Bram Stoker is primarily known as the author of Dracula, but he is also a master of small prose. Dracula's Guest is a collection of short stories first published in 1914, two years after his death. The title story, "Dracula's Guest", is a prologue to the famous novel "Dracula", which was removed from the final version of the book. It describes the journey of a young Englishman Jonathan Harker to Eastern Europe, where he encounters mysterious and terrible phenomena that foreshadow his meeting with Count Dracula. In addition to "Dracula's Guest", the collection contains other works filled with a gloomy atmosphere and supernatural events, demonstrating Stoker's skill in the genre of Gothic literature. The collection includes "The Judge's House", "The Squaw", "The Secret of the Growing Gold", "A Gipsy Prophecy", "The Coming of Abel Behenna", "The Burial of the Rats", "A Dream of Red Hands" and "Crooken Sands". This book will be a real gift for fans of classic horror and connoisseurs of Stoker's work, and will also allow you to enjoy the author's dark stories in the original without adaptation.
