A young solicitor travels to a lonely castle in the Carpathians to serve a nobleman client, and discovers, too late, exactly what his host is.

Bram Stoker's 1897 novel is the towering classic of vampire fiction, told through journals and letters as Count Dracula reaches from Transylvania toward England and a band of hunters rises to stop him. Terrifying, seductive, endlessly influential. Read it for the book that defined the vampire and remains one of horror's supreme achievements.
