Dracula's Guest - by Brahm Stoker. "Dracula's Guest" by Bram Stoker. Note: "Dracula's Guest" was excised from the original "Dracula" mss by his publisher because of the length of the original book mss. It was published as a short story in 1914, two years after Stoker's death. In spite of the warnings of his guide, Johann, "Dracula's Guest" continues his journey on Walpurgis Night, an evening of terror when the Devil himself is feared to be out and searching for victims. He soon finds himself, lost, amidst a snow storm in a graveyard..."This was the place where I was alone unmanned, shivering with cold in a shroud of snow with a wild storm gathering again upon me! It took all my philosophy, all the religion I had been taught, all my courage, not to collapse in a paroxysm of fright."
