1''[[http://brokenteapot.deviantart.com/gallery/26546143?offset=96#/d2yedk6 Nosfera]]'' is the story of a vampire named, aptly enough, Nosfera, after her husband Brahm is killed by the vampire hunter Seymour Van Bellsing. She has to deal with learning about her new powers that she inherited from Brahm, revelations about him, and the vampire hunter coming back to finish the job. This comic can be found on Website/{{Deviantart}} and is made by the user [=BrokenTeapot=]. It is also an AffectionateParody of ''Franchise/{{Castlevania}}''.
