I love dracula! With male and female readers playing various parts, it should be terific.

I can't wait for the librivox version of this book.

listened to an audiobook version of this a few months ago and enjoyed it a lot.

Anyone interested in recording Dracula's Guest? It was taken out of Stoker's original novel by his publisher because it made the novel to long.

It was published a couple of years after his death as a short story. It is indeed in public domain.

http://www.literature.org/authors/stoker-bram/draculas-guest/

It fits in around John Harker's jouney to Dracula's Castle

I think that it would be cool to incorperate this in its original spot in the book, if that can be done. It may have been modified to make it a complete story on its own, but then again, maybe it does fit in perfectly at some point.

listened to this story once, not sure exactly where it fits in.

Librivox may be able to present the complete novel by incorperating this seemlessly into the published version.

How about you, Yakumo? Why don't you record this, and we'll include it.

Sorry the end of the catalog process is taking so long. I uploaded the files to archive.org last night but they still haven't derived so I just went in to derive them manually. So maybe tomorrow they'll be done...
Not a problem. I'm surprised we're all still walking around considering how dangerous a protagonist we're dealing with. Hm, maybe he's not the protagonist, but you know what I mean.

That was my fault, R., not Kara's. Sorry about that.
