Bram Stoker 3 hr 11 min read

Adam Salton comes from Australia to visit his grand-uncle at Lesser Hill, and is drawn into a web of ancient evil surrounding a beautiful, sinister woman and the monstrous white worm of the legend.

Bram Stoker's 1911 novel, by the author of 'Dracula,' is a lurid, feverish Gothic horror. Strange, atmospheric, notorious. Read it for late Stoker at his most bizarre, a primeval serpent-monster lurking beneath an English estate, and a battle against an evil as old as the deep places of the earth.
