A chilling tale of ritual magic and Egyptian Mummy horror
The Jewel of Seven Stars is a horror novel by Bram Stoker the creator of Dracula.
An Egyptologist, attempting to raise from the dead the mummy of Tera, an ancient Egyptian queen, finds a fabulous gem and is stricken senseless by an unknown force. Amid eerie and bloody scenes, his daughter is possessed by Tera's soul, and her fate depends upon bringing Tera's mummified body to life.
This story had two endings – the originally released version was found to be too gruesome so shortly before his death in 1912, he was forced by the publisher to add a new ending. This yellowback edition has both endings.

Bram Stoker or as he was born Abraham Stoker (8 November 1847 – 20 April 1912) was an Irish author who is celebrated for his 1897 Gothic horror novel Dracula. During his lifetime, he was better known as the personal assistant of actor Sir Henry Irving and business manager of the Lyceum Theatre, which Irving owned. In his early years, Stoker worked as a theatre critic for an Irish newspaper, and wrote stories as well as commentaries. He also enjoyed travelling, particularly to Cruden Bay where he set two of his novels. During another visit to the English coastal town of Whitby, Stoker drew inspiration for writing Dracula. He died on 20 April 1912 due to locomotor ataxia and was cremated in north London. Since his death, his magnum opus Dracula has become one of the most well-known works in English literature, and the novel has been adapted for numerous films, short stories, and plays.
