In his classic ‘Dracula’, Bram Stoker, with a few cryptic entries in an unnamed captain’s journal, offered hints of the voyage that brought the vampire king from his homeland to a blood-rich London. Now, the whole mind-rending tale is told.

July, 1897. The Demeter sets sail from Varna, carrying fifty oblong boxes filled with earth. A month later in the middle of a raging storm, the derelict schooner runs aground in Whitby. The only living thing aboard is a huge dog that vanishes into the night.

Join Doug Lamoreux, 2010 Rondo Award nominee and author of The Devil’s Bed, for a rousing sea adventure, for romance, and for terror. Come aboard Dracula’s Demeter.
