Dracula - the Essex Connection!

Meer over het boek

The narrative delves into the iconic character of Count Dracula, a vampire who emerges at night to prey on unsuspecting victims. While his infamous traits and weaknesses, such as aversion to garlic and the need for a stake through the heart, are widely recognized, the novel's setting in the Thameside village of Purfleet, Essex, adds a unique geographical context to the story. This lesser-known aspect enriches the gothic horror tale, grounding it in a specific location that contrasts with its supernatural elements.
