London lawyer Jonathan Harker travels to Transylvania at the request of Count Dracula, who has purchased a house in London and wishes to finalize the transaction through his solicitor. During his journey, Harker encounters strange occurrences, including a local woman who gives him a rosary for protection. Upon arriving in Bistritz, he takes a coach and is picked up by a driver at Borgo Pass, who takes him to the Count's residence. The initial days are calm, but Harker is instructed not to enter certain rooms, a request he promises to honor. He soon notices that the Count has no reflection and exhibits a ravenous expression at the sight of blood when Harker accidentally cuts himself while shaving. The Count's unsettling appearance, with long white teeth and strikingly red lips, fills Harker with dread, leading him to fear for his life. The Count compels him to send seemingly innocuous letters to his fiancée and employer, while offering Harker a chance to escape, though he is too terrified to pass by the wolves under the Count's control.

Während einer Ausfahrt ins Umland von München gelangt ein Engländer auf den Friedhof eines verlassenen Dorfes. Dort wird es auf turbulente Weise gruselig, eine Vampirin fällt ihn an, ein weißer Wolf leckt seine Kehle, und auf Geheiß von Graf Dracula werden bayerische Kavalleristen in Marsch gesetzt.

"Mit dem Mondlicht kam ein wildes Säuseln des Sturms, der mit einem langen, tiefen Heulen wie von unzähligen Hunden oder Wölfen wieder anzuschwellen schien. Ich war von Furcht erfüllt, wie erstarrt und konnte die Kälte spürbar zunehmen fühlen, bis sie in mein Herz eingedrungen zu sein schien."

When lawyer Jonathan Harker travels to Transylvania to meet his client Count Dracula, he finds himself confronted with strange things: the neighbor gives him a rosary to protect him, and the bloody wound after shaving is examined by the count with a lustful look.

Dracula, Bram Stoker’s 1897 Gothic vampire story, needs no introduction – a perennial on syllabuses and screens alike, generations have been enchanted and enthralled by the Count from Transylvania.

Unpublished until after Stoker’s death, when it was collected in a volume of short stories by his widow Florence, who revealed that Stoker had intended for it to be the opening section of his great work, Dracula’s Guest is the missing chapter that will captivate all fans of Stoker’s ‘dangers from snow and wolves and night’.

Klasický román Brama Stokera dráždí k nejrůznějším adaptacím už přes sto dvacet let. Vábení neodolal ani vynikající francouzský kreslíř Georges Bess, kterého český čtenář zná z komiksu Bílý láma, k němuž psal scénář Alejandro Jodorowsky. S tímto scenáristou Bess spolupracoval i na jiných dílech a k dalším si psal scénář sám. Dracula je přesně tím důvodem, proč se zdálo, že se na několik let odmlčel – a stačí se podívat na úžasně secesně členitou, ornamentální kresbu jeho adaptace, aby člověk pochopil, proč se tak stalo. Bessův Dracula, věrný v tématu a atmosféře doby, umně zeštíhlený k lepší plynulosti děje a k lepšímu využití vizuálních možností příběhu, ale hlavně opatřený kresbou, která bere dech, patří rozhodně k těm nejlepším výtvarným a komiksovým zachycením slavného upírského příběhu, jaká se vám kdy dostanou do ruky. Limitovaná edice.
