I am Dracula, and I bid you welcome . . .
Bram Stoker

Bram Stoker
Image

And as she arched her neck she actually licked her lips like an animal till I could see in the moonlight the moisture Then lapped the white, sharp teeth. Lower and lower went her head. I closed my eyes in a languorous ecstasy and waited.
Bram Stoker
Image
She is one of God's women fashioned by His own hand to show us men and other women that there is a heaven where we can enter, and that its light can be here on earth.
Bram Stoker
Image
And so we remained till the red of the dawn began to fall through the snow gloom. I was desolate and afraid, and full of woe and terror. But when that beautiful sun began to climb the horizon life was to me again.
Bram Stoker
Image
I want you to believe...to believe in things that you cannot.
Bram Stoker
Image
It is only when a man feels himself face to face with such horrors that he can understand their true import.
