Dracula by Bram Stoker Summary From The Publisher

Bram Stoker’s gothic horror masterpiece pits good against evil and life against death, all under the thrall of the original vampire… Count Dracula sleeps in a silent tomb beneath his desolate castle. His eyes are stony and his cheeks are deathly pale. But on his lips, there is a mocking smile–and a trickle of fresh blood. He has been dead for centuries, yet he may never die… Here begins the most celebrated vampire story in history, a tale of age-old evil that is forever new. With its haunting mix of suspense and horror, Bram Stoker’s Dracula is a novel of compelling power. Reader, be warned: once you enter Castle Dracula, you might not escape its baleful spell–even after you close this book.

About Author, Bram Stoker

Born in 1847 in Dublin, Ireland, Bram Stoker grew up in a home where his mother loved to tell him horror stories.  Known to take ill often, Bram stayed in bed while his mother offered stories as entertainment.

In college, Bram freelanced as a journalist and a theater critic.  He attended Trinity College Dublin–which as we know is a bookworm’s dream destination. 

Stoker married aspiring actress, Balcome, and together they had one child. Bram Stoker wrote 18 books before he died at the age of 64.

Time Magazine wrote more about the history behind Dracula. You can also find free Stoker books downloads here.
