Dracula - Mass Market Paperbound
by Bram Stoker (Author)
Bram Stoker's celebrated Gothic classic--a quintessential story of suspense, horror, and a creature with an insatiable desire for blood . . .
One of the most popular stories ever told, Dracula has been re-created for the stage and screen hundreds of times in the last century. Yet it is essentially a Victorian saga, an awesome tale of a thrillingly bloodthirsty vampire whose nocturnal atrocities reflect the dark underside of a supremely moralistic age. And it boasts one of the most terrifying characters in literature: centuries-old Count Dracula, whose diabolical passions prey upon the innocent, the helpless, the beautiful. Dracula remains Bram Stoker's most celebrated and enduring work--even today this Gothic masterpiece has lost none of the spine-tingling impact that makes it a classic of the genre.Front Jacket

Author Biography
Irish novelist, short-story writer, biographer, essayist and critic--Bram Stoker was born in Dublin on November 8, 1847. Although he claimed that the idea for his classic tale of Count Dracula came to him in a nightmare, Stoker was doubtless influenced in part by Arminius Vambéry, the celebrated Hungarian adventurer and folklore expert who introduced him to the vampire legends of Eastern Europe. The author wrote several other works of gothic fiction and romances. He died in London in 1912.
