Dracula’s Guest and Other Stories

Summary

Best known for his masterpiece of horror, Dracula, Bram Stoker wrote a number of other novels and many short stories, all with supernatural themes or filled with a physical terror reminiscent of Poe. Dracula’s Guest was originally part of the great novel but was excised and published separately. Some of these stories, such as “The Squaw,” “The Judge’s House,” and “The Burial of the Rats,” rank very high among classic tales of the macabre. These stories deserve to be better known for the light they shed on the enigmatic author of one of the world’s supreme literary adventures into the realm of nightmare.
