Excluded by the author from the final text of the famous “Dracula” (1897) and becoming a separate work, a travelogue about the deadly adventures of a young Englishman heading to the count’s castle in a snowy forest not far from Munich on Walpurgis Night; a story about the creepy ghost of a hanging judge who lives in an abandoned house, where a arrogant Cambridge student managed to move in; a chilling tale of the Nuremberg Iron Maiden and a demonic cat with the soul of a vengeful Indian woman; a story of love rivalry, the betrayal and murder of a friend, and the retribution of Fate, covered in the poetic flavor of the Cornish coast - these and other plots are played out on the pages of a book of short prose by the Anglo-Irish writer Bram Stoker, first published after his death in 1914. Most of the stories are published in new translations prepared specifically for this publication.
