:- 5.0 out of 5 stars from RayGun -- Scary and Wonderful : You know that scene in a horror movie when it gets dark and ominous music begins to play and you know that at any moment the killer is going to suddenly appear and murder everyone in a horrible fashion. That intense build up, and the anxiety of wondering exactly when you’re going to be scared, because you already know it’s coming. That’s this entire book. I had to take breaks at times to read some short stories that were a bit lighter, because the unnerving fear for the characters, as we the reader know what’s happening, could be a bit much at times. However, it’s easy to see why this is a classic, and how it has inspired others to delve into the dark world of vampires. Though, considering I’ve mainly read paranormal romance, it’s a bit disconcerting to see how the original was so completely evil. The vampires in this are soulless, not misunderstood, and kill children and anyone that gets in their way without remorse. More so, it’s incredible all the powers they are given, not just immortality and strength, but real mystical sort of powers, that I wish hadn’t been pushed off to the side in the other stories I’ve read. Beyond all of that though, I don’t believe I have ever come across a story written in this style, and it was this style that really made the tale such an intriguing one. Sure there have been plenty who have done rotating first person, but this is told in pieces of people’s diaries, the letters they’ve written to others, and even newspaper clippings. You’re getting the events after the characters have experience them and have pondered over them, as they try to understand what exactly is going on. Because of this you get to see how it all slowly melds together, and what each character really is thinking, and a much more personal aspect of the story that allows you to really feel for each of them as if these were actual historical letters that someone has stitched together. And I do so hope people were ever like this, this goodness and bravery and the way in which they talk so passionately about everything. It’s really a wonderful book. Though I would advise getting a version that has footnotes to explain certain things. Such as words that are no longer used in this way. As well as some of things that are referenced. I’m sure you could easily enjoy this book without such, but it was rather nice to have. ( Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2017 )
- 1.0 out of 5 stars from Kenlyn Kelly -- Incorrectly spelled author name and wrong date : Unfortunately the author's name (BRAM STOKER) is spelled wrong on the cover and spine. It is correct on the inside. I'm not trying 2 be picking but I'm a collector or bram stoker's dracula. The publish date is supposed to be October 10, 2019 but it is actually December 26, 2019 (I wanted this book 4 the cover and the publish date which is my birthday). I am not 100% happy.

- 1.0 out of 5 stars from CHESTEROO -- Fraudulent book at best : Entire book was nothing but a smeared photocopy. Unreadable. ( Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2019 )
- 4.0 out of 5 stars from Jason M. Hubbard -- Cool villain, poor narrative : I decided to get this shortly after seeing James Rolfe’s video on which Dracula movie was more faithful to the book. I not only wanted to see if what he said about the book was true, I also just wanted to try a vampire book that goes back to the very beginning of the modern lore. I didn’t want vampires that went to high school, nor did I want heroes who learned everything from movies; I wanted a story about an evil man who happened to be a blood-sucking creature of the night, and the people who rose against him.

- 5.0 out of 5 stars from Vladimir K. -- Now I Know Why People Think This Book Is Great! : I hear people make references to Dracula and Vlad the Impaler and vampires in general, but I never really understood the more sophisticated ones because I had never read the book - well now I can say that I HAVE! My book arrived in excellent condition- better than I expected. The cover of this book by Bram Stoker is even more beautiful than the pictures show - in fact, it is the single most colorful novel on my bookshelf. The title letters are raised off of the front cover and are coated in same metallic-blue ink, which makes it unlike any book I have seen. The plot is very exciting (even though it seems unbearably slow and boring in the beginning) and it is very difficult to predict future scenes, which is a major bonus for me because I dislike books that are too predictable. The words are just the right size and the book is extremely lightweight so you won't have to rest it on anything. It is much smaller in size than other books of the same title and is therefore extremely easy to store. In addition, in my opinion, it is always better to use hard copy printed books because you read much faster, you focus on the material easily, you will not damage your eyes like you will glaring at lcd screens, and best of all, you get to smell and feel the pages between your fingertips. Moreover, this book was the cheapest priced version I could find. Everything combines to make this an excellent product. ( Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2016 )
- 5.0 out of 5 stars from Ukreviewer -- Barnes Flexibound edition is Beautiful! : Review of the BARNES FLEXIBOUND EDITION. I wish more people would state which edition they were reviewing, since Amazon group them altogether! ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 27, 2018 )
- 5.0 out of 5 stars from Windshackman -- Classic gothic horror. : On a recent trip to Whitby, With my elderly parents, I needed a book to read to while away my time in my hotel room (which had a clear view of the Abbey ruins, the church and Whitby harbour). My location dictated my choice of novel - Dracula. Although I am not a fan of horror, I felt it might be fun to read a book where important locations were visible from my room. I am so glad I did!

- 5.0 out of 5 stars from Rob Ash -- Beautiful Edition of the Original Dracula at Exceptional Value! : I'm not sure it's worth my reviewing the story in this book, since everyone is so familiar with it. But if you haven't actually read this original version then it is well worth doing so, if you can cope with the beautiful classic writing style. ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 21, 2020 )
- 3.0 out of 5 stars from Comrade X -- Penguin Classics Edition? Not Original. : I bought this because it is described as a Penguin Classics edition and is as described but the text of the story is not original: it has been amended. It is a pity Maurice Hindle [Editor] and Christopher Frayling [Professor of Cultural History] didn't mention that fact. Maybe they didn't know or maybe they feel that the reader doesn't need to know that the text is different from Mr Stoker's original. ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 24, 2020 )
- 4.0 out of 5 stars from R@nju -- Beautiful and unabridged 💙 : Very happy with the purchase. I was browsing for the unabridged+Beautiful book cover+ Illustrations and finally got this hardcover by Harper design. I have attached some pictures also. Though the font size is lil small its easy to read through each lines unlike some other unabdriged version of the dracula. ( Reviewed in India on January 30, 2019 )
