 “Carmilla”: Bram Stoker’s Inspiration for Dracula
By a similarity in the setting, characters and plot, in Bram Stoker’s Gothic work Dracula and the posthumously published short story “Dracula’s Guest,” Stoker is shown to have used Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu’s classic, Gothic, short story, “Carmilla”, as the basis and inspiration for Bram Stoker’s vampiric masterpiece, Dracula.
Baron Vordenberg’s title allows the same to be said of “Carmilla.” Roth observes that “the subsequent trial and staking of the vampire in her tomb is afforded though the offices of one Baron Vordenberg” (98).
Bram Stoker wrote a masterpiece; it is called Dracula.
