Dracula's Guest and Other Weird Stories

Sinopse

Ainda não disponível em português — exibindo a versão em inglês.

Dracula's Guest and Other Weird Stories is a collection of short stories by Bram Stoker, first published in 1914 in London, two years after Stoker's death, at the behest of his widow Florence Balcombe. She wrote the preface to the collection in which she described the title story as an excised or deleted chapter from the novel Dracula. The remaining stories were previously published. The color illustration for the book cover was by British illustrator William Bradshaw Brandforth, depicting a scene from the short story. The English guest is shown prostrate on the snow as a large wolf stands over him howling. In the background can be seen a horse and coach approaching. White tombstones can also be seen in the cemetery along with the guest's cane as snow swirls all around. The same collection has been issued under short titles including simply Dracula's Guest. Meanwhile, collections published under longer titles contain different selections of stories. The first U.S. edition was published in 1937 in New York by Hillman-Curl under the title Dracula's Guest.
