  In this chapter, the story shifts to Dr. John Seward’s perspective as he grows alarmed over Lucy Westenra’s rapidly worsening condition. Despite care and rest, Lucy grows paler and weaker by the day, her vitality draining as if from some unseen nightly visitor. Seward’s medical expertise cannot explain the strange marks on her throat, nor her unsettling habit of wandering in her sleep. 
  Desperate to help her, Seward writes to his friend — Lucy’s fiancé, Arthur Holmwood — urging him to return to Whitby at once. But Arthur is tied up with his gravely ill father, leaving Seward to act alone. Recognizing that Lucy’s illness lies beyond conventional medicine, he sends for his old mentor, the brilliant and enigmatic Professor Abraham Van Helsing. 
  A sense of dread deepens as nightfall continues to bring danger. Something sinister is feeding on Lucy’s life, and the arrival of Van Helsing marks the beginning of a new battle — one waged not only with science, but with ancient forces that defy reason. 
  This is Chapter 10 of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne — part of a complete chapter-by-chapter audiobook experience capturing the Gothic suspense, emotional stakes, and creeping supernatural terror of this classic novel. 
  📖 Public domain text. Original publication: 1897.

  A Northanger Abbey Double...

  A woman visits a haunted castle, and two friends share tales of the supernatural in these two gothic novels featured in Jane Austen’s Northanger Abbey. In Jane Austen’s Northanger Abbey, the main character, Catherine, receives a reading list of gothic novels. Once thought to be fabricated by Austen, these novels were rediscovered in the 1920s and are now referred to as the “Northanger Horrid Novels.” Two of the Northanger Horrid Novels, The Castle of Wolfenbach and The Necromancer, are presented here as A Northanger Double Feature.  With hidden identities, damsels in distress, creepy castles, and villainous Counts, The Castle of Wolfenbach (1793) is a showcase for the gothic genre. The story follows the beautiful Matilda as she escapes unwanted advances, braves the haunted castle, and attempts to find safety, and maybe even love, all while being pursued by her murderous uncle. The Castle of Wolfenbach is Eliza Parsons’s most famous novel and an important foundational work in the gothic genre. The Necromancer (1794) is by far the strangest of the Northanger Horrid Novels. The story begins with two friends, Herman and Hellfried, passing a stormy night by exchanging supernatural stories. The weirdness continues to unfold through a series of letters. The work is an example of the gothic genre’s use of framing narratives surrounding first person accounts from multiple characters. The Necromancer takes this trope to staggering heights by nesting multiple narratives inside each other. The resulting stories are a bizarre collection of violence and supernatural shenanigans centered around the mysterious Valkert, who is rumored to have returned from the dead.  Both of these stories are amazing examples of early gothic works and can be enjoyed as such for fans of the genre or read as a companion to Austen’s Northanger Abbey.

  Muckross Abbey and Other Stories

  "I binge-read this book, savoring the gothic creepiness at the heart of each tale. Packed with compelling, nuanced lives and the deaths that haunt them, each story is a séance—an invitation for unsettled spirits to let their presence be known, 'desperate for someone to supply the narrative.' Murray supplies it with great style and an uncanny knowingness, leaving room for our imagination to fill in the suggestive spaces with our own dark dread." —MONA AWAD, author of All's Well 
   
   
   
  Sabina Murray has long been celebrated for her mastery of the gothic. Now in Muckross Abbey and Other Stories, she returns to the genre, bringing listeners to haunted sites from a West Australian convent school to the moors of England to the shores of Cape Cod in ten strange tales that are layered, meta, and unforgettable. 
   
     
   
  From a twisted recasting of Daphne du Maurier's Rebecca, to an actor who dies for his art only to haunt his mother's house, to the titular "Muckross Abbey," an Irish chieftain burial site cursed by the specter of a flesh-eating groom—in this collection Murray gives us painters, writers, historians, and nuns all confronting the otherworldly in fantastically creepy ways. With notes of Wharton and James, Stoker and Shelley, now drawn into the present, these macabre stories are sure to captivate and chill.

  And Foltchain of the Oak is missing. 
  The timing is bad, as his college buddy Juvie has just arrived in town to ensure Kellan enjoys a long-overdue vacation, while Phoebe, a hamadryad and childhood friend who now works as the receptionist for Kellan Oakes Investigations, needs help that only Foltchain can provide.  
  As the three of them work together to locate Kellan’s mother, they must also unravel the true nature of the Deep Woods’ new affliction and its connection to Foltchain’s absence.  
  The fates of at least two worlds, and countless lives, hang in the balance …
