Book Overview
The Art of Dracula: A Visual Journey Through the Transmedial Representations of the Count belongs to the category of art and visual culture.

The Legacy of Dracula explores the aesthetic world behind Stoker’s novel, including theater, the press, occultism, and the landscapes of Whitby.
