๐ŸŒ™๐Ÿฆ‡ England, 1897.

The gas lamps flicker through the London fog. ๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿฎ Horse-drawn carriages clatter over wet cobblestones. ๐ŸŽ๐ŸŒง๏ธ The British Empire is at its heightโ€”an age of invention, progress, and discovery. โš™๏ธ๐Ÿš‚๐ŸŒ

But when darkness falls, another world emerges. ๐ŸŒ‘

In quiet parlours and candlelit rooms, people still whisper tales of ghosts ๐Ÿ‘ป, curses โšฐ๏ธ, and strange creatures lurking beyond the edge of civilisation. ๐Ÿบ๐ŸŒฒ

And somewhere in this world sits an Irish writer with a vivid imagination and a fascination with the unknown. โœ๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ช

His name is Bram Stoker.

Few people know it yet, but he is about to unleash a character who will haunt popular culture for generations. ๐Ÿฉธ๐Ÿฆ‡๐Ÿฐ

A mysterious count.

A distant castle.

A journey into the darkness.

๐Ÿ“– Dracula is coming.

More than a century later, vampires fill our books, films, and television screens. ๐ŸŽฌ๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿง› But before Dracula became immortal, there was simply Bram Stokerโ€”a sickly child in Dublin, listening to stories, dreaming of adventure, and unknowingly creating one of the most famous monsters in history.

๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ This is a short history of Bram Stoker.
