Perfection

I hate quoting Chucky here but a true classic never goes out of style. Just finished this book today on Halloween and it couldn't have been more fitting. All the actors did a phenomenal job with the original material. I read that someone complained about Van Helsing's accent but I thought he came off just as I thought in my head years ago. Do yourself a favor and listen to this rendition. I was provided this audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review via Audiobook Boom.

One of the best versions...

... of this great classic that I have ever come across.

The story itself is quite well known I think and has also been told in different forms (books, audiobooks, films etc.) many times.

I particularly like this version of Dracula though - it is not really a dramatised version, but the story is told by different narrators and the voices are great (Dracula's voice is especially spooky).

Well done and very entertaining - many many hours of great fun.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

Brilliant Full Cast Production

This is the all time classic tale performed by a full cast. Every one of the voiced characters is done brilliantly and for me it is the best production of this type I have heard, having that said, Dracula is an all time favourite book of mine! There isn't a lot I can add regarding Stoker's timeless story itself that everyone isn't already familiar with. It is worth listening to this production even if you've read the book 20 times though as the cast really bring the story to life.

Full cast Dracula

I thought the performances were quite good. I’ve listened to the other full cast Dracula and I thought that was better. However this was still good and I enjoy the story quite a bit so it was still a fresh listen for my ears

Excellent Rendition of a Classic

The story of Dracula is a classic and had been published on audible many times. While I have read this story before this was the first time I listened to it and did so only because it had a full cast. Having multiple narrators really made a difference. I have heard a few full cast stories and they do not disappoint. It really adds to the imagery you create in your head while listening. This cast did a great job. Each person’s voice was perfect for their character and hands down my favorite was Van Helsing. If you haven’t read or listened to Dracula before or if it has been a while this version is definitely worth it.

Excellent cast and production.

We got through it.

In our current fast paced lives it was almost difficult to stay focused. The performers made it possible to make it thru the whole Book. I doubt I could have read it on my own. Thanks Audible.

yep. its a winner!

I have always wanted to listen to book. I mean come on, this is where it all starts! all the puns ( I vant to suck your blood) all the Vamp movies, all right here!
This book did not disappoint!, I am so glad I had a chance to hear this book! I do remanded it

.One of the biggest obstacles reading a book via Audible is liking the reader's voice. The narrators did an excellent job bringing this story to life! way to go everyone!!

A Worthy Addition

What can I say about the story? It's Dracula. You know the impact it's had over the years. It still holds up as an effective thriller, even when one knows the twists ahead of time. Indeed, it's nearly impossible to not know the broad strokes of the story already, just through cultural osmosis. If anything, the story is all the better for it. It's not perfect by any means, but it's quite good, and remains one of my favorite books.

Elizabeth Klett demonstrates an incredibly deep understanding of the material in every detail of this project. The cover art is evocative to a casual viewer, but gains new meaning to anyone who is familiar with the work, like all great cover art. The ensemble cast were clearly given great direction, from the chemistry they exhibited with each other. They genuinely sounded like they were interacting with each other, even if some deliveries were occasionally slightly off. Her editing managed to maintain a good flow and rhythm without sacrificing pacing. Her performance as Mina Harker provided an emotional backbone for the entire project, and absolutely stole every scene she was in. The other performances ranged from good to great. The weakest performance was likely Glenn Hascall, as Van Helsing. He voice-acted quite well, and is obviously talented, but his rendition of Van Helsing's Dutch accent would often cause words to run together. Still, I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook, and look forward to whatever work all of these people go on to next.

A Classic Well Presented

Well Done! There is good reason for this book to have lasted so long and be so popular. it is well written and quite riveting. The addition of an audio performance takes it to another level and adds so much. You genuinely care for a character when you hear the emotions in their voice. An excellent book and performance!
