This is the original classic story of the famous vampire, Count Dracula.
I don't always like 19th century fiction, so I was pleasantly surprised that I did like this one, though it was longer than I thought. It is told primarily in the format of diary entries and letters. I did prefer the beginning of the story to the rest of it, as I found this part of the story, set in Dracula's castle in Transylvania, really intrigued me and it was the only part of the story that I found a little bit creepy. It was still, overall, pretty good, though. The ending was a bit anti-climactic, but I liked the short “eiplogue” provided.
