The Dracula 1931 Ultimate Guide New Edition Signed Hardback is the collector’s edition of this guide, in a strictly limited edition hardcover format – only 50 in the world – and signed and numbered by the authors with a FREE exclusive Dracula art print.
The Dracula 1931 Ultimate Guide New Edition Signed Hardback evokes the brochure you might have bought at the cinema in 1931, recapturing the chilling sense of discovery at the movie many see as the first true horror film. This luxurious hardcover publication is a fresh edition of our very first Ultimate Guide, bringing it in line with the sleek timeless design of our more recent film guides and celebrating Bela Lugosi’s breakthrough movie in style.
For many film fans, Universal’s Dracula from 1931 is the first bona fide horror motion picture. True, others came before it, but Dracula shaped our understanding of what horror movies could – and would – become. And it’s the same for Classic Monsters – as our very first Ultimate Guide, our tribute to Tod Browning’s 1931 movie hinted at the road ahead. In the years since the publication of the Dracula 1931 Ultimate Guide, times have changed, with the style, structure and design of our guides evolving a cleaner layout, finer-quality stills, and more information. With this in mind, the Dracula 1931 Ultimate Guide New Edition Signed Hardback is a look ahead at our future guides, and a loving celebration of our very first title. This is a signed Dracula 1931 hardcover movie guide you simply won’t want to be without.
REMEMBER – THERE ARE ONLY 50 COPIES OF THIS TITLE IN THE WHOLE WORLD!

But wait! We’re almost at the castle now, and our host is there to greet us. This staircase could do with a clean, but the rooms upstairs are more comfortable. You could take a seat on one of those three, uh, boxes and lose yourself in the Dracula 1931 Ultimate Guide Signed New Edition Signed Hardback. Make sure you don’t lend it to those three pale women from downstairs, though – they seem to be on the prowl for something…
Collectors please note: the art print included with this product is different from the one accompanying the signed softback.
