Yeah, I wouldn't mind more gothic horror/gothic fantasy myself. In general, anyway. I don't mind modern urban fantasy either, and I'd enjoy some variations on gothic horror as well - I kind of like the idea of gothic horror IN SPACE, for example, or in a futuristic or post-apocalyptic setting. Things like Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, with the gothic aesthetic but not necessarily a historical setting. But yes. I adore the Hammer Horrors, caveats about 50s-70s sexism etc aside, and I would love getting new stuff in a similar vein. Pun intended.

I think some of the problem, though, might be that while they work really well as movies, they might struggle some as series. Gothic horror tends to be a slow, eerie, set-piece focused affair a lot of the time, which might be awkward in a series. Sustaining mood long term could be an issue.

Though I think Hammer Horror themselves made Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter in the vague hopes of turning it into a series (and I think it did get a comic book for a while there), and I wouldn't mind some of that. A gothic/historical series following an old-school Van Helsing-type hunter through cases would be cool. Like a lot of the historical crime shows out now, and with a similar tone, but with vampires/ghosts/witches/etc. Part of what I liked about the Dracula films was Peter Cushing's various Van Helsing characters and their not-always-directly-Dracula-related misadventures.

Or you could go original-flavour Dark Shadows on it, either. Or Penny Dreadful. Bit soapy in both cases, but at least the aesthetic was there.
