Title: A Good Read for Halloween
Review: This is an interesting book for anyone, no matter if you are interested in horror or not. There are many different interpretations of the meaning of this story, but I like to think of it as the "dark side" of Victorian literature. It is also interesting to point out the many erotic overtones in the book. As for the story itself, it drags a bit, and though it is genuinely creepy in some parts, the ending is so quick that everything is wrapped up in two pages, with a "happily ever after"-type ending that has Van Helsing bouncing Mina and Jonathan's child on his knee. However, though the book does have its faults, it is still a classic novel of English literature and should not necessarily be classified as "horror fiction" when there is a lot more there to be discussed.
Is the review positive or negative?
