Dracula's Guest

Bag om Dracula's Guest

Dracula's Guest is a collection of short stories written by Bram Stoker, the author of the iconic horror novel, Dracula. The book is comprised of nine tales, eight of which were originally intended to be a part of the original Dracula manuscript, but were later edited out. The stories are all dark and eerie, and each one explores the themes of horror, mystery, and the supernatural.The title story, ""Dracula's Guest"", is about an Englishman who is traveling through Munich, Germany, on his way to Transylvania to meet with Count Dracula. While there, he decides to take a detour to explore a nearby cemetery, where he encounters a beautiful woman who seems to be in distress. The Englishman soon realizes that he has stumbled upon a nest of vampires, and he must fight for his life to escape.Other stories in the collection include ""The Judge's House"", which tells the tale of a young student who rents a house that is said to be haunted by the ghost of a cruel judge. ""The Squaw"" is a story about a man who becomes obsessed with a strange, beautiful woman he meets while traveling in the American West. And ""The Secret of the Growing Gold"" is a tale of greed and betrayal, in which a man discovers a mysterious plant that produces gold, but at a terrible cost.Overall, Dracula's Guest is a haunting and atmospheric collection of stories that showcases Bram Stoker's talent for creating suspenseful and chilling tales. Fans of horror and Gothic literature will find much to enjoy in this book.This is the complete collection (includes Drac Guest, Judge's House, as well as Burial of the Rats and others.)This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
