Happy Birthday, Bram Stoker!

If he had still been alive, today would have been Bram Stoker's 171st birthday.

Arguably, it was the Irish author's gothic novel Dracula that made the vampire the horror icon it is today, and blood-suckers have certainly cropped up in works of mine from time to time over the years, including in Alice's Nightmare in Wonderland.

But I have never referenced the novel quite so directly as I will be in a project I plan to be working on next year...
