La escabrosa y atrevida relación entre sus protagonistas, Laura y Carmilla, aún hoy resulta sorprendente. La temática de la femme fatale alcanza aquí su máximo exponente, y los ecos de esta magnífica novela gótica la convierten en uno de los principales referentes del terror que se escribe en la actualidad.

The moonlight spills like silver across ancient walls, and somewhere in the velvet darkness, a whisper stirs—a name, half-sighed, half-forgotten. Carmilla.

She is beauty wrapped in mystery, desire woven with dread. This is not a story of fangs bared in the night, nor of crude terrors lurking in the crypt. Carmilla is subtler, more intoxicating—a tale that shivers on the border between love and death, fascination and fear.
