I am big fan of Dracula, so when I think of cowboys in horror stories, I think of Quincey Morris.Guillaumehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12376749604845793465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5122304314547021226.post-13722699833259728262015-10-09T06:54:54.374-04:002015-10-09T06:54:54.374-04:00A most excellent observation, mon ami, and one I h...A most excellent observation, mon ami, and one I had completely forgotten as I wrote the piece. I am speaking of Quincy Morris, the lone Texan in Stoker's "Dracula", of course. You have underscored a very important point, which is that the eras of the American Old West and Victoria are the same time.

I remember the Western Ghost Rider. I read one single story of the comics, but it had a strong impression on my mind.<br /><br />Two other elements of comparison that come to my mind: Quincey P. Morris in Dracula is a Texan and very much a cowboy that would fit any Western and The Missing is a movie mixing both genres (with the amazing Cate Blanchett).Guillaumehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12376749604845793465noreply@blogger.com
