Lily-Rose Depp's Ellen tears at her corset in Nosferatu 2024.

While not all of Nosferatu’s changes to the Dracula story work, the decision to combine two previously unrelated characters was inspired. There are many differences between 2024’s Nosferatu and 1922’s original Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror, and even more differences between the new movie and Bram Stoker’s original novel Dracula.

Posts 1 However, on the level of characterization, Nosferatu makes many more alterations to both texts. Nosferatu’s Van Helping counterpart is still a quirky doctor, but the novel’s Dr John Seward is replaced by Ralph Ineson’s older Dr. Wilhelm Sievers. Arthur Holmwood is no longer a suitor of the unmarried Lucy Westenra, but rather the loyal husband of Emma Corrin’s Anna Harding.

Herr Knock’s new villainy makes Nosferatu’s plot scarier, as Jonathan’s boss playing a role in Orlok’s plan adds an element of conspiracy to proceedings. In contrast, Stoker’s Renfield is an asylum inmate who can’t do much to practically assist Dracula. It is also a little strange that it takes Dr. John Seward so much time to connect Renfield to Dracula, whereas Knock actively hides their relationship in Nosferatu.
