(IDB Productions Jan. 1, 2016)
After writing his iconic world-renowned novel, Dracula, Bram Stoker didn’t disappear off the scene, but went on to create other remarkable horror stories, some of which are still very popular today. The Lair of the White Worm is one such tale, written by Stoker and published a year before his death, in 1911.The Lair of the White Worm is not your usual horror novel. Loosely based on the legend of the Lambton Worm – originating in Durham, North-East England, it tells the story of Adam Salton who is called to Mercia by his great-uncle Richard in order to discuss becoming his main heir. Everything seems quite strange at first, as he comes across mesmerism, unusual animal attacks and a strange woman with evil intent, who may be hiding a secret far worse than anyone can imagine.Filled with strange, obscure happenings, inexplicable killings and people behaving more and more unusual, The Lair of the White Worm will bring you face to face with an ancient evil, and few of those who have faced it managed to survived. Will our heroes be able to overcome the danger before it’s too late?Boasting forty chapters initially, the story is still quite long, even though it was later abridged as a second version was published in 1925. You’ll find, however, that Stoker’s eventful and exciting tale, as well as his masterful writing style will keep you on the edge of your seat throughout the read, creating a unique, thrilling atmosphere of mystery and intrigue that not many other storytellers can easily imitate.Although the reception for The Lair of the White Worm was less than enthusiastic at the time of its publishing, Bram Stoker’s book remains a true classic of horror literature that is even more appealing to readers who enjoy a good mystery thriller today, than it was 100 years ago when it was written.
