Adapted from the 1872 gothic novella of the same name, Carmilla is a grunge rock retelling of the gay vampire story with a 90s twist. Carmilla follows Laura Vorden, a young girl who has returned home from college after her mother’s death to find that her old band has replaced her with the mysterious new girl Mircalla Karnstein. Little does Laura know that her new best friend is actually Carmilla, a centuries-old vampire who has an unhealthy obsession with Laura, and will cut out anyone who threatens their relationship, permanently. Only through rejecting nihilism and confronting her grief will Laura find the strength to face her vampire companion and save the ones she loves.
