    Dracula vs. The Fall of the House of Usher In my life I have read many books. I have never really taken the time to notice any particular styles or genres except for fiction and nonfiction. That was until I read my first gothic short story. The power the writers use to describe every detail and how dark they wrote is very fascinating to me. When I read Edgar Allen Poe’s “The Fall of the House of Usher” and Bram Stokers’ “Dracula” I fell in love. These books are both famous and are for a good reason

This book became so significant because he kind of just did what he wanted with the book. ”During this time behavior and mortality had to be restrained like the queen.” You weren’t allowed to write about

    The conflict of science versus superstition is drawn out throughout the whole novel. We know that some of our main characters‚ Jon‚ Van Helsing and Dracula all depict one of the two‚ or both.

    In Bram Stoker’s novel‚ Dracula is depicted as the definition of evil. Throughout the novel‚ there is no doubt about his nefarious intentions and murderous pastimes as he proclaims‚ “My revenge has just begun! I spread it over centuries and time is on my side “ (Brams 339‚ ch 22). Thus it is apparent in the novel that Dracula is evil.
