Dracula is a Gothic horror novel by Irish author Bram Stoker. It introduced the character of Count Dracula and established many conventions of subsequent vampire fantasy. The novel tells the story of Dracula's attempt to move from Transylvania to England so that he may find new blood and spread the undead curse of the battle between Dracula and a small group of people led by Professor Abraham Van Helsing.

Dracula has been assigned to many literary genres, including vampire literature, horror fiction, gothic fiction, and invasion literature. The novel has spawned numerous theatrical, film, and television interpretations.

The overall condition of this book is very good for a volume bound well over half a century ago. The slipcase does have some wear and age. The book itself is very clean, especially for being printed well over a half-century ago. It displays some normal shelf wear and age but is very well-preserved.
