Joe Betance and Lauri Roggenkamp sink their fangs into Dragula: Titans Season 2, Episode 4 — “Return to the Nosferatu Beach Party.” This week’s episode is packed with blood, garlic, and pure chaos as the Boulet Brothers challenge the monsters to stomach some horrifying delicacies and perform a beachy floor show that turns into a full-blown nightmare. From choking queens to public meltdowns, Joe and Lauri sort through the carnage with biting humor and plenty of shade.

• Beach Blanket Bloodbath: The ghouls down garlic and pig’s blood in a Fright Feat that nearly takes out one contestant. Lauri wonders why the Heimlich scene was edited in later — and Joe reminds us that editing is the real monster.

• Blackberri Blues: Joe and Lauri agree the judges’ love for Blackberri remains a mystery. Joe calls her win pure riggery, while Lauri can’t hide her bafflement at how anyone saw “vampire” in that look.

• Hellbound Showdown: Jade and Loris face off in a Nosferatu-inspired lip sync, but Joe and Lauri think Loris’ nerves cost her the crown.

• Zavaleta’s Meltdown: The episode’s centerpiece — Zavaleta erupts over an old relationship with Jay Kay, storms off screaming “Call my mom!” and ends up hugging a tree. Joe and Lauri diagnose the chaos with a mix of concern and comedy.

• Hospital Horror: Abhora lands in the ER after eating a prop heart, prompting debate over production safety and drag dedication.

• Dahlia’s Downfall: Joe and Lauri analyze Dollya's crumbling relationships, her wellness-check controversy, and her uncomfortable confrontation with the Boulets. Joe calls it manipulative; Lauri sees a survival tactic gone wrong.

• Sigourney’s Hypocrisy: Lauri calls out Sigourney for joining the pile-on despite once being a target herself.

• Eva’s Self-Insert Moment: Joe can’t resist roasting Evah for chiming in with “I just want to say…” when no one asked her anything.

Joe and Lauri agree: the drama saved this episode. Between choking fits, tree-hugging, and mysterious hospital trips, the Nosferatu Beach Party delivered enough chaos to keep the cauldron bubbling. As the cast turns on Dollya and alliances crumble, Joe predicts a double elimination on the horizon — maybe even a triple. Lauri just wants fewer tantrums and more drag.
