K.Rizwana Sultana, None

By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

The story of Count Dracula remains a fascination for every one irrespective of age and place. Ever since the publication of Dracula as a novel by Bram Stoker in 1897, it led to tremendous translations in to films, adaptation as children’ s comic, plays, short story and what not. It is true to say that a literary work of worth with stands the passage of time. Not only the novel of Bram Stoker but the story of the Count Dracula which is also regarded a legend has conquered the world of vampire stories; where Dracula is termed as the King of the vampire world. Though an associate of Satan, at times Dracula finds a place for a romantic hero too. Dracula has enjoyed enormous popularity since its publication and has spawned an extraordinary vampire subculture in the second half of the 20th century . More than 200 films have been made that feature Count Dracula. At the centre of this subculture is the legend of Transylvania, which has become almost synonymous with vampires. The present paper is an attempt to discuss how Dracula was represented in the novel and some film versions of the same. The films focused at are F .W .Murnu’ s Nosferatu, the Symphony of Horror (1922), Dracula (1931) and Bram Stoker’ s Dracula 1992) and Bram Stoker’ s Dracula (1992).
