In Bram Stoker’s Dracula, the forces of good face off against an ancient evil—Count Dracula, the lord of the undead, as he travels from his crumbling castle in Transylvania to the teeming city of London in search of fresh blood. Filled with fascinating characters like the resourceful Mina Murray, the knowledgeable Professor Van Helsing, the crazed mental patient Renfield, and the diabolical count himself, the story is equal parts horror, mystery, and adventure. This collection adapts the entirety of Bram Stoker’s original novel into six student-friendly Reader’s Theater script-stories. The world of Dracula will suck you in!
