Opis
Count Dracula sleeps in a lordly tomb in the vaults beneath his desolate castle. His stony eyes are open. His cheeks have the flush of life beneath their pallor. On his lips - a mocking, sensuous smile and scarlet-fresh blood. He has been dead for centuries, yet he may never die...
Here begins the story of an evil ages old and forever new. It is the story of those who feed a diabolic craving into the veins of their victims, into the men and women from whose blood they draw their only sustenance. It is a novel of peculiar power, of hypnotic fascination. The reader is warned that he who enters Castle Dracula may not escape its baleful spell, even when he closes this book.

Dracula remains, today, a cornerstone of gothic-horror literature. Bram Stoker successfully created a novel that invokes as much a physical horror as a psychological one.
The most successful element, in my view, of this novel is the atmosphere. It dark, eerie and fully realised in all locations in which we are taken to. The opening section at Dracula's Castle was sublime, a masterclass in introducing a character and his machinations.
Whilst it does slow in the early-middle section of the Novel, its not enough to detract from what is, otherwise, a masterpiece of world building and storytelling.
