Bram Stoker

Dracula-A Horror Story by Bram Stoker

Jonathan Harker, a young London solicitor (a lawyer) travels to Transylvania (modern-day Romania) to help a rich nobleman, Count Dracula, purchase an estate in England. Dracula is planning to immigrate to England, and wants Harker to help him hammer out all the legal details. Harker is at first impressed by Dracula's suave politeness, but is soon creeped out by the Count's uncanny ability to communicate with wolves and by the lack of servants-or anyone else-in the Count's huge castle. Soon after, Harker realizes that he's a prisoner in the castle.
