I've been feeling the urge to revisit the iconic, 1930s #Dracula with Lugosi for a while, and since it is #DraculaDay it seems like an approriate evening to pick this from my film library (I have a nice set of the 1930s and 40s Universal horror flicks, a perfect gift from a chum years ago).

Happy #DraculaDay to my fellow Gothic Fiends. Stoker's enormously influential tale first published on this day in 1897, and just like the Count himself, seemingly immortal, never out of print, endlessly adapted to stage, film, games, even to muppet form, a mythos endlessly malleable to fit each generation's fear and desires.

It's #DraculaDay 🧛‍♂️
Today, on May 26, is the anniversary of the publication of Bram Stoker’s Dracula - from 1897. This day has therefore been dubbed "Dracula Day".
I have written a very queer Dracula fanfiction with polyamory.

It was on this day in 1897 Bram Stoker unleashed Dracula unto the world... #dracula #draculaday #worlddraculaday #bramstoker 🦇🦇🦇

Cutting his teeth: how Bram Stoker found his inner Dracula in Scotland

“[Mike] Shepherd… believes the author deliberately pinpointed Cruden Bay, north of Aberdeen – then called Port Erroll, a small fishing village with a sandy beach & a windswept cliff-top fort named Slains Castle – as a retreat where he could concentrate on his writing”

Part of a page from Cruden Recipes and Wrinkles (1912). The paper is old and slightly spotted with age.

Salads, Sauces, &c.

SALAD.
(Mrs PIRIE, Bank House, Lonmay).
Wash and pick two heads of lettuce. Shred them, and add the white of a hard boiled egg cut in rings. Pound the yolk. Add a little salt, a large teaspoonful of made mustard, one breakfastcupful of cream, and a little vinegar. Mix well. Pour over the lettuce, and turn over the whole a few times with a spoon and fork. If liked a few slices of tomato may be added.

THE "DRACULA" SALAD.
(Mrs BRAM STOKER, 26 St George's Square, London, S.W.)
Arrange alternate slices of ripe tomatoes, and ripe, purple, egg-shaped plums in dish, and dress with oil and vinegar French dressing.

BREAD SAUCE.
(Mrs J. SMITH, Easterton, Peterhead).
1/2 pint milk.
2 cloves.
1 small onion.
2 oz. bread crumbs.
Pepper and salt.
1 oz. butter.

Stick the cloves in the onion. Put the milk in a saucepan. Add the onion, and set at the side of stove for half an hour. Warm it, but do not boil. Shake out the onion and add the crumbs, butter, salt, and a good pinch of pepper. Stir until the bread crumbs have absorbed the milk.

The Scottish anthropologist who inspired Dracula

“More decidedly evil is the nosferatu, or vampire, in which every Roumanian peasant believes as firmly as he does in heaven or hell…”

—from THE LAND BEYOND THE FOREST: Facts, Figures, & Fancies from Transylvania (1888), by Airdrie’s own Emily Gerard. Gerard’s work was a key part of Bram Stoker’s research materials for Dracula.
