Editor's Take:
Bram Stoker created the most famous vampire of all. He was a sickly child in Dublin who could barely walk until he was seven. He grew up to be a university athlete and a civil servant. He wrote theatre reviews and became friends with the great actor Henry Irving. For 27 years he managed Irving's Lyceum Theatre in London. In his spare time he wrote novels. Dracula, published in 1897, told its story through letters and diaries. It sold modestly in his lifetime, but its count became a global icon.
