I know; that's why I think it would be perfect for paranormalization. Something which already sort-of mocks tamed horror-ish tropes then being mashed-up with them and further mocking them "live", so to speak? Bonus!
I wonder if there's any correlation between the availability of recent-ish Austen film/tv adaptations and the popularity of derivative books related to the originals that got adapted. That might kind of explain why
Sense and Sensibility and
Emma seem to be the runners-up, spinoff-wise, and
Mansfield Park* and
Persuasion seem to be mostly ignored†.
* Okay, there was
Mansfield Park and Mummies, but I suspect that was mostly done for alliterative purposes.
† No miniseries? No market!
