Po příjezdu hradu se ocitá uprostřed řady děsivých událostí., ocitne se několikrát v ohrožení života. Hrabě se mu zdá divný od první chvíle, nic nejí ani nepije, jedná s ním pouze v noci, není vidět v zrcadle a zjevně ho dráždí pohled na krev – jen náhodný dotek křížku zachrání Harker a před Drákulou, když se řízne při holení. Harker se rozhodne utéct z podivného místa zpět domů do Londýna, kde se zanedlouho objeví i Drákula. Zběsilý lov na upíry může začít. Drákula okouzluje již několik generací čtenářů. Poprvé vyšel v roce 1897. Vampýři nejsou původním Stokerovým nápadem. Dávno existovali legendy o podivných bytostech, které se živily lidskou krví. Jednou s inspirací byla i novela irského autora Josepha Sheridana Le Fanu Carmilla. Stoker v románu vytvořil kompletní pravidla upírské existence a vlastně tím definoval „moderního upíra“ a rozproudil zájem o tuto tematiku.

Acting on behalf of his firm of solicitors, Jonathan Harker travels to the Carpathian Mountains to finalize the sale of England's Carfax Abbey to Transylvanian noble Count Dracula. Little does he realize that, in doing so, he endangers all that he loves. For Dracula is one of the Un-Dead--a centuries-old vampire who sleeps by day and stalks by night, feasting on the blood of his helpless victims. Once on English soil, the count sets his sights on Jonathan's circle of associates, among them his beloved wife Mina. To thwart Dracula's evil designs, Jonathan and his friends will have to accept as truth the most preposterous superstitions concerning vampires, and in the company of legendary vampire hunter Abraham Van Helsing, embark on an unholy adventure for which even their worst nightmares have not prepared them. First published in 1897, Bram Stoker's Dracula established the ground rules for virtually all vampire fiction written in its wake.

Súmračná krajina je v mnohom podobná tej našej, no dá sa do nej vstúpiť len v snoch. Žijú v nej bohabojní a mierumilovní ľudia, ktorí však z času na čas podľahnú márnomyseľnosti a hriechu. Vďaka ôsmim fantazijným poviedkam z pera slávneho írskeho dramatika a spisovateľa Brama Stokera (1847 - 1912) ju teraz môžeme navštíviť aj my a spoznať nástrahy, ktorým musia obyvatelia tejto nezvyčajnej krajiny čeliť. Ako všetky dobré rozprávky majú aj tieto príbehy mravoučný charakter, no autor ikonického románu Dracula ich navyše zaplnil množstvom hrôzostrašných situácií a krvilačných bytostí. Nie je v nich teda núdza o roztrieštené lebky, potoky krvi, hnijúce mŕtvoly, či zlovoľných duchov, neľútostných obrov, zákerné obludy i dobrotivých strážnych anjelov. Rozprávková zbierka Súmrak dňa (Under the Sunset) vyšla po prvý raz v roku 1881. Niektoré z poviedok sa už predtým objavili v literárnom časopise pre dospievajúcu mládež The Boy's Own Paper, ale pre knižné vydanie boli čiastočne upravené a zjemnené. Slovenský preklad vychádza z pôvodných verzií, ktoré majú oveľa hororovejší charakter a niektorí viktoriánski literárni kritici ich dokonca označili za nevhodné pre deti. "Necenzurovaný" text, ktorý je doslova prešpikovaný množstvom fantazijných a nonsensových prvkov, nám tak umožňuje vnímať autora najslávnejšieho "upírskeho" románu aj ako spoluzakladateľa žánru fantasy.

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.

eBook: Famous Impostors is a non-fiction work written by Bram Stoker, who is best known as the author of the horror classic 'Dracula' which was adapted into the legendary eponymous 1931 film starring Bela Lugosi.It is a witty tongue-in-cheek tribute to dozens of impostors and hoaxes throughout history. These notorious charlatans include eminent characters such as royal pretenders (take for instance Perkin Warbeck, who faked his way to King Henry VII's throne). Other characters include magicians, self-professed witches and clairvoyants, women masquerading as men and the like - the very stuff needed to set your mind whirling far and wide. This is a must-read for fans of the fantastic yet hilarious tales penned by Terry Pratchett, co-author of 'Good Omens', the TV adaptation of which stars Michael Sheen and David Tennant. Also a perfect pick for those captured by historical enigmas such as Harry Houdini, about whom the debate whether he is fact or fraud still rages on. -

STRHUJÍCÍ PREQUEL ODHALUJÍCÍ PRAPŮVOD SAMOTNÉHO HRABĚTE DRACULY | Píše se rok 1868 a jednadvacetiletý Bram Stoker se zabarikáduje v místnosti ve věži opuštěného kláštera. Je vyzbrojený zrcátky, krucifixy, svěcenou vodou, košíkem bílých růží a revolverem. Jedinou útěchou mu je láhev slivovice. Vroucně se modlí, aby přežil tuto noc. Času není nazbyt a on narychlo sepisuje znepokojivé události, které ho sem přivedly. Vypráví děsivý příběh o dětství v Dublinu, častých nemocech, záhadné chůvě, o lidech, kteří údajně zemřeli, a přesto žijí, o pověrách, z nichž se náhle stala realita. Neboť za zamčenými dveřmi čeká nelidská noční můra, s níž, jak doufal, skoncoval před lety… Po téměř sto padesáti letech od vydání Draculy se Dacre Stoker, praprasynovec Brama Stokera, vrací k původním deníkovým záznamům svého slavného předka a k záhadám a nezodpovězeným otázkám doprovázejícím toto výjimečné literární dílo. Na základě dokumentů z autorovy pozůstalosti vytvořili spolu s americkým spisovatelem J. D. Barkerem (autor románů Čtvrtá opice nebo Pátá oběť) mrazivý příběh, který čtenářům odhalí prapůvod samotného hraběte Draculy, jeho tvůrce i tajemné ženy, která je navždy spoutala k sobě.

Arthur Severn is holidaying in the town of Carnacliff, Ireland, when he meets a peasant girl in the fog and falls in love. But their social standing is not the only thing keeping them apart. The town's money lender, Black Murdock wants to take control of the land where Arthur has been staying and seems obsessed with finding a hidden treasure lost beneath the bog.
