Abridged edition
This contains the 1925 Abridged edition (28 chapters rather than 40). Here that is inferred from the opening paragraph (viewed as "Look inside" at Amazon UK 2019-06-01) which matches that of the 1998 Project Gutenberg rather than the 1911 William Rider & Son.
British Library (BL, below, also OCLC) notes (quote): "Text is based on the original publication by W. Foulsham & Co. Ltd, 1911."--Title page verso. The text may be directly from the 1998 Project Gutenberg (see at ISFDB). That ebook opens, "Transcribed form the 1911 W. Foulsham & Co. Ltd. ...", but contains the 1925 Foulsham text. - BL reports publication series "Fantastic Tales". As of 2019-06-01, Amazon UK reports no publication series explicitly. Its entire bold heading is now: "The Lair of the White Worm: A Mystery Story (Essential Gothic, SF & Dark Fantasy)".
- Amazon UK provides "Look inside" that includes cover image matching that displayed here: -- no title page -- copyright page: credits Stoker biography and Glossary in a paragraph about the author (John) -- back cover states "Horror/Supernatural"; prices £6.99 UK, $9.99 US, $9.99 CA
