It was shortened by more than 100 pages, the rewritten book having only 28 chapters instead of the original 40. The final eleven chapters were cut down to only five, leading some critics to complain that the ending was abrupt and inconsistent.The Lair of the White Worm was very loosely adapted by Ken Russell into a 1988 film of the same name.The first episode of the German radio drama ""Die Schwarze Sonne"", produced by the label LAUSCH, is loosely based on the events of The Lair of the White Worm.

Abraham "Bram" Stoker (November 8, 1847 - April 20, 1912) was an Irish writer, best remembered as the author of the influential horror novel Dracula.

Bram Stoker is an author of a large number of books that used to be widely popular among readers. But only his one novel, Dracula, gained true immortality and eternal recognition.

Dracula is an 1897 Gothic horror novel by Irish author Bram Stoker. It introduced the character of Count Dracula, and established many conventions of subsequent vampire fantasy.[1] The novel tells the story of Dracula''s attempt to move from Transylvania to England so that he may find new blood and spread the undead curse, and of the battle between Dracula and a small group of men and a woman led by Professor Abraham Van Helsing.Dracula has been assigned to many literary genres including vampire literature, horror fiction, the gothic novel, and invasion literature. The novel has spawned numerous theatrical, film, and television interpretations.

In 1897, Bram Stoker took central European folk tales and turned them into one of the most famous horror books of all time. But the CW isn''t going to be speccing a script about this guy anytime soon--at least, not Dracula as Stoker wrote him. Stoker''s Dracula isn''t young and sparkly-hot; he''s creepy, old, and has a penchant for turning into bats and clouds of mist.Creepy, old, and occasionally downright boring (just stop with the train schedules, Mina)--yes. But just like some vampire stories we could name coughVampireDiaries cough, Dracula is a lot more interesting to talk about than it is to read. Just like today, vampires in 1897 stood in for a lot of contemporary fears and anxieties. Except while the vampire craze of the 2000s can be read as representing fears of corruption and conspiracy theories, ye olde turn-of-the-century bloodsuckers represented the increasing globalization of London, the risks of sexual activity, or even the increasing presence of technology.That''s right: technology. Just like that creaky rom-com You''ve Got Mail hinges on the wacky new technology of email, Dracula hinges on telegraphs, typewriters, and phonographs--only with much more gruesome results.Here''s the quick version: Count Dracula leaves his native Transylvania (modern-day Romania, in southeastern Europe) to immigrate to England--presumably to feed on the "teeming millions" in the huge capital city of London. "Invasion literature," or literature that had to do with monsters invading the British Empire (which, at that point, still covered a lot of the world beyond the British Isles), was ridiculously popular at the time. Authors like Rudyard Kipling, H.G. Wells, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle all wrote sensational adventure stories about fantastic creatures or threatening monsters from around the world. Stoker didn''t think of himself as a great artist; he was primarily a businessman. He managed the famous Lyceum Theatre in London. Stoker only wrote novels to pay the bills (hah! the idea of writing novels to pay the bills is insane). Honestly, he''d probably be astonished at the lasting impact Dracula has had. He wrote it in a piecemeal, haphazard way--a little here, a little there.At the time it came out in 1897, it was popular and well-received, but hardly a blockbuster hit. It wasn''t until later in the 20th century, when film versions of the novel started to appear, that the novel''s popularity really skyrocketed and its impact on popular culture became crystal-clear. Basically every bloodsucker in literature--from Twilight''s Edward Cullen to True Blood''s Eric Northman to Anne Rice''s Lestat & Co. to Sesame Street''s The Count--owes their life (or undeath) to Bram Stoker and his xenophobic tale of one Romanian count seducing proper English ladeez.In other words, Dracula is the super-hideous great-great-grandpappy of Bella Swan.

In a tale of ancient evil, Bram Stoker creates a world of lurking horrors and bizarre denizens: a demented mesmerist, hellbent on mentally crushing the girl he loves; a gigantic kite raised to rid the land of an unnatural infestation of birds, and which receives strange commands along its string; and all the while, the great white worm slithers below, seeking its next victim... Lair of the White Worm was Bram Stoker''s twelfth and final novel.

Bram Stoker''s initial notes and outlines for his landmark horror novel Dracula were auctioned at Sotheby''s in London in 1913 and eventually made their way to the Rosenbach Museum and Library in Philadelphia, where they are housed today.
