Blurb: "But my very feelings changed to repulsion and terror when I saw the whole man slowly emerge from the window and begin to crawl down the castle wall over the dreadful abyss, face down, with his cloak spreading out around him like great wings..."
The young lawyer Jonathan Harker thus a strong impression that all is not right with his new client, a Transylvanian count looking to buy a house in London. The plot of Dracula is familiar from hundreds of adaptations, but the original story - told through journal entries, letters, etc. - can yet shock and horrify, as when Harker describes the vampire in his coffin as "simply engorged with blood," looking "like a filthy leech."
