inktober 2019 week two

It’s Week Two of Inktober 2019 and here’s Bram Stoker, the British author who brought the world the classic vampire tale Dracula in 1897. Stoker was the manager of the 2100-seat Lyceum Theatre in London’s West End, a position he held for 27 years. Inspired by a trip to the Northern English town of Whitby, Stoker penned his Gothic yarn about an ancient vampire making plans to move to London seeking fresh blood and bent on spreading his curse of the undead. His story, in turn, inspired countless films, plays, television shows and books.
