Jonathan Harker is called away on business to the castle of Count Orlock...

The German Filmmaker F.W. Murnau released his film NOSFERATU: Symphony of Horror in 1922. For the story, he infamously adapted Bram Stoker's Dracula without permission.  He was sued by the Stoker estate and forced to destroy all copies of the film.

But one survived...

100 years later comes the graphic novel adaptation from Narwhal.

Nosferatu is different than Dracula.  It is simpler, and stranger.  The most striking change is turning the vampire into a monster, a bat-like humanoid creature, rather than a man with fangs.

Nosferatu translates to 'Bird of the Night'

As a graphic novel, it reads smooth and fast, with unique and compelling story structure, and unearths a haunting mood and emotion by the time the tale is finished.  Readers may find it more accessible than the silent film, and the story will be introduced to a new generation audience.

This is the third full graphic novel from Narwhal, and completes his debut trilogy along side Earthbound and Foreign Agent. 

While it is a strict adaptation, there is still lots of Narwhal in this work, and his creativity and focus on storytelling is prevalent.
