Dracula
Part of Penguin's beautiful hardback Clothbound Classics series, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith, these delectable and collectible editions are bound in high-quality colourful, tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design When Jonathan Harker visits Transylvania to help Count Dracula with the purchase of a London house, he makes a series of horrific discoveries about his client. Soon afterwards, various bizarre incidents unfold in England: an apparently unmanned ship is wrecked off the coast of Whitby; a young woman discovers strange puncture marks on her neck; and the inmate of a lunatic asylum raves about the 'Master' and his imminent arrival. In Dracula, Bram Stoker created one of the great masterpieces of the horror genre, brilliantly evoking a nightmare world of vampires and vampire hunters and also illuminating the dark corners of Victorian sexuality and desire.

Anne Rice is the one that got me into vampires years ago and I’ve only ever watched the movie Dracula. To listen to it was a wonderful experience! Bram Stoker was truly before his time and you could feel the horrors of it all. Had to get used to no chapters just journal entries but not a big deal. So glad I read it. 🥰
Definitely not the horror and action thriller you associate with Dracula in the modern sense. While it is a bit slow and dry I did enjoy the read and the last couple pages really tied it all together. Worthwhile to read due to its major impact on pop culture.
A great, timeless, and classic horror novel that absolutely should not be missed. Very beautifully written. My only gripe was the journal entry format. Made it difficult for me to engage.
I had to look over my shoulder about 27 times while reading. 1000% would do it again. *read along with audiobook*
