Early in Dracula (1897), the young solicitor Jonathan Harker explores the castle while he waits for his host, and finds the library. Bram Stoker has him marvel at it: shelves of English books, bound volumes of magazines and newspapers, and a table covered in English periodicals. The Count, it turns out, has been studying England very carefully, because he is planning to move there.
It's a quietly terrifying room. Nothing in it is frightening on its own; it's what the reading is for.
What you're looking at
This library was generated from Stoker's descriptions of the castle, not from any of the many film versions. The novel has long been in the public domain. Drag the slider to see it restyled. Each look is a real restyle, made by the same AI that restyles a user's own room, so the fireplace, the tall windows and the shelves stay where they are while the materials and colors change.
Why this room
Stone walls, a huge fireplace and tall gothic windows are exactly the features old castles and converted churches are sold on today. The styles chosen here go as far from Transylvania as possible: coastal light, Scandinavian pale wood, and cottage florals. It's a good way to see how much of "gloomy" is just finishes.
