Dracula (PB) by Bram Stoker

Some books simply belong on a rainy afternoon, tucked into a corner chair while the wind whistles off the cove. This is one of them.

Sensual, dark, and thrilling, Bram Stoker’s Dracula remains the seminal work of Gothic fiction—the novel that gave us the vampire as we know him, and countless sleepless nights since.

When Jonathan Harker is summoned to Transylvania to finalize a property deal for the mysterious Count Dracula, he stumbles upon an ancient evil he is entirely unprepared to face. And when that evil sails to the shores of England, an entire nation falls under threat. Only an aging vampire hunter, Professor Abraham Van Helsing, can hope to put a stop to the bloodshed.

Told through letters, diary entries, and newspaper clippings, this epistolary masterpiece pulls you in like a tide. You piece the horror together right alongside the characters—which is exactly what makes it so wonderfully unnerving. More than a century on, it still holds the power to raise the hairs on the back of your neck.

This edition is part of the beautiful series of pocket-sized paperbacks from Macmillan Collector’s Library, celebrating the very best of Gothic and horror literature—teeming with monsters, misfits, and ghosts. Small enough to slip into a coat pocket. Lovely enough to keep on the shelf forever.

Pour a cup of something warm. Dracula is waiting.
