Description
Dracula's Guest follows an Englishman (who is presumed to be Jonathan Harker) on a visit to Munich before leaving for Transylvania. In spite of the hotelier's warning to not return late, the young man later leaves his carriage and wanders toward the direction of an abandoned "unholy" village. As the carriage departs with the frightened and superstitious Transylvanian Saxon driver, a tall and thin stranger scares the horses at the crest of a hill. He soon finds himself before a marble tomb with a large iron stake driven through the roof The Englishman is disturbed to be in such a place on such a night and as the storm breaks anew, he is forced by pelting hail to shelter in the doorway of the tomb. It is widely believed that Dracula's Guest is actually the deleted first chapter from the original Dracula manuscript, which the publisher felt was superfluous to the story. Bram Stoker has produced yet another captivating vampire story in Dracula's guest which every horror story reader will love.
