| Plot Summary of Dracula |
"Written in the form of many diaries and letters, Dracula tells the tale of six people of different nationalities, brought together to destroy one of the most evil forces man has ever known: Count Dracula the Vampire. Travelling to London, Dracula finds Mina Harker and he believes her to be a reincarnation of the wife he lost so long ago, and he will stop at nothing to have her. Mina is unaware he is the one her husband hunts for, and little does she know exactly how much this man is destorying bit by bit the pieces of her life. Thrilling and terrifying, Dracula is beautifully written and a quintessential classic."
Meredith Griffin, Resident Scholar
