Images of Blood in Bram Stoker's Dracula

Vampires have been to space, smoked cigarettes, been to cafs and Ancient Rome, sparkled in the sunlight, and even gone vegetarian. Regardless of your kind of vampire, one thing is certain: there is something from Dracula in it. This book offers a close look into the building process of Bram Stoker's novel, focusing on certain aspects of the Victorian fin-de-sicle and the historical figures that inspired the creation of the Count. The analysis presented here, supported by the studies of Carl Gustav Jung and Gilbert Durand, goes deep into the importance of blood, seeing it as more than just food for the children of the night.
