Romantic and Horrific Stories
Romantic and Horrific Stories (2021) is a collection of short fiction by Bram Stoker. Although he is largely remembered as the author of Dracula (1897), one of the greatest horror novels of all time, Stoker was a versatile writer whose gift for transmitting terror is matched by his ability to craft convincing and moving tales of love. “The Crystal Cup,” first published in London Society in 1872, is the story of an artist who is forced to create a flawless crystal vase for the king. Having left his wife and home behind, he suffers under a series of constraints and grueling demands. “The Chain of Destiny” is a bestselling epistolary tale featuring hypnotism, magic, and supernatural elements that first appeared in The Shamrock in 1875. In Stoker’s 1898 tale “Bengal Roses,” A teenager from the country falls for a beautiful young woman, but soon discovers she loves an older cavalry officer. First published in Lloyd’s Weekly Newspaper in 1899, “A Yellow Duster” is the story of two old men whose lifelong friendship is threatened by a mysterious secret. Curious about a dust rag found in his friend’s display case, the story’s protagonist asks the collector of rare and priceless objects why he has preserved something so seemingly worthless. Other stories collected herein include “Our New House,” published in the Boston Herald in 1895, as well as “The Burial of the Rats” and “A Dream of Red Hands,” both of which appeared in Dracula’s Guest and Other Stories (1914). Romantic and Horrific Stories compiles a dozen works of short fiction by Bram Stoker, the secretive and vastly underrated creator of Dracula, one of history’s greatest villains. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Bram Stoker’s Romantic and Horrific Stories is a classic of Irish literature reimagined for modern readers.

Dracula ( Annotated)
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.

During a business visit to Count Dracula''s castle in Transylvania, a young English solicitor finds himself at the center of a series of horrifying incidents.

Harker returns home upon his escape from Dracula''s grim fortress, but a friend''s strange malady - involving sleepwalking, inexplicable blood loss, and mysterious throat wounds - initiates a frantic vampire hunt. The popularity of Bram Stoker''s 1897 horror romance is as deathless as any vampire.
