The Dracula in London Reading Order

An anthology of short stories set during the events of Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Assembled by P. N. Elrod, the stories in Dracula in London were each written independently and do not all align into a pleasing whole – and some of them are less than clear about the novel’s timeline, also. Still, each of them is an enjoyable story in its own right.

Dracula
chapters 1-6
Renfield, or Dining at the Bughouse
short story by Bill Zaget, must take place before chapter 7.
Dracula
chapters 7-8
An Essay on Containment
short story by K. B. Bogen, paralleling the events of chapters 7 and 8.
Dracula
chapter 9

chapter 10
Beast

Long Term Investment
