Abraham Stoker (1847-1912), better known by his pen name Bram Stoker, was an Irish theatre manager, writer, novelist and Freemason. He became famous as the author of Dracula (1897), an epistolary Gothic horror novel widely considered a landmark in vampire literature. The work deeply influenced future representations of fictional vampiric characters, and Stoker came to be regarded by many as "the father of vampire fiction".Dracula's Guest, the short horror story by Bram Stoker which we offer to our readers today, was first published posthomously in the short story collection Dracula's Guest and Other Weird Stories (1914). It is also known by the alternative titles Dracula's Daughter, Walpurgis Night and The Dream in the Dead House.The story concerns an unnamed young Englishman who is visiting Munich on his way to a meeting with Dracula in Transylvania. During a walk in the countryside he has mysterious encounters with a beautiful woman asleep in a tomb and with a wolf.
