ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Названный в честь зловеще параноидального триллера «Рассвет близок», одной из классических работ легендарного художника-комиксиста Уоллеса Вуда, этот сборник даёт возможность насладиться ими в полной мере. Читатель оценит сверхъестественное мастерство Вуда, с которым он создавал короткие истории с неожиданными концовками. Автор большинства из них — редактор EC Comics Эл Фелдстайн, но в книге есть и несколько работ известного писателя-фантаста Гарри Гаррисона. Сюжеты в издании самые разные: от мистических страшилок со страниц журнала Tales From the Crypt («Байки из склепа») и The Haunt of Fear («Вертеп страха») до криминальных триллеров, пугающе актуальных и сегодня — а это ли не признак настоящего таланта их создателей?

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
When Jonathan Harker visits Transylvania to help Count Dracula with the purchase of a London house, he makes horrifying discoveries about his client and his castle. Soon afterwards, a number of disturbing incidents unfold in England: an unmanned ship is wrecked at Whitby; strange puncture marks appear on a young woman's neck; and the inmate of a lunatic asylum raves about the imminent arrival of his 'Master'.
In the ensuing battle of wits between the sinister Count Dracula and a determined group of adversaries, Bram Stoker created a masterpiece of the horror genre, probing deeply into questions of human identity and sanity, and illuminating dark corners of Victorian sexuality and desire.
