Dracula’s Guest

Dracula originally opened with the adventures of Jonathan Harker as he travels to Dracula’s castle and encounters a beautiful female vampire and a werewolf. This chapter was “excised owing to the length of the book” before publication, but Stoker reworked it into a short story titled “Dracula’s Guest,” starring an unnamed Englishman (Stoker removed the name Harker). Dracula is only mentioned in the second to last paragraph of the story. It was published posthumously in 1914 by Stoker’s wife
