About us
Hello, Welcome to Brevard Book Club!! Everyone is welcome to join us. This is a light-hearted group for people who enjoy a good book and like to meet new people.

Dracula by Bram Stoker
Melbourne Library, 540 East Fee Avenue, Melbourne, FL, USLet's show our Book Club Spirit and dress up as Dracula and wear all black. You can attend at 5:30 to help set up and socialize.
Dracula is an 1897 Gothic horror novel by Irish author Bram Stoker. Written as an epistolary story through diary entries, letters, and ship logs, it follows English solicitor Jonathan Harker trapped by a vampire noble in Transylvania, and a group led by Professor Abraham Van Helsing who hunt the Count after he moves to England. You can read the complete text for free on Project Gutenberg.
Since its publication in 1897, Dracula has enthralled generations of readers with the alluring malevolence of its undead Count, the most famous vampire in literature.
Though Bram Stoker did not invent vampires, his novel helped catapult them to iconic stature, spawning a genre of stories and movies that flourishes to this day. A century of imitations has done nothing to diminish the fascination of Stoker’s tale of a suave and chilling monster as he stalks his prey from a crumbling castle in Transylvania’s Carpathian mountains to an insane asylum in England to the bedrooms of his swooning female victims. A classic of Gothic horror, Dracula remains an irresistible entertainment of undying appeal.
