Dracula (AmazonClassics Edition) by Bram Stoker

Young lawyer Jonathan Harker journeys to Transylvania to meet with the mysterious Count Dracula only to discover that his nobleman client is a vampire who is thirsty for new blood. After imprisoning Harker in his castle, Dracula travels to England to seduce Jonathan’s fiancée, Mina, and the battle against an ineffable evil begins. Led by philosopher and metaphysician Professor Van Helsing—Dracula’s most indomitable adversary—Harker, Mina, and a band of allies unite, determined to confront and destroy the Count before he can escape. Bram Stoker ingeniously modernized gothic folklore by moving his vampire from traditional castle ruins to modern England. With Dracula, which has been interpreted and dissected by scholars for generations, Stoker changed the vampire novel forever. Revised edition: Previously published as Dracula, this edition of Dracula (AmazonClassics Edition) includes editorial revisions.

Bram Stoker (1847-1912) was an Irish author best known for his gothic horror novel Dracula, which gave the vampire its modern form. Stoker's keen interest in the arts led him to London in 1878, along with his wife, Florence, where he managed actor Henry Irving's Lyceum Theatre-and with less success, dabbled in short-story writing. In 1897, after spending seven years researching Eastern European folklore, Stoker published his masterpiece Dracula.
