Der junge Anwalt Jonathan Harker reist in geschäftlichem Auftrag nach Transsylvanien, zum abgelegenen Schloss des Grafen Dracula. Dort macht er eine erschreckende Entdeckung: Sein Gastgeber ist ein Untoter, der sich von menschlichem Blut ernährt. Als der Graf nach London übersiedelt, erliegt die Londoner Gesellschaft seinem dunklen Charme. Dracula nutzt das Vertrauen aus, indem er Nacht für Nacht neue Opfer heimsucht und sie in blutrünstige Geschöpfe wie ihn selbst verwandelt. Ein dramatischer Wettlauf mit der Zeit auf Leben und Tod beginnt. Zusammen mit seinen Verbündeten muss Harker einen Weg finden, Draculas dunkle Macht zu brechen – bevor sich sein Fluch in den Straßen Londons weiter ausbreitet. Bram Stokers meisterhaft erzählter Schauerroman revolutionierte das Horror-Genre und erschuf die wohl berühmteste Vampirfigur der Literaturgeschichte. In dieser fesselnden Gothic Novel verschmelzen alte Volkssagen mit den Ängsten und Mythen des viktorianischen Zeitalters.

This is not a children's book. This is the Brothers Grimm as they were meant to be heard: raw, unflinching, and stripped of all sanitization. Here, the fairy tales return to their origins—oral folklore steeped in the brutality of peasant life, where punishment is grotesque, justice is arbitrary, and magic is a harbinger of dread, not wonder. Inside the Codex of the Damned: The Lost Transcripts New English translations of tales banned for 200 years: — A "Cinderella" where stepsisters carve their feet to fit the slipper — "The Juniper Tree" with its cannibalistic lullabies — Unpublished drafts where Snow White's "resurrection" is a necromantic ritual Artifacts of Terror 200+ unretouched 19th-century engravings — gallows silhouettes, hag-mouths agape, villages choked by wolf-haunted forests. These aren't illustrations; they're psychological maps of pre-industrial dread. Themes That Flay the Soul: ▫️ Scarred Flesh as Pedagogy Mothers who salt their children's wounds. Kings demanding a hundred severed fingers. ▫️ Magic as a Curse, Not a Gift Wells that grant wishes in exchange for blindness. Spindles that birth comas, not kisses. ▫️ Justice Without Witnesses Thieves boiled in their own greed. A "happy ending" is merely surviving to see dawn. Why This Book Exists: Academic rigor meets gothic horror. Translated directly from Jakob Grimm's personal notes — including his annotations on how oral storytellers "sang" these tales to audiences half-mad with malnourishment. For collectors of forbidden folklore and lovers of Angela Carter's darkest prose.
