Conventional readings of Bram Stoker’s Dracula tend to focus on the sexuality of the vampire women and the degeneracy of Dracula. There is a large emphasis on the monster rather than on reasons why the anxieties of the British characters are so strongly felt and what those anxieties may truly be masking. This study explores the reactive anxieties felt by middle class white men concerning the New Woman and immigrants in the social and political aspects in Victorian society. It investigates meanings of British society’s multiple anxieties concerning the New Woman and the influx of immigrants at the fin de siécle.
