For those of you curious of the original novella by J. Sheridan LeFanu, I was able to find it online and publish it in Wattpad form. The cover for this is from the Web Series "Carmilla" which can be found on 'KindaTV' s youtube channel. It's much different from the original novella but it is a great show to watch. Hope you enjoy!
