Description
HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics.
We are in Transylvania; and Transylvania is not England. Our ways are not your ways, and there shall be to you many strange things.
Earnest and naive solicitor Jonathan Harker travels to Transylvania to organise the estate of the infamous Count Dracula at his crumbling castle in the ominous Carpathian Mountains. Through notes and diary entries, Harker keeps track of the horrors and terrors that beset him at the castle, telling his fiancé Mina of the Count’s supernatural powers and his own imprisonment. Although Harker eventually manages to escape and reunite with Mina, his experiences have led to a mental breakdown of sorts.
Meanwhile in England, Mina’s friend Lucy has been bitten and begins to turn into a vampire. With the help of Professor Van Helsing, a previous suitor of Lucy’s, Seward, and Lucy’s fiancé Holmwood attempt to thwart Count Dracula and his attempts on Lucy and consequently Mina’s life.
Arguably the most enduring Gothic novel of the 19th Century, Bram Stoker’s Dracula is as chilling today in its depiction of the vampire world and its exploration of Victorian values as it was at its time of publication.

Dracula by Bram Stoker is often praised for its atmospheric setting, compelling characters, and the innovative diary-style narrative that draws readers into the dark and captivating world of Count Dracula. It has been described as a cornerstone of gothic horror, with reviews highlighting its ability to blend suspense, romance, and a deep sense of foreboding. The novel's exploration of themes such as fear, the supernatural, and the clash between modernity and ancient evil has made it a timeless classic in literature.

About the Author
Bram Stoker (1847-1912) grew up listening to his mother's tales of blood-drinking fairies and vampires rising from their graves. He later managed the Lyceum Theatre in London and worked as a civil servant and a newspaper editor and reporter. Dracula, his best-known work, was published in 1897.
