Dracula
Dracula is a 1897 Gothic novel by Bram Stoker. It introduced the character of Count Dracula. The novel became the origin of the entire modern fictional vampire genre.
There have been various claims of deeper symbolism, often involving the threat of Dracula to Victorian era society and morals, such as claims involving homosexuality and anti-Semitism.
Such claim may also involve later adaptions of the novel, notably the unauthorized 1922 film adaption Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror, frequently accused of anti-Semitism.
