Dracula
Bram Stoker's Dracula (1897) stands as one of the most influential Gothic novels ever written, told through a collage of journal entries, letters, and newspaper clippings that lend an unsettling authenticity to its supernatural narrative. The story follows Jonathan Harker, a young English solicitor, as he travels to the remote Carpathian Mountains to finalize a property transaction with the enigmatic Count Dracula, only to discover that his client harbors dark and terrifying secrets. Readers should expect a slow-building atmosphere of dread, exotic settings, and the gradual revelation of a supernatural threat that will challenge everything the characters believe about the world.
