The Complete Works of Bram Stoker - Mesmerizing Tales of Terror and Suspense in Victorian Gothic Literature

Bram Stoker

Summary

In "The Complete Works of Bram Stoker," readers are invited into the expansive literary universe of one of Victorian literature'Äôs most enigmatic figures. This comprehensive collection encapsulates not only Stoker's most renowned work, the iconic horror novel "Dracula," but also his lesser-known short stories, non-fiction, and theatrical works. Through his vivid prose and gothic narrative style, Stoker explores themes of love, mortality, and the supernatural, set against a backdrop of Victorian anxieties about modernity and sexuality. His blending of folklore, myth, and psychological depth marks a significant contribution to the genres of horror and suspense, making him an influential precursor to later 20th-century writers. Born in 1847 in Dublin, Ireland, Bram Stoker'Äôs rich literary output is deeply influenced by his experiences, including a formative friendship with the actor Henry Irving and his engagements with the cultural and political discourses of his time. Stoker'Äôs background in theater and his detailed study of Eastern European folklore provided him with a unique perspective that he deftly weaves through his narratives, enhancing their authenticity and psychological resonance. I highly recommend "The Complete Works of Bram Stoker" for anyone interested in the roots of gothic literature and the complexities of human fear and desire. This collection serves not only as an essential reference for scholars of gothic fiction but also as an engrossing experience for casual readers seeking to delve into the darkly enchanting world crafted by Stoker's masterful storytelling.

Dracula The Lost Manuscript

Bram Stoker

Dracula, a Gothic novel by Bram Stoker, published in 1897, is derived from old vampire legends and is the basis for an entire genre of literature and film. Dracula, the archetypal vampire, is depicted in the novel as having been the origin of the many werewolf legends. The willowy count is believed to have been inspired by the 15th-century Vlad the Impaler, and by Sir Henry Irving, an actor for whom Stoker was a personal assistant. One of Dracula's most iconic powers is his ability to turn others into vampires by biting them and thus infecting them with the vampiric disease. Stoker's novel takes the form of an epistolary tale, in which Count Dracula's characteristics, powers are narrated by multiple narrators. Count Dracula is an undead, centuries-old vampire, and Transylvanian nobleman descended from Attila the Hun. He inhabits a decaying castle in the Carpathian Mountains near the Borgo Pass. Dracula is devilishly handsome and charismatic, with a veneer of dark aristocratic charm. Likewise, he possesses supernatural abilities gained through his intimate dealings with the Devil. Dracula does not cast a shadow or reflect in mirrors. He can defy gravity and possesses superhuman agility, able to climb vertical surfaces upside down. In the novel he also has great hypnotic, telepathic and illusionary powers. This is the rare, long lost original 1897 manuscript - published here for the first time.

Generations ago, the founders of the idyllic town of Lake Argen made a deal with a dark force. In exchange for their service, the town will stay prosperous and successful, and keep outsiders out. And for generations, it's worked out great. Until a visitor goes missing, and his wealthy family sends a private investigator to find him, and everything abruptly goes sideways. 
 
 
 
Now, Cassidy Prewitt, town baker and part-time servant of the dark force (it's a family business) has to contend with a rising army of darkness, a very frustrated town, and a very cute PI who she might just be falling for . . . and who might just be falling for her. And if they can survive their own homegrown apocalypse, they might even just find happiness together. 
 
 
 
Queer, cozy, and with a touch of eldritch horror mixed in just for fun, this is a charming love story about a small-town baker, a quick-witted PI, and, yes, an ancient evil.
