About this ebook

Enter a chilling world of blood, shadow, and timeless suspense in Bram Stoker’s definitive masterwork.

This new edition of Dracula, offering the complete text of the original book with more than 50 original illustrations in the form of horizontal and vertical panels, spot illustrations, and ornate borders by Becky Cloonan, will delight Dracula fans.

Bram Stoker unfolds the harrowing tale through an intricate mosaic of private diaries, letters, and urgent telegrams. The narrative follows solicitor Jonathan Harker into the treacherous Borgo Pass, stranding him inside the Count’s forbidding castle.

London and the wind-swept coast of Whitby soon become the hunting grounds of the ancient vampire, where Professor Van Helsing rallies a small circle of allies to repel the spreading darkness.

This is a Dracula we've never seen before—contemporary, edgy, stylishly macabre with Victorian overtones, and an unusual color palette.

  • Gothic Horror: From the eerie shipwreck of the Demeter on the Yorkshire coast to midnight vigils over consecrated tombs, ancient dread collides with modern science.
  • Multiple POV: The chilling tale unfolds through Lucy Westenra’s intimate letters, Dr. Seward’s phonograph recordings, and clinical notes detailing the unsettling appetites of the asylum patient Renfield.
  • Race Against Time: Armed with Winchester rifles and sacred wafers, Van Helsing’s band must track fifty earth-filled boxes across land and water before the setting sun restores their enemy’s power.
  • Victorian London: A foreign predator establishes a sprawling stronghold at the Carfax estate in Purfleet, slipping unseen into bustling city streets and suburban sanctuaries.
