First published in 1897, Bram Stoker's classic tale of a group of English friends tormented by a ruthless vampire returns in this eerie edition with a freshly reimagined cover When Jonathan Harker, a young English lawyer, journeys to the Carpathian Mountains to meet with a new client, his perception of reality warps as he experiences a series of paranormal events involving his host, Count Dracula, three women staying in his castle, and the local wolves. Jonathan wakes disoriented in a Budapest hospital with his fianc e Mina at his side. But the count's appetites are far from sated. He lands on the shores of England, leaving no survivors among the ship's crew. From there, Dracula stalks Mina's best friend, Lucy, who becomes very ill. Lucy's friends rally around her--one of them even recruiting an old teacher, Professor Abraham Van Helsing--but she eventually succumbs to her sickness. Mina and Jonathan reunite with their friends and Van Helsing intent on revenge. But can these ordinary mortals defeat a creature of the night?

Dracula is an 1897 Gothic horror novel by Irish author Bram Stoker. It introduced the character of Count Dracula and established many conventions of subsequent vampire fantasy. The novel tells the story of Dracula's attempt to move from Transylvania to England so that he may find new blood and spread the undead curse, and of the battle between Dracula and a small group of people led by Professor Abraham Van Helsing. Dracula has been assigned to many literary genres including vampire literature, horror fiction, gothic fiction, and invasion literature. The novel has spawned numerous theatrical, film, and television interpretations.

Abraham "Bram" Stoker (8 November 1847 - 20 April 1912) was an Irish author, best known today for his 1897 Gothic horror novel Dracula. During his lifetime, he was better known as the personal assistant of actor Sir Henry Irving and business manager of the Lyceum Theatre, which Irving owned. He graduated with a BA in 1870, and pursued his MA in 1875. Though he later in life recalled graduating "with honours in mathematics," this appears to have been a mistake. He was auditor of the College Historical Society (the Hist) and president of the University Philosophical Society, where his first paper was on Sensationalism in Fiction and Society.
