Chapter VI

Mina Murray's diary

Lucy met me at the station. She looked sweet and lovely. We drove to her house at the Crescent. It is a wonderful place, with a little river and beautiful green valleys around it. Lucy and I often sit near theharbour, and the locals, old men, join us. I ask them many questions about some legends and superstitions, but the men are sceptical, and they tell me these legends are all lies.

Lucy always talks about her coming marriage – and I feel sad, because I miss Jonathan.

Dr. Seward's Diary

Mr. Renfield's situation is unusual, and it is getting more and more interesting. I think he loves animals, but I also believe he can be cruel. His pets are strange. At first, he hadflies, then spiders, and now he has sparrows. He wants to have a kitten, too. He once ate one of his flies. He said it can give him life and energy. I believe he will also eat his other pets.
