Dracula's Guest

Dracula's Guest

Written by Bram Stoker
Adapted by Mark Dickinson
Narrated by William Westwater

"Dracula's Guest" is believed to be the first chapter of Stoker's classic story "Dracula" but was cut either because it made the book to long or it didn't fit the style of the rest of the book. It was finally published after his death by his wife in 1914.
