In this brilliantly written book, Lawrence Barker combines the modern thriller with gothic horror to reveal why Dracula used Renfield as his assistant and what made Renfield insane. Finally the truth behind the straight jacket, beetles, flies, and moments of horrible lucidity is unveiled. Renfield tells how only one man stands against a threat from the mysterious East, a threat ten times as terrifying as Dracula: R.M. Renfield. After reading "Renfield", you will never look at Stoker's version of "Dracula" in the same light.

Mad About Renfield!,
By
This review is from: Renfield (Paperback)
Horror writer Lawrence Barker adds a new dimension to the complex character of Dracula's stark, raving mad servant Renfield. Any horror afficienado that does not have this book in their collection should be put in a straight-jacket and locked in a padded cell.
