Dracula Bram Stoker combined Central
European folk tales of nosferatu, or the undead,
with historical accounts of the prince
of the fifteenth century, Vlad the Impaler,
who allegedly impaled 100,000 victims and
received the epithet Dracula (a derivative of
the Romanian drac or "devil"). Critics have
seen the vampirism of history as a Victorian
literary sublimation of sexuality.
A sequel to the 2009 original Dracula:
The Un-Dead, based on the novelist's notes
and excisions, was written by Dacre Stoker
(author's great-grandson) and Ian Holt. It
was set in London in 1912 and featured
Bram Stoker as a character. You may want
to know another novel genre like The
Feather Pillow, which is also creepy.
Bram Stoker's novel Dracula takes place
with young real estate lawyer Jonathan
Harker and his trip to Romania to complete
negotiations with Count Dracula of Transylvania.
Arriving at the mansion, he began
to detail strange behaviors in the Count,
such as his disappearances at night, lack of
appetite, and reflection in the mirrors.
