@Pro Bot will you or anyone really do a Universal Monsters Thread in the future? I would be very interested in a complete timeline of this convoluted universe, with everything that connects

An argument could be made for including Detroit Become Human as well, one of the endings for Heavy Rain has

Spoiler

Madison writing a book about the events of the story, also called Heavy Rain, Detroit Become Human shows a movie theater playing a movie called Heavy Rain, possibly an adaptation of that in-universe book.

Going back to this, when you first get introduced to the game, the android lady says "this is our future" and for me I took that Detroit: Become Human is both a video game and real events in the Quantum Dream Universe

1. The Classic Monsters franchise. (The Mummy: Dark Universe Stories directly crosses over with it)
2. The Mummy/Scorpion King franchise. (The Mummy (2017) features an object from these films, which was said to canonize them)
3. The Dark Universe. (They stated the past films are part of the canon, they're taking it in another direction)
4. Renfield. (Sequel to Dracula)
5. Potentially everything by Universal that's part of a brand associated with the Classic Monsters because the Dark Universe ride trailer makes it sound like Van Helsing, The Wolf Man, and Dracula Untold are canon, and the aforementioned "past films are canon" thing regarding The Mummy (2017). I suppose that means they'd be multiple Draculas, Frankenstein's monsters, whatever. Throwing in unofficial sequels, I guess Bela Lugosi Dracula's real name is Armand Tesla, as seen in The Return of the Vampire (1943).

Could other Draculas and Frankensteins outside of Universal Monsters exist as well?
