Quincey Morris is a character from Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula.
Canon
Quincey Morris is one of Lucy's suitors and a friend of Arthur and Jack. A wealthy American from Texas, he is presented as a man of action who doesn't speak much. He is one of the two characters to kill Dracula and the only one of the vampire hunter group who dies at the end of the book.
Fandom
- "did you guys know there's a cowboy in Dracula?"
- how random that is
- meta about that background -- e.g. is he actually a cowboy, or more of an entertainer like P.T. Barnum, or even just a "guest lifestyle" playing up his American background to be more appealing/entertaining to his American Hosts
- poc headcanons -- both in Dracula Daily and before he's been the character the most often seen depicted as a person of color
- sexyman -- won the Dracula sexyman poll link, considered by many fans to be the most attractive of the three suitors
- excluded from adaptations - to great fandom's frustration, Quincey is the character who appears in the adaptations the least, despite being one of the two characters who kill Dracula
- werewolf!Quincey headcanon relatively popular on Tumblr in mid-2010s.
Shipping
- Quincey/Lucy (potential in canon)
- The Suitor Squad (Quincey/Jack Seward/Arthur Holmwood -- gen character group is also popular)
- Quincey/Jack
- The polycule (everyone who's teaming up to fight Dracula basically)
