Dracula’s arrival at Whitby School

Shin’ichi Sakamoto recasts Bram Stoker’s Dracula in a manga setting that brings the horror to a school in the British Empire. Mina Murray, Whitby School’s first and only female student, faces a crisis when Count Dracula’s arrival puts her friend Lucy Westenra in danger. The description frames Mina’s response as a collective struggle: she joins fellow students whose alliance crosses differences of gender, nationality, and social station. The volume combines a familiar Gothic source with a school-centered conflict and questions of belonging and solidarity.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Manga readers interested in a retelling of Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
  • Readers drawn to Gothic horror set around a school community.
  • Those interested in stories of unlikely alliances across social divisions.

Book overview

Dracula meets manga in this surreally beautiful and chilling retelling of Bram Stoker's quintessential horror classic.

In this beautiful, evocative, and often surreal retelling of Dracula, a fearsome enemy comes from the east, bringing with it horrors the likes of which have never been seen in the British Empire. Standing opposed are Wilhelmina "Mina" Murray and her stalwart companions, united in a cabal that eclipses gender, nationality, and station until the day that they can achieve victory.

As Mina struggles to find her place as Whitby School's first and only female student, a devilish horror is unleashed upon the academy and its unsuspecting students: Count Dracula. However, when this unspeakable evil lays claim to her beloved Lucy Westenra, Mina stands ready to join forces with her fellow students and fight against it with everything she has.
