===Fanfic===
==== Novel ====
Dracula/Jonathan fanfiction tends to be darkfic, often featuring themes of abuse and sexual predation. Somnophilia is a popular trope, with Dracula feeding on and/or sexually assaulting Jonathan in his sleep.

*It's you my one desire by oooohscar (2023)

Many fanworks replicate epistolary style of Dracula, often presenting itself as the entries from Jonathan's journal that he destroyed or chose not to include in the documents that formed the novel.
* Savage Delight by Anonymous - a noncon fic replicating novel's diary format and Victorian style (2020)

A lot of fics end with Jonathan turned into a vampire, though this premise is rarely explored in detail.
* Awakening by Siberian (2015) 
* as if death itself were undone by platinum_firebird (2020)

* Indelible by disgruntled_owl (2020)
* Hospitality series by BlueCatWriter - a darkfic based on a headcanon that during Jonathan's stay in the castle Dracula was withholding food from him (2023-2024)
Most Dracula/Jonathan fics are set exclusively in the Dracula's castle, but some are AUs that have him take Jonathan with him to England.

* Beasts in the Night by TyrantGuardian (2023)

* Blood of My Blood: Never Loved by Dribbledscribbles, Ibrithir (2024, part of Blood of My Blood series)
