What isn't to love about this amazing new study?
1) I can FINALLY use this Symphony of the Night gif.
Wait. That probably shouldn't be number 1, but that is probably one of the best games ever made.
Real #1) This team extracted peptides from actual letters sent by Vlad the Impaler - THE inspiration for Bram Stroker's ridiculously awesome first person account of meeting the fictional Dracula.
Off topic, but if you've never actually read it, the fictional account of Dracula is letters from a lost-in-the-middle-of-nowhere nerd writing letters to someone back home as he ends up hanging out with the monster himself. This will email you the individual letters on the day they're written each year. Warning, he just whines about food for the first few weeks, maybe days, but it is hard to feel bad when very bad things happen to "the author".
3) It is easy to think with these "proteomics unveils history" things that there is some level of extrapolation and human obsession with patterns, but - I dunno - this is a riveting story.
Is there blood on them? Fuck yeah there is, but that's just the beginning.
