This gothic masterpiece is a prequel to a classic that I didn't think could get any better, but it did. The best part of this truly terrifying tale of things that don't die is that the voice and macabre setting is spot on to the original Stoker classic. As a young child Bram Stoker, the author of DRACULA, was deathly ill and was miraculously healed by the family's Nana Ellen. Her strange skill at healing was accepted but she didn't count on the natural curiosity of the unnatural in children so when Nana Ellen goes missing, Bram and his sister attempt to find out where she has gone. Sightings of her follow the children and as adults, their search uncovers some frightening results. This is a one sitting book that you will wish there were another 200 pages. Not to be missed is the author's notes from Bram Stoker's journals which is fascinating in its own right. October is the perfect time to release this new gothic horror classic- don't trust anyone who doesn't leave footprints.
