The Dead Writers Club was born out of the fact that there are very few living writers out there that are worth reading. (Naturally, this is because we all yearn to live in the past)

Do you consistently feel as though you are living in the wrong time period? We do too.

This blog is a celebration of literature and the greats who wrote before us.

Once again, in honor of Halloween approaching… we give you, courtesy of poetryanimations,  Irish author Bram Stoker reading from his great novel “Dracula” first published in 1897.

It was first published as a hardcover in 1897 by Archibald Constable and Co.

The excellent virtual recitation is provided by the very talented American voice artist LordJazor who has a very interesting youtube channel where you can hear a longer segment of his reading of Dracula.
