Dracula is written as diaries, letters, and ship's logs — which makes it uniquely good typing practice. Every few pages the voice changes: Jonathan Harker's precise legal English, Mina's quick shorthand style, Van Helsing's broken, comma-heavy Dutch-accented speech. Your fingers never settle into a predictable rhythm, and that's exactly the point. Stoker's Gothic vocabulary — "Carpathians", "Nosferatu", "Whitby churchyard" — trains the rare letter combinations that random-word tests never touch. The novel is long: typing it end to end is a genuine multi-week project, with progress saved locally in your browser after every passage. If you're preparing for a government typing exam, the epistolary format is the closest free practice you'll find to real exam passages — formal prose, heavy punctuation, and sustained 10–15 minute stretches. Begin with Harker's journal from Chapter 1.
