Books to Read If You Loved Robert Eggers’ 'Nosferatu'
1. Dracula by Bram Stoker (1897) Approx. reading time: 10–11 hours
Dracula is the foundation of vampire lore and shares Nosferatu’s blend of dread and fascination. Its epistolary form creates a creeping tension, similar to the film’s slow-building dread. The novel explores the gothic appetite through themes of faith, corruption, and forbidden desire, mirroring Ellen’s insatiable hunger and the destructive pull of Nosferatu. 2. Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice (1976)
