Dracula meets manga in this surreally beautiful and chilling
retelling of Bram Stoker’s quintessential horror classic. In this
beautiful, evocative, and often surreal retelling of Dracula, a
fearsome enemy comes from the east, bringing with it horrors the
likes of which have never been seen in the British Empire. Standing
opposed are Wilhelmina “Mina†Murray and her stalwart
companions, united in a cabal that eclipses gender, nationality,
and station until they can achieve victory. The lines between
reality and fiction blur as Count Dracula’s influence grows
within the halls of Whitby School. The arrival of the eccentric
Professor Abraham Van Helsing offers Mina and the others a chance
to learn about the foul condition that afflicts their shared
companion. But will the professor’s knowledge be enough to
preserve them in the face of this unspeakable evil, or will their
fragile bonds be torn apart by the arrival of the Son of Dragon?

Fledgling English lawyer Jonathan Harker treks into the Carpathian
Mountains to complete a real estate transaction—despite the
frightening warnings of the horrible dangers that await him.
Harker’s client is the ancient Count Dracula, who lives in a
sumptuously furnished castle—one strangely devoid of mirrors.
Harker soon realizes that the Count’s interest in London is more
than idle curiosity, and is woefully unprepared for the Count’s
obsession with Harker’s fiancée, Mina . . .
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
fiance 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 fiance
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.

Acting on behalf of his firm of solicitors, Jonathan Harker travels
to the Carpathian Mountains to finalize the sale of England's
Carfax Abbey to Transylvanian noble Count Dracula. Little does he
realize that, in doing so, he endangers all that he loves. For
Dracula is one of the Un-dead—a centuries-old vampire who sleeps
by day and stalks by night, feasting on the blood of his helpless
victims. Once on English soil, the count sets his sights on
Jonathan's circle of associates, among them his beloved wife
Mina. To thwart Dracula's evil designs, Jonathan and his friends
will have to accept as truth the most preposterous superstitions
concerning vampires, and in the company of legendary vampire hunter
Abraham Van Helsing, embark on an unholy adventure for
which even their worst nightmares have not prepared them.
 First published in 1897, Bram Stoker's Dracula established
the ground rules for virtually all vampire fiction written in its
wake. This volume is one of Barnes &
Noble's Collectible Editions classics. Each volume features
authoritative texts by the world's greatest authors in an
exquisitely designed foil-stamped binding, with
distinctive colored edging and an attractive ribbon bookmark.
Decorative, durable, and collectible, these books offer hours of
pleasure to readers young and old and are an indispensable
cornerstone for any home library.

Written in 1897, Stoker's novel introduces the iconic character of
the vampire Count Dracula. Through a series of letters and diary
entries, the novel tells the story of Dracula's attempt to move
from Transylvania to England, and the battle between Dracula and a
small group of men and women led by Professor Abraham Van Helsing.
Although Stoker did not invent the vampire, he defined its modern
form as we know it today.

Introduction and Notes by Dr David Rogers, Kingston University.
'There he lay looking as if youth had been half-renewed, for the
white hair and moustache were changed to dark iron-grey, the cheeks
were fuller, and the white skin seemed ruby-red underneath; the
mouth was redder than ever, for on the lips were gouts of fresh
blood, which trickled from the corners of the mouth and ran over
the chin and neck. Even the deep, burning eyes seemed set amongst
the swollen flesh, for the lids and pouches underneath were
bloated. It seemed as if the whole awful creature were simply
gorged with blood; he lay like a filthy leech, exhausted with his
repletion.' Thus Bram Stoker, one of the greatest exponents of the
supernatural narrative, describes the demonic subject of his
chilling masterpiece Dracula, a truly iconic and unsettling tale of
vampirism.

Dracula meets manga in this surreally beautiful and chilling
retelling of Bram Stoker’s quintessential horror classic. In this
beautiful, evocative, and often surreal retelling of Dracula, a
fearsome enemy comes from the east, bringing with it horrors the
likes of which have never been seen in the British Empire. Standing
opposed are Wilhelmina "Mina" Murray and her stalwart companions,
united in a cabal that eclipses gender, nationality, and station
until they can achieve victory. The work of the devil dashes
Russian cargo ship the Demeter upon the cliffs of Whitby Harbour,
unleashing a demonic plague onto the unsuspecting students of
Whitby School. Meanwhile, Mina struggles to find her place as the
only girl at the male-dominated academy. She will have to prove
herself when this unspeakable evil lays claim to her beloved
companion Lucy Westerna.
'I knew the site of the hut and the hill behind it up which I had
rushed, and in the flickering glow the eyes of the rats still shone
with a sort of phosphorescence.' Beyond the genre-defining
influence of Dracula, Bram Stoker was also a master of the short
story form. This new collection of the author’s tales represents
his diverse interests in the macabre and uncanny, ranging from the
hallucinatory and dreamlike in ‘The Shadow Builder’ and ‘In
the Valley of the Shadow’ to the more overtly horrifying in the
mini- masterpieces of ‘The Judge’s House’ and ‘The Burial
of the Rats’. Alongside acknowledged classics of the horror short
story canon, this new volume also includes obscurities such as the
darkly comic ‘Old Hoggen: A Mystery’ and the morbid fairy tale
‘The Castle of the King’ to reflect the full brilliance of the
legendary writer.

Arguably the most famous vampire story in all of literature, Bram
Stoker's Dracula (1897) is the chilling tale of a monster of
incomprehensible evil and the band of heroes who desperately hunt
him. With twists and turns that unfold through journal entries,
letters, and other "found" writings, Stoker stages a dramatic
struggle between forces of good and evil, insanity and reason, and
fear and desire as the group contends with the mysterious Count
Dracula and his terrifying nature. This unforgettable masterpiece
of Gothic horror inspired several iconic adaptations and has become
the archetype for the vampire lore that continues to grip audiences
across countless genres and mediums.

A stunningly beautiful clothbound hardback edition of one of the most
famous Gothic horror stories in the world.
Jonathan Harker is travelling to Castle Dracula to see the
Transylvanian noble, Count Dracula. He is begged by locals not to go
there, because on the eve of St George's Day, when the clock strikes
midnight, all the evil things in the world will come full sway. But
business must be done, so Jonathan makes his way to the Castle - and
then his nightmare begins. His beloved wife Meena and other lost souls
have fallen under the Count's horrifying spell. Dracula must be
destroyed....
HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved,
essential classics. 'Do you not know that tonight, when the clock
strikes midnight, all the evil things in the world will have full
sway?' When solicitor Jonathan Harker arrives in Transylvania to
organise the estate of a mysterious client, his growing uneasiness
quickly turns into terror. Count Dracula has something more
monstrous in mind and Jonathan finds himself trapped, a prisoner in
a castle of horrors. Soon after, a darkness sweeps across the seas
to England: Lucy Westenra begins to suffer from night-time
wanderings, followed by a set of unexplained bitemarks, and a
series of disturbing deaths captures the attention of vampire
hunter, Van Helsing. A nineteenth-century Gothic triumph that
explores the deep-seated anxieties and fears of Victorian society,
Bram Stoker's Dracula remains as chilling today as it was at its
time of publication.
