When Jonathan Harker visits Transylvania to help Count Dracula with the purchase of a London house, he makes a terrifying discoveries about Count Dracula. After the discovries, a number of disturbing incidents happens in England, a unmanned ship, strange marks on young woman’s necks and an inmate of the lunatic asylum talks about his “master”. This story is told in letters and diary form. The Story is told from different people prospective. In this Story Bram Stoker creates a classic i the horror genre and pop-culture. I loved the writing style, how the story was told, and how the story was carried by the characters and following their discovery of the vampire. I didn't think I would leave this book with tears.. but I did - I am also a softie when it comes to characters. Also Dr. Seward is my favourite.

“I am all in a sea of wonders. I doubt; I fear; I think strange things, which I dare not confess to my own soul.”
“I have a sort of empty feeling; nothing in the world seems of sufficient importance to be worth the doing.”
“I could not resist the temptation of mystifying him a bit, I suppose it is some taste of the original apple that remains still in our mouths.”
