Laura leads a secluded life in a castle buried deep in the Austrian forest, far away from the dangers of the outside world. That is until a horse and carriage crashes nearby one night, and she and her father take in a weary, young traveller Carmilla. As mysterious as she is beguiling, Carmilla weaves her way into Lauras heart. Life proves less lonely with a friend. But sinister things start happening as the girls become closer, and the forest isnt the safe haven it once was.Sheridan Le Fanus nineteenth-century gothic tale was the first vampire novella. It paved the way for a literary tradition of female and lesbian vampires, and, before Dracula, explored the boundaries of sex and death. Still as chillingly alluring today as it was when it was written in -, Carmilla now joins Penguins Little Clothbound Classics series.
