THE HOLMES-DRACULA FILE

Crime Makes Strange Partnerships – And none stranger than that between Sherlock Holmes and Count Dracula.

Holmes confronts a pair of impossible problems: a ring of criminal masterminds threatening to loose thousands of plague infested rats into the streets of London and a bizarre killer who leaves a trail of bloodless corpses... and no other clues...

Dracula holds the key to both mysteries. Returned to London on a personal matter, the Count is quickly entangled in a web of evil that even his undead powers may not be enough to breach.

Here are the secrets of THE HOLMES-DRACULA FILE.

* * *

In a matter of only a few seconds, the man who faced us had himself in hand. I had been on the point of stepping forward to do what I could for his wounded arm, from which the blood had at first freely flowed. But his whole pose was unmistakably one of menace rather than defeat, and the blood-flow ceased almost as abruptly as it had begun, so that I judged it wiser, for the moment at least to hold my place.

But when the terrible figure spoke of Holmes, it was almost as calmly as before.

"May I congratulate you on thinking of wooden bullets? I had begun to believe all Englishmen were fools."
