In this frightening novel, published in 1903, Stoker turns from one staple of horror--the vampire--to another: the mummy, thus influencing every subsequent literary and film treatment of the subject, including the Universal classic, The Mummy. Here, an archeologist's plan to revive the mummified remains of the ancient Egyptian Queen Tara leads to bloodshed.
