Dracula by Bram Stoker

A dark castle, blood-thirsty vampires, flying bats, howling wolves, spiders, open graves at midnight, and other gothic touches fill this chilling tale about a young Englishman's confrontation with the evil Count Dracula. A horror romance as deathless as any vampire, the blood-curdling tale still continues to hold readers spellbound a century later and inspired Francis Ford Coppola to adapt into a major motion picture in 1992.

The late Bram Stoker was an Irish writer of novels and short stories and the business manager of the Lyceum Theatre in London.
