Dr. Seward's Dracula
(eBook)

"People need monsters. They need to believe that there are limits to humanity and lines that cannot be crossed." Dr. John Seward, once a resolute guardian against the horrors of the night, has retreated into isolation, haunted by the devastating loss of his beloved and his closest friends to the sinister Count Dracula. As he grapples with his grief and guilt, a lifeline is thrown his way-an enigmatic letter from Irish author Bram Stoker, eager to immortalize Seward's harrowing tale. But before Seward can face his past, a chilling new terror descends. A string of grisly murders echoes the very nightmare he thought vanquished. Forced back into the fray, the doctor must confront both tangible evils and the phantoms of his tortured mind. In this gripping adaptation, award-winning playwright Joseph Zettelmaier weaves a tale of suspense, inner darkness, and relentless pursuit of truth. As Seward navigates a world where the boundaries between reality and nightmare blur, he must rediscover the strength to stand against the creeping shadows-both within and without. Will Dr. Seward uncover the sinister force behind the new wave of deaths, or will he succumb to the demons that have haunted him since that fateful encounter with Dracula? The answers lie within the blood-soaked pages of Dr. Seward's Dracula.
