A young adventurer succumbs to the night world of a diabolic count. A man of medicine explores his darker side only to fall prey to it. They are legendary tales that have held readers spellbound for more than a century. The titles alone--\u003ci\u003eFrankenstein\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eDracula\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eDr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde\u003c\/i\u003e--have become part of a universal language that serves to put a monster's face on the good-and-evil duality of our very human nature. And the authors--Mary Shelley, Bram Stoker, and Robert Louis Stevenson--equally as mythic, are still possessed of an inventive and subversive power that can shake a reader to this day with something far more profound than fear. They gave root to the modern horror novel, and like the creatures they invented, they've achieved immortality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Signet Book\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/1978\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780451523631\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 736\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.70h x 4.20w x 1.20d","brand":"Mary Shelley, Bram Stoker, Robert Louis Stevenson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36637458399388,"sku":"9780451523631","price":8.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_7382b363-6340-4ca9-a774-2f288ecee0bf.jpg?v=1603844822","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/frankenstein-dracula-dr-jekyll-and-mr-hyde-9780451523631","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
