CARMILLA KARNSTEIN HEADCANONS (BOOK)

Warning: Here I will write some headcanons that I thought about Carmilla (from the book, not from the webseries). Also, english is not my native language, so may have here some gramatical slips (so please be gentle with me!). That's my first autoral post! Saying this, let's begin!

1. Carmilla has a HUGE obsession with dolls. She has a dollhouse colletion with inumerous dolls. Her favorite is a doll that's she named Elizabeth, she is ginger with blue eyes and dresses a florid dress.

2. Carmilla writes loveletters to Laura A LOT, but she never show any of them to her. She wishes to show to her someday, because Carm loves to demonstrate all her love and affection for Laura. She fears that Laura reject her.

3. Carmilla favorite colors is: red, black and purple.

4. Carmilla loves music and dance, especially waltz. She loves music so depleely that she asks for her Mother for piano lessions. Obviously, she fell in love completly for the instrument.

5. Carmilla loves cats, especially black cats. She adopted one when she was in Paris and called him Hades.

6. Carmilla loves to travel. Her favorite vacation destinys are Paris, London and Florence.

7. Carmilla likes to sleep a lot and HATES when someone wake her for some reason (except Laura).

8. Carmilla takes a lot of care of her hair (which is very long and wavy, almost reach her hips).

9. Carmilla don't believe in God since she turned into a vampire.

10. Carmilla is a Scorpio and her birthday date is October 24th.

11. Carmilla have a deep depression. Laura don't understand her humor instability, but tries to care for Carm and make her feel better.

12. Carm feels a deep guilty for hurt and kill other people for her own surviving as a vampire. She wishes never hurt anyone, especially Laura.

13. Carmilla loves chocolate, cakes and candies. And by the way, Laura bakes a lot of them for her lovely vampire.

14. Carm is a polyglot. She knows english, french and german fluently (german is obviously her native language).

15. Carmilla loves to flirt with Laura, besides praising her. She adores when Laura's cheecks turn red when she praise her pink lips or her beautiful blonde hair. And of course, asks for Laura to kiss her when they are alone.

So guys, I'm finishing this post here! Maybe later I will post more, if I remember because my memory is not the best and I am a very distracted person! If you like this post, please like or reblog.

i could write an essay on laura and carmilla’s relationship problems not even kidding

i’m going carmilla mode

bites her on the titty

Is the Carmilla fandom dead? Did I get introduced to it too late?

Laura: Wow Carmilla's hair is SO nice I love playing with it and bradding it! It's so thick and nice to touch. It weighs so much. Gosh, I love her hair, it's sort of a dark brown but there is also a bit of gold in it. Did I mention how nice Carmilla's hair is?

Also Laura: I love platonic friendship

I truly hope I’m not the only person to have done this

Dracula vs Carmilla

The writing in Dracula:

"Day 1 of the Castle, the Count is a strange but friendly man, I think my employment here shall be fine and nothing will go wrong. Gosh I really love my fiance, Mina."

"Day 4 of the Castle, he's climbing down the fucking wall again. Gosh I really love my fiance, Mina."

"Day 6 of the Castle, he just fed a baby to his sexy roommates and I am thinking of jumping out the window."

The writing in Carmilla:

"Carmilla did something strange and inexplicable, and I was suspicious, but then she said she loved me, rubbed herself all over me, and sobbed into my hair. I was confused and not at all horny and forgot entirely about the other thing. Also, the General stopped by and told us this long, waffly story about a masquerade ball. Let me reprint it word for word here..."

I don’t consider myself a “romantic” by any means and I tend to stay away from primarily romance books (just personal preference) however, When I was reading Carmilla and I read:

“I am sure Carmilla, you have been in love.”

“I have been in love with no one, and never shall,” she whispered, “unless it should be with you.”

I swooned, like oh my god that is just- how was Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu gonna write that and call it a cautionary tale???? It’s just so beautifully sweet and I love it so much.

Edit: I just realized I think the reason I love it so much is because I can remember being a young girl and confidently announcing I would never marry a boy and all the adults in my life laughing and shaking there heads, telling me I’d understand it when I got older. Here Camilla is saying something similar, she will never love nor marry a man. Something about it is just so sweetly innocent and it’s nice to know young girls hundreds of years ago may have said the same things we do today.

No one could have made me believe in advance how explicitly gay Carmilla (1872) actually is

I thought it would be funny if I made an "iconic ships tournament" except it was random ships I liked with no other reason to be included.

Can we talk about how silly Carmilla is to do that anagram thing? Especially since they start as major stretches until she gets to Carmilla, which is the only one that sounds like an actual name

It is hilarious to me when adaptations like castlevania and vampire hunter D make Carmilla some kind of epic vampire queen because I will never not see her as a moody theatre kid sighing and flopping on the chaise lounge because she composed twenty six pages of poetry for her girl crush and the reply was "um thanks".

tbh I would probably become a little unstable too if some family acquaintances murdered my girlfriend just because she’s a vampire

My vision for a Carmilla adaption is them leaning into both the fact that the novella is a confession and also that Laura is a liar. I want Laura to narrate that she absolutely didn’t fuck Carmilla while onscreen she fucks Carmilla. My vision.
