Notes: Note on splash reads in part, "This is not a crime story! ... because the man - or thing - it tells about, did not come within the realm of the law of man! This creature was one to make a whole country shudder and hide in fear when one realization struck everyone - the legend of Dracula had come true!" Despite this build-up, in the end, the supernatural elements are a criminal's hoax. The story begins on the first page, the story in summer 1860, but ends in the last panel on 3 Oct 1800.
