The bones were still warm; but they were picked clean. They had even eaten their own dead

This spine-chilling collection from Dracula creator Bram Stoker showcases five haunting tales, including the newly discovered 'Gibbet Hill'. From 'Dracula's Guest', thought by many to be the original excised opening of Dracula itself, to the sinister 'The Judge's House,' each gripping story will leave you breathless, perhaps afraid to turn out the lights. Dare you explore the darkness?

Abraham 'Bram' Stoker (1847 - 1912) was educated at Trinity College, Dublin and joined the Irish Civil Service before his love of theatre led him to become the unpaid drama critic for the Dublin Mail. He went on to act as as manager and secretary for the actor Sir Henry Irving, while writing his novels, the most famous of which is Dracula.
