This design features an early German illustration of Count Orlok, the ghostly figure from Nosferatu (1922) — the silent film that gave horror its first true icon. Directed by F.W. Murnau, Nosferatu transformed Bram Stoker’s Dracula into something colder, stranger, and more poetic: a fever dream of shadows, superstition, and desire.
Over a century later, Orlok remains the purest symbol of cinematic horror: tragic, otherworldly, and unforgettable.
