Dacre Stoker

    Dacre Stoker verweeft zich in het weefsel van horror en spanning, geïnspireerd door zijn familiale band met een titaan van de gothic literatuur. Zijn schrijven duikt in de duistere krochten van de menselijke psyche, waarbij hij de blijvende erfenis van klassieke bovennatuurlijke verhalen onderzoekt. Stokers kenmerkende stijl biedt een eigentijdse kijk op het onheilspellende, waarbij lezers worden geboeid met rijke, sfeervolle proza en meeslepende verhalen. Met zijn werk zet hij een traditie van meesterlijk verhalen vertellen voort die zowel ontzag als verwondering oproept.

      The prequel to Dracula , inspired by notes and texts left behind by the author of the classic novel, Dracul is a supernatural thriller that reveals not only Dracula's true origins but Bram Stoker's--and the tale of the enigmatic woman who connects them. It is 1868, and a twenty-one-year-old Bram Stoker waits in a desolate tower to face an indescribable evil. Armed only with crucifixes, holy water, and a rifle, he prays to survive a single night, the longest of his life. Desperate to record what he has witnessed, Bram scribbles down the events that led him here.... A sickly child, Bram spent his early days bedridden in his parents' Dublin home, tended to by his caretaker, a young woman named Ellen Crone. When a string of strange deaths occur in a nearby town, Bram and his sister Matilda detect a pattern of bizarre behavior by Ellen--a mystery that deepens chillingly until Ellen vanishes suddenly from their lives. Years later, Matilda returns from studying in Paris to tell Bram the news that she has seen Ellen--and that the nightmare they've thought long ended is only beginning.
