He insists that, "It's really a form of hemophilia in a way. There's no capes and fangs."

The director further relates that the craving for human blood is borne out of a virus infecting the characters in his series. Since there will be no fangs, Lady Gaga will wear a highly fashionable chain mail glove to slice the arteries of her victims.

This is Lady Gaga's first time, to return to the small screen after her performance of the "Sound of Music Medley", at the Academy Awards.

Just in case you are curious as to how she landed the role, she voluntarily asked Ryan Murphy for it. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly she revealed, " I called him and said 'Ryan , I wanna be on Horror Story.' And he goes,'Okay.' And that was it."

This will premiere on October 7 and run until January

    Lucy, who one would ultimately define as a “New Woman” is very sweet, yet Demetrakopoulous believes that her sweetness ultimately makes Lucy “not very bright, hysterically emotional, and easily had” when it comes to men, therefore making her ditzy and desirable personality a crime against society. As a “New Woman”, Lucy makes clear her desires and needs, and is unafraid to appeal to multiple men at once, as she did to Quincy, Andrew, and Dr. Seward. Due to the fact that Lucy represents the mere image of the “New Woman”, she was literally displayed as a vicious blood-sucking beast by Stoker himself. When Dracula turns Lucy into a vampire, her free expression of her sexuality offends and disgusts her husband. In fact, on the night where Andrew and the other men spot Lucy for the first time after her transformation, Andrew states “the sweetness was turned to adamantine, heartless cruelty, and the purity to voluptuous wantonness” (Dracula 417). Andrew’s total love for Lucy turned to rigid hatred after just one glance at his previous bride because she was not ashamed to express herself. Stoker, who clearly loathed the “New Woman”, made sure to demonstrate the “New Woman” in a negative lightning to try to avail to everyone that when women took control of their desires, they were bound to eventually overpower the…

    These women can suddenly take the male prerogative to instate an encounter that is inherently sexual, and penetrate their victim (with their fangs). This destabilisation of gender roles is not limited to female people receiving phallic symbols however; the vampire itself completely reverses the stereotypical roles of men and women in the Gothic story. The women become predators, dangerous creatures to be hunted and feared; the men are the prey and they crack under the pressure and become hysterical on several occasions, the “stalwart manhood seemed to have shrunk somewhat under the strain of his much tired emotions” [Stoker, p.181]. After Lucy is killed, Dr. Seward must comfort Arthur Holmwood in the funeral parlour when he “suddenly [breaks] down, and threw his arms round my shoulders and laid his head on my breast, crying,” [Stoker, p.181]. Whereas when Mina is told of Lucy’s death, she shows “courage and resolution in her bearing” [Stoker, p.240], and is determined to tell the full story of their fight against Dracula, even if recording the death of her friend upsets…

    The protagonist conceives his world in terms of dualities (inside/outside, black/white, human/monster), the fact that he avoids the temptation of the female vampires standing outside the house during night, is a way to understand the implicit racism of the novel. By avoiding the potential sexual encounter, he avoids the breaking between the boundaries of the dualities previously mentioned, thus preventing the mixture of blood, not only because of the bacteria, but also avoiding the mixture between races and keeping his body uncontaminated and pure. The lust he feels towards the female vampires, if we take into account the metaphor of the differentiation between white and black people, the sexual exploitation of black women carried out by white…
