Dracula: The Gothic Classic

English

By (author): Bram Stoker

A classic masterpiece of gothic horror fiction

Dracula, Bram Stoker's chilling tale of disturbing events, dark desires and the harrowing world of vampires, has gripped audiences since it was first published in 1897. Reflecting the anxieties of late 19th-century Victorian society, this book explores the themes of superstition, sexuality and the fear of the unknown.

This epistolary novel conveys its narrative through letters, diary entries and newspaper articles as Jonathon Harker travels to Gothic Transylvania to assist the infamous Count Dracula with the purchase of an English house. The newly-qualified solicitor soon discovers the sinister truth about the Count's vampiric intentions and diabolical ambitions. The only thing standing in Count Dracula's way is a small group of people led by Professor Abraham Van Helsing, who know what he secretly is and have vowed to stop him.

Dracula remains a cornerstone of vampire lore, and has an ongoing influence on popular culture even today. This quintessential Gothic novel is perfect for horror fans, classic novel enthusiasts and fans of supernatural fiction.
