Drac' is back! Bram Stoker's great grand-nephew has published a sequel to the hair-raising classic DRACULA, first published in 1897. That's about when I read it the first time also! My sister and I took turns reading aloud from the book, cover to cover, when I was a pre-teen and she was a young teen.
Dacre Stoker's new book is titled Dracula the Undead. (I don't know how you pronouce the name Dacre; maybe we'll find out later.) Apparently this sequel takes up 25 years after the end of the original story, and looks like Count Dracula wasn't as dead as we all thought. Well, he crumbled into green dust! That looked pretty final to me.
That's Dacre with the bats.
So now we have something new to read, just in time for Halloween!

Have you read the book? I'd like to read it, too. - Una
Even though I've grown quite weary with vampire books, I have to read this one. Put me on the list.
