About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Carmilla (Version 3) by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu. Read in English by Louise J. Belle Carmilla is an 1872 Gothic novella by Irish author Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, originally published as a serial in the London-based literary magazine The Dark Blue. It is one of the early works of vampire fiction, predating Bram Stoker's Dracula (1897) by 26 years. The story is narrated by a young woman who falls under the spell of the mysterious Carmilla. The story is often anthologized and has been adapted many times in film, theatre, radio, and television. (description adapted from Wikipedia by Louise J. Belle)
