Bøker av Bram Stoker

Drácula de Bram Stoker es una obra seminal de la literatura gótica. La narración se desarrolla a través de una serie de anotaciones en un diario, cartas y recortes de periódico, que proporcionan una perspectiva polifacética de los desgarradores acontecimientos que se suceden. La historia comienza con Jonathan Harker, un joven abogado inglés, que viaja al remoto castillo del Conde Drácula en Transilvania para ayudar en una transacción inmobiliaria. Sin embargo, a medida que Harker se adentra en los dominios de Drácula, es cada vez más consciente de la naturaleza ominosa y sobrenatural de su anfitrión.A medida que se desarrolla la trama y el escenario cambia a Inglaterra, los lectores se ven arrastrados a un mundo de suspense, horror y terror psicológico (la tensión culmina en un dramático enfrentamiento en el castillo de Drácula, donde las fuerzas del bien chocan con la encarnación del mal). Stoker entreteje con maestría los temas del miedo, los deseos prohibidos y el choque entre la modernidad y las antiguas supersticiones. La novela explora las profundas ansiedades de la sociedad victoriana, reflejando las tensiones culturales de la época.Drácula no es un mero relato de terror; es una profunda exploración de la psique humana, que ahonda en temas como el amor, el sacrificio y la eterna lucha entre la oscuridad y la luz. La prosa rica y evocadora de Stoker capta la atmósfera gótica, creando un impacto duradero en el género de terror.Esta edición presenta la visión original y desenfrenada de Stoker, permitiendo a los lectores sumergirse en el terror intemporal de Drácula.

Dracula's Guest (1914) is a collection of short stories by Irish author Bram Stoker. Edited and published by Florence, the author's wife, following Stoker's death only two years prior, Dracula's Guest helped to establish the Irish master of Gothic horror's reputation as a leading writer of the early-twentieth century. In "Dracula's Guest," an unnamed Englishman journeys by carriage into the countryside from his hotel in Munich to take in some of the local scenery. On the journey, his driver warns him of the dangers of Walpurgis Night only hours away, a time in which demons and ghosts are rumored to roam the land. Stopping near an abandoned village, the Englishman ignores his driver's unease and, sending the carriage back to Munich, makes his way into the hills alone. Lost in the dark, a sudden appearance of moonlight reveals his eerie surroundings--a dark and dreary cemetery. As a storm abruptly begins, he takes shelter in the doorway of a tomb, accidentally disturbing the entrance to reveal, at its center, the body of a beautiful, sleeping woman. In "The Judge's House," a scholar on holiday in a seaside town spends the night in a mysterious home, despite the warnings of locals who beg him not to stay at such a place. Dracula's Guest compiles nine works of short fiction by Bram Stoker, the secretive and vastly underrated creator of Dracula, one of history's greatest villains. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Bram Stoker's Dracula's Guest is a classic of Irish literature reimagined for modern readers.

Bram Stoker wrote a short story named "Dracula's Guest." A young Englishman is followed in "Dracula's Guest" as he travels to Transylvania. The young guy subsequently leaves his carriage and walks off, disregarding the hotel owner's advice to arrive on time. After a few hours, it starts to snow as he approaches a barren valley; as a dark storm intensifies, he seeks refuge in a forest of cypress and yew trees. Soon, the moonlight reveals his location as a cemetery, and he finds himself in front of a marble tomb with a huge iron spike embedded in the roof. The Englishman's problems are still far from over. As he slowly comes to his senses after the ordeal, he experiences a feeling of disgust that he associates with a warm sensation in his chest and the licking of his throat. The horsemen who first discover the Englishman unconscious in a tomb describe him as an animal that is "a wolf-and yet not a wolf." Additionally, they observe that blood is on the tomb while his neck is unblooded. When the men later return the Englishman to his hotel, they tell him that it was none other than his eager host Count Dracula who had sent a telegram warning the Maître d'hôtel of "dangers from snow and wolves and night."

"Mit dem Mondlicht kam ein wildes Säuseln des Sturms, der mit einem langen, tiefen Heulen wie von unzähligen Hunden oder Wölfen wieder anzuschwellen schien. Ich war von Furcht erfüllt, wie erstarrt und konnte die Kälte spürbar zunehmen fühlen, bis sie in mein Herz eingedrungen zu sein schien." Von schaurigen Friedhofsbegegnungen über dramatischen Verfolgungsjagden bis zu unheimlichen Mördern und mysteriösen Todesfällen ist in dieser Sammlung alles dabei. Gruselfans kommen auf ihre Kosten und streifen mit den Protagonisten der jeweiligen neun Geschichten durch scheinbar totenstille Städte und zwielichtige Gassen. Posthum wurden diese Kurzgeschichten veröffentlicht von der Witwe von Abraham "Brahm" Stoker (1847-1912). "Draculas Gast" ist ein Ausschnitt aus der ursprünglichen Version von "Dracula", an welchem er sieben Jahre lang schrieb und der ihm zu weltweitem Ruhm verhalf. Heutzutage gilt Bram Stoker als Gründer des modernen Vampirmythos.
