You can read Dracula for free at dailylit.com: Dracula
The neat thing is that it’s available in 187 installments so you don’t need to read it all in one go.

Shameless plug: if you want to have your own copy of ‘Dracula’ and ‘Dracula’s Guest’ (yes, there’s more!), why not make a small donation to the Dracula-in-Whitby website to keep it running, and you’ll be able to download the books for free (end of shameless plug!)
According to Variety, there are plans afoot for a new Dracula movie based not on Bram Stoker’s hero, but on the historical figure of Vlad the Impaler. The film is to be called, ‘Dracula, Year Zero.’ Can’t wait!
Of even more interest, Elizabeth Kostova’s novel, ‘The Historian’, is also set to make its appearance on the big screen. I think the ‘Blair Witch’ guy could be involved!
If you haven’t read the novel, I suggest you do so as it’s an excellent read. It’s a kind of ‘thinking persons’ Dracula story, based on certain actual historical events, but with a gothic twist.
Things are looking up!
