Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Fessenden explicitly set this in modern Brooklyn to critique how gentrification itself is a kind of violent reconstruction—displacing the old to build something 'new' that doesn't understand its own history.
The creature's name Adam and the doctor's friend Polidori are direct references—Polidori wrote the first modern vampire story in the same Geneva ghost story contest where Mary Shelley invented Frankenstein.
