Prequels, Sequels, and Sidequels to Bram Stoker’s Dracula
Count Dracula is one of popular culture’s greatest and best-known monsters: an instantly recognizable bogeyman with the undoubtable power to terrify, yet somehow still liked enough to shill breakfast cereal and candy bars on television. Of course, our hunger for Dracula goes far beyond sugary treats. Hardly a year goes by without a new take on Bram Stoker’s immortal novel, many of them expanding the original story in new and inventive ways.

by J.D. Barker and Dacre Stoker
Dracula is one of the most popular horror novels of all time, but what if it’s a true story? In this prequel to the novel, young Bram Stoker’s childhood encounter with a sinister housekeeper sets the stage for an adult confrontation with the living dead — and a future as a horror legend. Co-author Dacre Stoker is Bram’s great grand-nephew, so this is going to be as close as you get to a fully authorized spin-off.
