First published in 1897, 'Dracula' is a gothic horror novel by Bram Stoker, an Irish author.

Harker soon discovers that he is being held prisoner and that Dracula has a rather disturbing nighttime life. Touching on themes such as Victorian culture, immigration, and colonialism, among others, this timeless classic is sure to keep readers on the edge of their seats.
