Enter Kount Dartula:

"Bladesylvania" by Ralphiie Reese is a unique and thought-provoking album series that tells the story of Kount Dartula, an Islamic vampire of the Five Percent Nation. The character navigates themes typically associated with vampires—immortality, power, darkness and depression—but these are explored within the context of the inner city of Philadelphia. This blend of traditional vampire lore with urban life and Islamic principles creates a rich narrative that challenges and redefines common genre tropes.
