Dracula
This wonderful work of Bram Stoker tells the story of Jonathan Harker, a young prosecutor who is sent to Transylvania to trade some lands with Count Dracula. Since the beginning of his stay in the castle, the Count reflects weird manners, as his host begins showing his strange customs and other oddities, the young man begins to suspect.
Meanwhile, the bride of Jonathan, Mina Murray, is waiting at home with her friend Lucy for her husband's return, but some strange things begin to happen to her friend, and she is prey of a strange disease. Arthur, Lucy’s fiancé, contacts his friend, Dr. Seward, to help Lucy, but his attempts are futile, and he asks for help to Dr. Van Helsing, a doctor dedicated to the destruction of vampires. Unfortunately Lucy dies a few days later.
Jonathan managed to escape from his prison in the castle and marries Mina, who tells Van Helsing the bizarre adventures of her husband, and both of them conclude that the Count is a vampire.
Thus they start a hunt of the Count, reaching him in his castle in Transylvania, where they would kill the fearsome character.
