Dracula (1965 Heritage Press edition) by Bram Stoker, illustrated by Felix Hoffmann, is a striking rendition of the 1897 gothic horror classic that codified vampire lore. This edition pairs Stoker’s epistolary tale—journal entries, letters, and news clippings chronicling Jonathan Harker’s encounter with the Transylvanian count and the ensuing battle led by Van Helsing—with Hoffmann’s haunting woodcut-style illustrations.
Hoffmann’s artwork, rendered in stark black-and-white, amplifies the novel’s eerie atmosphere: Dracula’s shadow looms over crumbling castles; Lucy’s undead transformation chills; the hunters’ pursuit thrums with tension. The Heritage Press’s signature production—heavy paper, crisp typography, and a slipcase—elevates this into a collector’s treasure.
A definitive edition for bibliophiles, marrying Stoker’s suspense with Hoffmann’s expressionist flair.
