Dracula: Introduction and Notes by Dr David Rogers, Kingston University. 'There he lay looking as if youth had been half-renewed, for the white hair and moustache were changed to dark iron-grey, the cheeks were fuller, and the white skin seemed ruby-red underneath; the mouth was redder than ever, for on the lips were gouts of fresh blood, which trickled from the corners of the mouth and ran over the chin and neck. Even the deep, burning eyes seemed set amongst the swollen flesh, for the lids and pouches underneath were bloated.It seemed as if the whole awful creature were simply gorged with blood; he lay like a filthy leech, exhausted with his repletion.'Thus Bram Stoker, one of the greatest exponents of the supernatural narrative, describes the demonic subject of his chilling masterpiece Dracula, a truly iconic and unsettling tale of vampirism. Dracula's Guest & Other Stories: Edited and Introduced by David Stuart Davies.

„Temné síly představují jeden z největších objevů v dlouhé historii draculovského příběhu...“ píše ve své předmluvě John E. Browning, expert v oblasti hororového a upírského žánru.Jedná se o unikátní verzi mistrovského krvavého díla Brama Stokera, která vyšla v roce 1899 ve Švédsku. Je to kniha dvojnásobného rozsahu než klasický román z roku 1897 a také podstatně víc nabitá erotikou i násilím. Není pochyb o tom, že se Bram Stoker na vzniku Temných sil podílel, ať už vědomě, či nevědomě.Setkáváme se zde se spoustou postav a motivů, které najdeme ve Stokerových poznámkách k Draculovi, z konečné verze je však autor vyškrtl. Literární vědci se shodují na tom, že Temné síly vycházejí z rané verze klasického Draculy. Následně byl román v podstatně zkrácené podobně přeložen do islandštiny, originál je však toto!Milovníci Draculy i noví čtenáři dostávají do rukou značně odlišný příběh se zcela novým koncem. Hrabě Dracula nehodlá pouze rozšířit upíří krev do celého světa, ale v rámci spiknutí se světovými mocnáři chystá nastolení fašistického světového řádu spjatého s uctíváním pohanských bohů při krvavých obřadech.A po draculovském hradu v Karpatech se prochází Bílá paní, neodolatelná kráska, která se svými polibky pokouší vlákat advokátního koncipienta Tomase Harkera do tenat zkázy.

As fledgling English lawyer Jonathan Harker treks into the Carpathian Mountains to complete a real estate transaction, frightened peasants warn him of horrible dangers that await him. Harker, terrified by eerie events along the way, finally meets his client, Count Dracula, a tall, gaunt old man with a surprisingly powerful handshake. Harker soon realizes that he is a prisoner in Dracula’s sumptuously furnished castle—a castle strangely devoid of mirrors. Later, as fifty coffin-size boxes are brought into the castle in preparation for Dracula’s departure, Harker knows that the count plans to do more in London than see the sights—and fears that the rational modern world is ill-equipped to recognize, let alone defeat, the count.

The last I saw of Count Dracula was his kissing his hand to me, with a red light of triumph in his eyes, and with a smile that Judas in hell might be proud of. Dracula is a preeminent work of horror literature, containing one of the best gothic villains of all time. When Jonathan Harker stays with Count Dracula in his crumbling Transylvanian castle, he is greatly unsettled by the man. After enduring a series of bizarre events, Harker realises he is being imprisoned by the Count and barely escapes with his life. Meanwhile, a similarly curious set of circumstances are happening in England: A huge wolf-like creature is seen to leap from the deck of a Russian ship with a mysteriously absent crew; a young woman develops a strange wasting disease and red marks on her throat; a patient at the lunatic asylum experiences increasingly strange delusions. A small band of heroes set to investigate these worrying events, led by Doctor Van Helsing who consults ancient texts to discover the chilling enormity of what they face...

Dracula je nepochybne jednou z "ikonografických" postáv popkultúry 20. storočia. O jeho nesmiernej obľube svedčí neuveriteľne vysoký počet nových reedícií na celom svete, ale aj neustály záujem filmárov, divadelníkov, či autorov grafických noviel, ktorý neutícha ani viac ako sto rokov od "narodenia" tejto svojráznej literárnej postavy.Tento zdanlivo jednorozmerný príbeh sa dá čítať viacerými spôsobmi - nie je to iba strašidelno-dobrodružná story s typickými rekvizitami fin de si?cle, ale aj romantický, milostný príbeh o nenaplnenosti, šifrovaná psychoanalytická hádanka a v neposlednom rade skvelá mystifikácia.V pôvodnej a neskrátenej podobe vychádza Dracula na Slovensku po prvý raz.

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 ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Audiokniha: Nine steps have led us to the final stage – right into the heart of the Darkness. Aptly enough, the iconic author from Ireland is on the doorstep; Bram Stoker – and with his Dracula to boot. Well, wait a second – not exactly, to be honest. Dracula’s Guest is one of the stories published only after Stoker’s death, and even though Dracula is in the title, he will not make it into the story. Interestingly enough, Jonathan Harker, the actual guest – also does not appear. This short story is actually an original introduction to Dracula. It is a slightly altered version of a chapter of the novel that was discarded during preparations for print. The final story is The Room in the Tower, by Edward Frederic Benson. Strange, unsettling atmosphere is present right from the beginning, and it intensifies via recurrent nightmares – right up to the shocking climax of the final scene. As in all previous audiobooks, actors’ performances and music make for a perfect mix, combining to take you on the horror ride promised by the cover.
