Description

Stoker’s gothic horror: supernatural terror, ancient evil, Victorian anxiety. Adam Salton meets Lady Arabella March on a remote estate and finds a serpent-worshipping priestess tied to a prehistoric white worm under the land. Gruesome deaths escalate; he and occult allies must confront the creature before destruction breaks. Folklore, vampirism, cosmic horror — good against primordial evil. Less restrained than Dracula; the grotesque and the uncanny spoken wild.

Author

Bram Stoker (1847–1912) wrote Dracula and then had to live in its shadow. An Irishman in London, he kept Irving's theatre running by day and, by night, invented a vampire who travels by timetable and feeds on paperwork as much as blood. The novel is a collage of voices; the monster is organised. Later cinema gave him a look; Stoker gave him a method. Twenty titles sit here, most of them quieter than the one that named a genre.
