Dracula

Bram Stoker’s Dracula unfolds through diaries, letters, and telegrams as a young solicitor travels to a remote Transylvanian castle and slowly realises his host is no ordinary nobleman. When the Count sets his sights on England, a small band led by the vampire-hunter Van Helsing must track him across two countries before his contagion spreads. The novel fixed the modern image of the vampire and remains the defining work of Gothic horror.
