Dracula is an 1897 Gothic horror novel that tells the story of Dracula''s attempt to move from Transylvania to England so that he may find new blood and spread the undead curse. While a small group of men and a woman led by Professor Abraham Van Helsing battle against Dracula. "Oh, the terrible struggle that I have had against sleep so often of late; the pain of the sleeplessness, or the pain of the fear of sleep, and with such unknown horror as it has for me! How blessed are some people, whose lives have no fears, no dreads; to whom sleep is a blessing that comes nightly, and brings nothing but sweet dreams." ― Bram Stoker, Dracula

In 1897, Bram Stoker took central European folk tales and turned them into one of the most famous horror books of all time. But the CW isn''t going to be speccing a script about this guy anytime soon--at least, not Dracula as Stoker wrote him. Stoker''s Dracula isn''t young and sparkly-hot; he''s creepy, old, and has a penchant for turning into bats and clouds of mist.Creepy, old, and occasionally downright boring (just stop with the train schedules, Mina)--yes. But just like some vampire stories we could name coughVampireDiaries cough, Dracula is a lot more interesting to talk about than it is to read. Just like today, vampires in 1897 stood in for a lot of contemporary fears and anxieties. Except while the vampire craze of the 2000s can be read as representing fears of corruption and conspiracy theories, ye olde turn-of-the-century bloodsuckers represented the increasing globalization of London, the risks of sexual activity, or even the increasing presence of technology.That''s right: technology. Just like that creaky rom-com You''ve Got Mail hinges on the wacky new technology of email, Dracula hinges on telegraphs, typewriters, and phonographs--only with much more gruesome results.Here''s the quick version: Count Dracula leaves his native Transylvania (modern-day Romania, in southeastern Europe) to immigrate to England--presumably to feed on the "teeming millions" in the huge capital city of London. "Invasion literature," or literature that had to do with monsters invading the British Empire (which, at that point, still covered a lot of the world beyond the British Isles), was ridiculously popular at the time. Authors like Rudyard Kipling, H.G. Wells, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle all wrote sensational adventure stories about fantastic creatures or threatening monsters from around the world. Stoker didn''t think of himself as a great artist; he was primarily a businessman. He managed the famous Lyceum Theatre in London. Stoker only wrote novels to pay the bills (hah! the idea of writing novels to pay the bills is insane). Honestly, he''d probably be astonished at the lasting impact Dracula has had. He wrote it in a piecemeal, haphazard way--a little here, a little there.At the time it came out in 1897, it was popular and well-received, but hardly a blockbuster hit. It wasn''t until later in the 20th century, when film versions of the novel started to appear, that the novel''s popularity really skyrocketed and its impact on popular culture became crystal-clear. Basically every bloodsucker in literature--from Twilight''s Edward Cullen to True Blood''s Eric Northman to Anne Rice''s Lestat & Co. to Sesame Street''s The Count--owes their life (or undeath) to Bram Stoker and his xenophobic tale of one Romanian count seducing proper English ladeez.In other words, Dracula is the super-hideous great-great-grandpappy of Bella Swan.

Bram Stoker’s initial notes and outlines for his landmark horror novel Dracula were auctioned at Sotheby’s in London in 1913 and eventually made their way to the Rosenbach Museum and Library in Philadelphia, where they are housed today. Until now, few of the 124 pages have been transcribed or analyzed. This painstaking work reproduces the handwritten notes both in facsimile and in annotated transcription. It also includes Stoker’s typewritten research notes and thoroughly analyzes all of the materials, which range from Stoker’s thoughts on the novel’s characters and settings to a nine-page calendar of events that includes most of the now-familiar story. Ample annotations guide readers through the construction of the novel and the changes that were made to its structure, plot, setting and characters. Nine appendices provide insight into Stoker’s personal life, his other works and his early literary influences.
