Dracula's Guest: A Spine-Chilling Prelude to Dracula - A Forgotten Tale of Terror (Deluxe Hardbound Edition)

Dracula's Guest is Bram Stoker's lost chapter-a sinister and atmospheric short story originally intended as the opening to his legendary novel Dracula. In this eerie and suspenseful tale, an unnamed Englishman (widely believed to be Jonathan Harker) finds himself caught in a terrifying web of old-world folklore, spectral warnings, and a creeping evil that foreshadows the nightmare to come.

On the eve of Walpurgis Night-a time when the veil between worlds is thinnest-he ignores local warnings and enters a frozen cemetery in the heart of Bavaria. What he finds there is a glimpse into the ancient forces that await him in Transylvania. The howling winds, ominous tombs, and spectral presence lurking beneath the moonlight make this short tale one of Stoker's most chilling works.

This modern translation restores Stoker's language for the contemporary reader, sharpening the tension and dread while preserving the gothic atmosphere that made Dracula a literary monument.
