'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.
