(Reading his Journal but also as if he is experiencing it)
During the time I was left alone, I endeavored to systematically walk up each floor and try to open every door. To my horror, I found that most of them were not only shut tight but did not seem to require a lock or bolt to do so. The mechanisms by which Count Dracula holds me prisoner are a mystery to me.
(Desperately reassuring his wife who has just been assaulted)
Mina, listen to me. You are Mina Harker. You are my wife and my love. Everything that is mine is yours. I walked through Hell to be with you and here I will remain. Your horrors are mine.
