"...suddenly the moonlight broke through the clouds, showing me that I was in a graveyard, and that the square object before me was a great massive tomb of marble, as white as the snow that lay on and all around it. With the moonlight there came a fierce sigh of the storm, which appeared to resume its course with a long, low howl, as of many dogs or wolves. I was awed and shocked, and felt the cold perceptibly grow upon me till it seemed to grip me by the heart. Then while the flood of moonlight still fell on the marble tomb, the storm gave further evidence of renewing, as though it was returning on its track. Impelled by some sort of fascination, I approached the sepulcre to see what it was, and why such a thing stood alone in such a place. I walked around it and read, over the Doric door, in German -
Countess Dolingen of Gratz
In Styria
Sought and Found Death
1801
Over the top of the tomb, seemingly driven through the solid marble - the structure was composed of a few vast blocks of stone - was a great iron spike or stake. On going to the back I saw, graven in great Russian letters:
"The dead travel fast."
- from "Dracula's Guest" by Bram Stoker.
