Jonathan Harker, a young solicitor, is summoned by the mysterious Count Dracula to his castle in Transylvania to finalise a property deal. Little does Harker suspect to the count he is unleashing a terrible evil on his fellow countrymen. Against this threat, Dr Van Helsing forms his team of vampire slayers, pitting telegrams, trains and revolvers against Dracula's army of ghouls and lunatics. In this atory of a prim and arrogant society threatened by a supernatural force, Stoker captured the fears of his age. Dracula represents everything the Victorians feared: the irrational, the pagan, the erotic and the foreign. Dracula has been imitated and adapted for cinema many times. Is remains as exciting and relevant today as when first piblished in 1897
