"I went down into the vaults. There lay the Count!
He was either dead or asleep, I could not say which - for the eyes were open and stony but without the glassiness of death."

The classic gothic horror story, presented in a totally engaging way through the immensley powerful illustrations. Staying true to the events of the original prose novel, this Quick Text edition features simplified and reduced dialogue to help reluctant readers and ELL students to engage with the text.

Designed to encourage readers to enjoy classical literature, titles in the Classical Comics range stay true to the original vision of the authors. They also offer alternative text versions to cater for different readership levels. This title has been moderately and sympathetically abridged from the original text to fit within the graphic novel format. Despite that, all of the events of the book are represented in every version – it’s only the speech and captions that change!

Like all of their titles, this Classical Comics production remains true to the original novel, and features incredible artwork that will engage any reader.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

The classic novel brought to life in full color!
Jonathan Harker’s business trip to Transylvania, to advise Count Dracula on the purchase of English property, soon turns into a living nightmare. Locked in Castle Dracula, Harker believes he will never return home to be with his beloved Mina. He heroically escapes, but is quickly dragged back into the Count’s evil world, as he becomes involved with Van Helsing’s plot to destroy the Prince of Darkness and his “un-dead” – for the benefit of all mankind.
Bram Stoker’s classic vampire tale is one of the greatest horror stories ever written. It first appeared in 1897 and rapidly gained momentum with Victorian readers. Its popularity grew through plays, further tales and later with movies, to the extent that the story and characters have become part of our culture. Now, using powerful, dynamic and dramatic artwork by the wonderfully talented Staz Johnson, we bring you an authentic adaptation of Stoker’s masterpiece in this full color graphic novel, for a reading experience you will never forget.
