  This story is the first part of Bram Stoker's Dracula, taken from the 1897 volume. This the story about the journey of Jonathan Harker to found Count Dracula. Count Dracula had directed him to go to The Golden Krone Hotel. There, he got a massage from Count Dracula who wants him leaved that plance and went to Bonga Pass. Someone will invite him there. The old lady who had met him when he arrived begged him not to go and gave him a crucifix. The next day, he leaves that hotel with the coach. When it grew dark, teh passanger begen rather exited. But suddenly, they all screamed. A carriege with 4 horses have stop beside the coach. The driver has a long brown beard, a big black hat and a red bright eyes. The Jonathan Harker got up to the carriege. The driver drove into the darkness and put a cloth on his shoulder. However, he was afraid to do this but there was nothing he could do about it anyway. THE END...

   For me, i found this horror story quite interesting and full of suspenses. There are also contains many question mark in my mind after reading this story. The first one is why he want to met Count Dracula and what their relationship. The old lady who gave him a crucifix also in question. I think the language is simple and easy to understand. Actually, this story has a continuing part as i cannot wait to read it.

Makes a change from the Jungle Book and Canterville Ghost! Are you all in the same class in Malaysia? How come you are all posting your essays here all of a sudden? Has your tutor told you to? I'm just curious - can you explain the situation please?

Anyway, your essay:

1) Check verb tenses - to find Count Dracula

2) Check your spellings. The thought of getting a massage from Count Dracula is very funny!

3) I, the pronoun, should always have a capital letter even in the middle of a sentence.
