Dracula

Dracula has been designated to various literary genres including vampire literature, horror fiction and gothic romance.

Structurally it is an epistolary novel, told as a series of letters, diary entries, ships' logs, etc.

Although Stoker did not invent the vampire, the novel's influence on the popularity of vampires has been singularly responsible for many theater, film, television and many interpretations over the XX and XXI centuries.
