Description

Director F.W. Murnau’s Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror, made in 1921, right after the devastating Spanish Flu pandemic, has become the ultimate cult classic among horror film buffs around the world.

For years there was much speculation about the production background, the filmmakers, and their star, the German actor Max Schreck.

This book tells the complete story drawing on rare sources.

The trail leads to a group of occultists and their plan for establishing a leading film company that would produce a momentous series of horror movies.

Along the way, the author touches upon other classic German fantasy silents, including The Golem, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and Metropolis.
