What if the most famous vampire story of all time did not end in the nineteenth century?
In the last months before the year 2000, Jonathan Harker is sent from London to a remote castle in Transylvania to complete what should be a simple property deal. His client is wealthy, secretive and impossibly old-fashioned. He refuses telephone calls, avoids modern records and wants everything signed under his own roof.
His name is Count Dracula.
As Jonathan travels deeper into the Carpathian mountains, the world of faxes, mobile phones, dial-up internet and millennium anxiety begins to give way to something far older. Local warnings are easy to dismiss. Superstition is easy to laugh at. But inside Castle Dracula, Jonathan discovers that the past has not died. It has waited.
And now it is coming to England.
Dracula: 1999 is a modern gothic horror retelling of Bram Stoker's classic vampire story, moving the terror forward one hundred years into the uneasy final days of the twentieth century. The familiar journey begins again: the castle, the doomed ship, the illness of Lucy Westenra, the courage of Mina Murray, and the desperate hunt to stop an ancient evil before it takes root in the modern world.
Blending classic vampire horror with a late-1990s setting, this atmospheric retelling keeps the heart of the original Dracula while giving it a fresh, cinematic edge. It is a story of fear, obsession, science, superstition and the terrible mistake of believing that modern life has made old nightmares harmless.
For readers who enjoy gothic horror, classic monster stories, vampire fiction, dark historical retellings and modern adaptations of literary classics, Dracula: 1999 brings the legend back into the shadow of the millennium.
The past never dies, It evolves.
