Summary |
"Drakula: angol regény" by Bram Stoker is a gothic horror novel written in the late 19th century. The book introduces readers to Jonathan Harker, a solicitor's assistant who travels to Transylvania to assist Count Dracula with a land purchase in England. As the story unfolds, Harker finds himself in a perilous situation, surrounded by mystery, ancient customs, and a growing sense of dread. The opening portion of the novel sets the stage for Harker's journey, detailing his travels from London through Budapest and into the heart of Transylvania. He expresses intrigue and unease as he describes the picturesque landscapes and strange customs he observes along the way. Upon arriving at Dracula’s castle, he encounters a series of eerie events, from the mysterious behavior of locals to his initial meeting with the Count, who possesses an unsettling charm. The tension builds as Harker begins to realize he is entangled in a sinister web, leading to an atmosphere laden with supernatural threats and the unknown. This gripping introduction captivates readers and hints at the unfolding drama of horror and suspense that awaits them. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
