Dark Legends Collection: With Accompanying Facts, 31 Illustrations and Free Audio Links

This collection contains three of the most well known, classic horror stories, each of which has chilled readers for over a century since their initial publication near the end of the nineteenth century.
Titles included in the collection are:

•Frankenstein; Or The Modern Prometheus, by Mary Shelley. (1818)
Victor Frankenstein, convinced he has found the secret to life, Victor obsessively fashions a gruesome man from body parts of the dead. One night, in the secrecy of his home, his creation is brought to life, but the climactic event turns sour as Frankenstein gazes on the abomination he has created and is horrified with the results.

•The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, by Washington Irving. (1820)
The story begins when Ichabod Crane moves to Sleepy Hollow to be the schoolmaster of the quiet village, but his insatiable hunger and his taste for the finer things in life begin to better him. A local woman, Katrina Van Tassel, catches his eye and as he attempts to win her heart, he attracts the unwanted attention of a love rival who tries his utmost to foil Crane's attempts to woo Katrina. Crane also learns of a supernatural phenomenon of the ghost of "The Headless Horseman" who haunts the area, furiously searching for his head, a story which fascinates Ichabod.
Will Ichabod Crane win the heart of Katrina, and will The Headless Horseman come back to haunt his time in the village?

•Dracula, by Bram Stoker (1897)
Transylvania, Eastern Europe:
Jonathan Harker, a young English Lawyer, journeys through beautiful countryside to meet with a nobleman at his castle with the aim to finalise the sale of a house in London. As he travels, he is warned by local peasants about his destination and of the feared inhabitant of the castle, “Count Dracula.” Harker is given crucifixes and charms to ward away evil, accompanied with ominous words of ill-boding that he later translates as…“Vampire.”
Frightened, nervous and apprehensive, but no less determined, Jonathan continues on to meet the Count’s carriage as scheduled, however the journey to the castle is far from comfortable; wolves relentlessly hound the carriage as Jonathan Harker waits helplessly in his small, rickety confines, until his journeys end.
Upon his arrival, Harker is confronted with a huge, dilapidated old building and is greeted by the elderly Count Dracula who appears, on the surface, to be a well educated and hospitable gentleman…
But little does Jonathan know of the dark secrets that fill the crumbling castle walls and after only a few days, Harker realises that he is no longer a guest, but a prisoner of the ghastly Count.
As long hours pass by, Harker investigates his surroundings and becomes increasingly uneasy about the Count and his devilish intentions...

"The castle is a veritible prison, and i am prisoner!"

England, soon afterwards:
A number of bizarre events begin to occur in Victorian England; an unmanned Russian ship, loaded with fifty crates of earth from Transylvania, runs aground near the town of Whitby, the crew missing and the Captain dead; a young woman suffers strange puncture wounds on her neck and a crazed inmate of a lunatic asylum warns of the impending arrival of someone or something he calls “Master.”
