Carmilla: A Vampyre Tale by J. Sheridan Le Fanu
4.0
dark mysterious tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

This is a very solid classic. In some aspects, I would even say it's better than Dracula, except that one has a very cool way of telling its story through letters. Carmilla is an amazing villain and it's fun to see how she approaches her victims. You can most definitely see where the inspiration of modern vampires originates.
