Continuity mistake: When Mina receives the letter after Jonathan escapes, she's holding it in her hands as she begins to climb the stairs, but in the next shot, her hands are empty, best seen when Van Helsing holds her hands. (01:10:00)

Suggested correction: Mina is in two different sets. The first she is in front of a gate. Of course, she has plenty of time to put the letters away.
I have checked the scene and you are absolutely right - Mina is indeed standing at the gate in the first shot, which gives her enough time to put the letters away before walking up the stairs to see Lucy in the second shot. Sorry, my bad.

Dracula (1992)
Corrected entry: When Dracula helps Jonathan shave, he first asks Jonathan for the letters that he requested to be written. In the initial shot, he's holding the letters but in the next he is not. (00:27:41)
Correction: If you watch his hands at the end of the first shot, after he replies, "Good", you can see him open his robe and stick the letters inside them.

Corrected entry: When Lucy is walking through the garden maze at night, her reddish-orange gown reaches her feet, but after the wind sweeps by her legs, the gown is knee length. When Mina leads her back to the house, it goes back to its original length. (00:39:50)
Correction: After Lucy's gown is blown up in the wind, the skirt section of the dress slowly sinks down again and for a few seconds it looks like her dress is knee-length; however, at the end of the shot, the entire skirt has moved back into place and you can tell that the dress still reaches her feet.
Correction: The dress that Eiko Ishioka has designed for this shot consists of a corset that reaches up until the bases of thighs and the rest of the dress is made of pieces of very thin fabric. And that's why when the wind blew the dress swooshed of her legs. Here's the picture that shows how the dress was built. http://www.thehunchblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/oc-lucy.jpg.

Dracula (1992)
Corrected entry: In the party scene where Lucy is receiving her guests the 'cowboy' character leaves his hat on the sofa, where it is sat on. A moment later he is holding it in his hand and it is in perfect shape. (00:22:25)
Correction: This is incorrect. After Dr. Seward sits on Quincey's hat, he gives the hat to Quincey in the same shot. The hat is not seen again for the rest of the scene.
