"Then a dog began to howl somewhere in……" — Bram Stoker
"Then a dog began to howl somewhere in a farming house far down the road - a long, agonized wailing, as if from fear... Then, far off in the distance, from the mountains on each side of us began a louder and a sharper howling - that of wolves - which affected both horses and myself in the same way - for I was minded to jump from the caleche and run, whilst they reared again and plunged madly, so that the driver had to use all his great strength to keep them from bolting."
