Bram Stoker’s novel Dracula, is written in a series of letters and diary entries in order to display a distortion of events. Although the diary entries of Jonathan Harker is more personal, allowing the reader to be drawn into the plot, the diary entries also includes bias. The mental state of the Harker is unstable due to his fear of Dracula and death; therefore, his diary may not portray an accurate description of what exactly happened. Words spoken as facts in the diary cannot be fully trusted and deemed credible for Harker does not know the truth of everything himself. Instead, the reader has to form their own opinion of the truth. This suggest that the viewpoint and opinion of people are not a credible source of the world around them. Prejudice
