Isn't Dracula canonically immortal? You could technically write him into The Expanse and be accurate. I guess the scifi people might have an issue with it.
Dracula in an otherwise realistic sci-fi setting would also have some potential.
Check out Blindsight by Peter Watts.
Fun fact, Blindsight is online free at the author's web site: https://www.rifters.com/real/Blindsight.htm
The vampires appear in Chapter 1, after the Prologue.
Such a good book. The vampires seem out of place in the hard sci-fi setting at first, but I think it’s actually quite well done, and ends up being very thematically relevant in the story.
