all this stuff that is happening in Edinburgh now it's a sad attempt to create an Edinburgh society similar to a London society a highbrow literature celebrity society.
