About the Book: Dracula is the towering centrepiece of this collection, an epistolary masterpiece told through letters, diary entries, newspaper clippings, and ship logs. It traces Count Dracula's journey from his Transylvanian castle to the streets of Victorian London, and the desperate fight waged against him by Jonathan Harker, Mina Murray, Dr Seward, and Professor Van Helsing. First published in 1897, Stoker's novel established many of the conventions that continue to define vampire fiction today, blending folklore, emerging science, and primal fear into a narrative that still unsettles modern readers.

Across every tale, Stoker's command of mood and pacing shines, building suspense through careful detail rather than shock alone.

This sprayed-edge hardback edition presents the text in a durable, attractively finished binding,
