Dracula
[Penguin Readers Level 3]
‘Alone with the dead! I dare not go out, for I can hear the low howl of the wolf through the broken window’
When Jonathan Harker visits Transylvania to help Count Dracula with the purchase of a London house, he makes horrifying discoveries about his client and his castle. Soon afterwards, a number of disturbing incidents unfold in England: an unmanned ship is wrecked at Whitby; strange puncture marks appear on a young woman’s neck; and the inmate of a lunatic asylum raves about the imminent arrival of his ‘Master’. In the ensuing battle of wits between the sinister Count Dracula and a determined group of adversaries, Bram Stoker created a masterpiece of the horror genre, probing deeply into questions of human identity and sanity, and illuminating dark corners of Victorian sexuality and desire.

I liked this adaptation, I wasn’t sure if it was a reinterpretation of the book or a summary of the original piece of work but it make me want to buy the book.

-large castle, night, a small silver cross, blood, the smell of death, locked doors,dark, red eyes
-I chose this book because I watched this movie in different country's culture class and I liked it. I like the books about vampires, for example "Twilight" and " Vampire Diaries", so I like this book as well.
-In this story, the man went to the castle which is the place that vampire lived, he knew there was a vampire. If you are him, can you go such a dangerous place?
I can't because I don't want to be a vampire. However, if the vampire is good looking guy, like the casts who appear Twilight, I might go to him.
