The Origins of Dracula: The Background to Bram Stoker's Gothic Masterpiece

Malcolm Ross, a young barrister, is awakened in the middle of the night and summoned to the house of famous Egyptologist Abel Trelawny at the request of his daughter, Margaret, with whom Malcolm is enamored. Once Malcolm arrives at the house, he meets Margaret, Superintendent Dolan, and Doctor Winchester, and learns why he has been called: Margaret, hearing strange noises from her father’s bedroom, woke to find him unconscious and bloodied on the floor of his room, under some sort of trance. Margaret reveals that her father had left a letter of strange instructions in the event of his incapacitation, stating that his body should not be removed from his room and must be watched at all times until he wakes up.

Bram Stoker bequeathed more than Dracula and other lesser-known novels when he died in April 1912. He had also written works of non-fiction, most notably Personal Reminiscences of Henry Irving and Famous Impostors. As for his numerous shorter pieces – articles, features, essays, interviews – most lay forgotten, unseen by modern readers. Some are now gathered in the present volume. Stoker sheds light on the workings of the theatre, on his admiration for the United States, and reveals much about himself in his interviews with the great and the good, from Winston Churchill to Arthur Conan Doyle.
