The Masterpiece at a Glance
Narrative Style: An epistolary novel structured through diaries, letters, newspaper clippings, and ship logs.
The Plot: Chronicles the journey of Transylvanian nobleman Count Dracula as he relocates to England to feed on fresh blood, and the subsequent efforts of a small group of people led by Professor Abraham Van Helsing to stop him.
Creation & Inspiration: Stoker spent years researching Stoker's Transylvanian folklore. The name "Dracula" was found in the Whitby public library, which Stoker assumed meant "devil".
The Legacy
Though Stoker made little financial profit from the book during his lifetime, it went on to become one of the most influential works in Western literature. It established many modern conventions of vampire fantasy and has spawned thousands of theatrical, film, and television adaptations. Due to the novel's profound cultural impact, May 26th is annually celebrated worldwide as World Dracula Day.
Congratulations to @IMP85. Your Huli Huli recipe was chosen for tonight’s Sunday Suppers. After a fierce showdown between Imp amd @Arius-Trychus, the sugar won this round. I got the entries down to two and Mark chose the winner. Oh, and it was delicious. Sorry @Arius-Trychus, sweet always talks louder for Mark.
@Imp85, please keep an eye out for an email from a Gutter Team Member.

Jesse had a "no kings" segment on his show. Most of us are just living our lives and want peace and to not be bothered. We don't have time or energy to waste on demonstrations, etc., especially after what they did to the J6 people. However, if we all did hit the streets just like the "No Kings" demonstrations, boy would they all be surprised at the "silent majority". We the taxpayers and working/retired people who have contributed to society all our lives. I just hope we can make our votes count in November.
