Title: Carmilla by J Sheridan Le Fanu
Join us to discuss Carmilla by J Sheridan Le Fanu an Irish writer of Gothic tales and mystery novels.
In an isolated castle deep in the Austrian forest, Laura leads a solitary life with only her ailing father for company. Until one moonlit night, a horse-drawn carriage crashes into view, carrying an unexpected guest – the beautiful Carmilla. So begins a feverish friendship between Laura and her mysterious, entrancing companion. As Carmilla becomes increasingly strange and volatile, prone to eerie nocturnal wanderings, Laura finds herself tormented by nightmares and growing weaker by the day…
Pre-dating Dracula by twenty-six years, Carmilla is the original vampire story, steeped in sexual tension and gothic romance.
For any questions, please contact the organiser Claire Leighton: claire.leighton@strawberryhillhouse.org.uk
