Told through journals, letters, newspaper clippings, and ships' logs, Dracula follows Jonathan Harker, a young lawyer who discovers that his mysterious client, Count Dracula, is an immortal vampire with sinister plans. As Dracula's dark influence spreads from Transylvania to England, Harker, his fiancée Mina Murray, and the formidable Professor Van Helsing are drawn into a desperate struggle to stop him.
Exploring themes of forbidden desire, fear of the unknown, and the battle between good and evil, this edition of Dracula is perfect for horror fans, collectors, and readers of classic literature. A cornerstone of Gothic fiction, Stoker's masterpiece continues to haunt and fascinate more than a century after it was first published.
Dracula by Bram Stoker is part of a five-volume collection that includes Edgar Allan Poe's The Raven and Other Selected Works, Dante's Inferno, Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray, and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.
