La versión perdida de Drácula, que Bram Stoker reescribió con el primer traductor de la obra y a la vez editor en Islandia. En 1900 el editor y escritor Valdimar Çsmundsson se propuso traducir, por primera vez en la historia, la que se convertiria en la gran obra de la literatura gotica: Dracula, de Bram Stoker. Sin embargo, Çsmundsson no solo tradujo Dracula sino que, con la ayuda del propio autor, escribio una version distinta de la historia, con nuevos personajes y una trama totalmente reconstruida. Mas corta, mas oscura y mas erotica, esta obra escrita a cuatro manos se titulo Makt Myrkranna (Los poderes de la oscuridad). Makt Myrkranna se publico en Islandia en 1901 y conto con un prefacio de Bram Stoker, pero el texto permanecio perdido hasta que, en 2014, fue descubierto por el investigador Hans Corneel de Roos. Por fin ve la luz Los poderes de la oscuridad, la version de Dracula que reimaginaron Stoker y Çsmundsson y se escondia del mundo en Islandia... hasta ahora. Ampliamente anotada por De Ross, la presente edicion proporciona al lector el fascinante contexto historico, cultural y literario de uno de los clasicos indiscutibles de la literatura universal. C

Dracula: Introduction and Notes by Dr David Rogers, Kingston University. 'There he lay looking as if youth had been half-renewed, for the white hair and moustache were changed to dark iron-grey, the cheeks were fuller, and the white skin seemed ruby-red underneath; the mouth was redder than ever, for on the lips were gouts of fresh blood, which trickled from the corners of the mouth and ran over the chin and neck. Even the deep, burning eyes seemed set amongst the swollen flesh, for the lids and pouches underneath were bloated. It seemed as if the whole awful creature were simply gorged with blood; he lay like a filthy leech, exhausted with his repletion.' Thus Bram Stoker, one of the greatest exponents of the supernatural narrative, describes the demonic subject of his chilling masterpiece Dracula, a truly iconic and unsettling tale of vampirism. Dracula's Guest & Other Stories: Edited and Introduced by David Stuart Davies. The above is followed with a rich collection of Stoker's macabre tales including Dracula's Guest (which was omitted from the final version of Dracula); a devilishly dangerous haunted room in The Judge's House; a fatalistic tragedy in The Burial of the Rats; a terror of revenge from beyond the grave in The Secret of Growing Gold, and a surprising twist in the tail in The Gypsy's Prophecy. Other strange and frightening episodes provide a feast of terror for those readers who like to be unnerved as well as entertained.

Acclaimed poet and playwright Liz Lochheads Dracula stays refreshingly close to Bram Stokers classic novel.Asked to adapt it by the Royal Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh, she immersed herself in the book. After a sleepless night, she writes in the Introduction, my hair was standing on end, what with the mad Renfield in his lunatic asylum eating flies and playing John the Baptist to his coming master and with Lucys description of her "dream" of flying with the red-eyed one above the lighthouse at Whitby, and Jonathans "dream" of the three Vampire Brides advances upon him and of their being repelled at the last minute by the furious DraculaThis was before Id even got to the abducted children or "the loving hand" of Lucys fiance staking her through the heart or that shocking rape-like bit where, with Minas newly-wed husband Jonathan asleep in a flushed stupor by her side, Dracula, at her throat, takes his fill of her lifes-bloodStill, what really attracted me to the story was Rule One for becoming a vampire-victim: "First of all you have to invite him in."Liz Lochheads stage adaptation of Dracula was first performed at the Royal Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh, in 1985.Ideal for schools and drama groups, this Dracula is all the more chilling for the respect it shows for Stokers original nightmare creation.

Una chica educada como un varón, se declara a un joven que le gusta, algo imperdonable entre la aristocracia inglesa del XIX en que la mujer no puede tomar la iniciativa. El hecho provoca, por un lado, que el joven la rechace humillantemente y por otro que su verdadero enamorado huya de ella por culpa de un equivoco. El azar hara que tras diversas peripecias (entre ellas, un terrible naufragio en que la protagonista salva a su enamorado, que ha caido a un mar tormentoso, haciendo un fuego en lo alto de un promontorio) se aclare el equivoco y los dos enamorados puedan materializar su amor.
