Imma need a bucket of popcorn for this chapter
A picture of a page with "But Seward is hardly Stoker's mouthpiece in Dracula; in fact he is a narrow-minded, bumbling character whose inability to put aside his scientific prejudices repeatedly precipitates disaster." In pink highlighter. Next to it is "Holy shit" written in blue pen as a note.

Saw this in Southampton Waterstones and just had to get my hands on it! I already have a beautiful copy of Stoker's short stories, so this is a copy I can highlight to pieces!

It also has the newly discovered Gibbet Hill 🦇
A small white penguin archive book with red text. "Bram Stoker. The Burial of the Rats." A red book with silver holographic decoration detailing numerous rats. In the middle it says "The Burial of the Rats & other tales of the macabre by Bram Stoker. Edited by Xavier Aldana Reyes." This book is published by The British Library.

Finally reading through this number! Surprisingly easy to digest and would recommend for anyone casting their eye towards minor characters in fiction!

Definitely fueling my inspiration for my next PhD chapter 🦇

My partner and I went on a lovely little long weekend to Glenshee. Gave me real 'Monarch of the Glen' vibes.

And driving through the Cairngorms on a foggy evening didn't help my murder mystery craving either...
