In Dracula, Jonathan Harker's carriage ride to Castle Dracula is a terrifying experience that involves a number of frightening events:
Harker is surrounded by a ring of howling wolves with red tongues and shaggy hair. He yells at the driver to hurry, but then sees the driver standing in the road.
The driver brushes the wolves away with his arms, and a cloud passes over the moon. Harker feels like the carriage is going in circles. Harker's journey to the castle takes him through the Borgo Pass, a difficult terrain between Bistritz and Castle Dracula.
