Raccoon Dracula (Danji and Nancy Yeldell)

Recently I stumbled across this wonderful finishing of Danji's Dracula Raccoon on Instagram, courtesy of Island House Needlepoint.

Pretty spectacular, isn't it?  I discovered that this canvas has a stitch guide by Nancy Yeldell although I can't tell if Island House's Dracula was stitched using it.  Looks like Dracula Raccoon is part of a Halloween series from Danji but I'm unable to find others in the series.  It might be new.
