We never did much rate Bram Stoker’s book Dracula, so we are keen to see if Bram Stocker’s is any better.

Oh yes, in a glorious typo moment, according to a TV advert Romanian daily Adevarul is giving away a copy of Bram Stocker’s Dracula tomorrow.

And from what we can tell, it looks like it is not just the ad that has a typo: all of the actual Draculabooks being sold with Adevarul have been printed the same mistake on the cover.

Oh dear.

Doesn’t anyone proof read anything anymore?

It’s happening all over the world: sub editors, fact checkers are the first out the door. Romania just following the trend here. I guess we can expect plenty more wonderful cock-ups in the near future.
