of blood curdling incidents as we remember to have seen...
Dracula cannot be called a pleasant tale - there is too much
of the weird and ghoulish about it for that; but it shows considerable
imaginative power, and is possibly the most successful, as it is certainly the
most ambitious, of Mr. Stoker's efforts."--Westminster Gazette
"In a word,
Dracula is a thrilling supernatural romance, which those who
surrender themselves to Mr. Bram Stoker's hypnotic influence - and it is
difficult to withstand it - must find it absorbing."
--The Sketch
"Dracula is a novel that Edgar Allan
Poe might have written. It is a weird story, in which the supernatural is
skillfully blended with ordinary events and ordinary people."--The Era
"There are a hundred nightmares in
Dracula, and each is more uncanny than the last."--St. James's Gazette
"I soon became horribly enthralled, and
could not choose but read on - on - until the lights burned blue and my blood
ran cold."--The Referee
"In seeking a parallel to this weird,
powerful, and horrible story, our mind reverts to such tales as The
Mysteries of Udolpho, Frankenstein,
Wuthering Heights, The Fall of the House of
Usher, and Margery of Quether. But
Dracula is even more appalling in its gloomy fascination
than any one of these... the eerie chapters are written and strung together with
very considerable art and cunning, and also with unmistakable literary
power."--The Daily Mail
"It is about as fine a collection of blood curdling incidents as we remember to have seen...
