Vampire Count Dracula (Johnny Weiqiang Chang) prepares to stangle Lucy Westenra (Tara Birtwhistle) in the ballet.
First published in 1897, the novel "Dracula," by Irish author Bram Stoker, has never been out of print. It has been reissued in over 300 editions, including dozens in foreign languages.
