Last year, McFarland’s published a facsimile edition of Stoker’s Notes (transcribed and annotated by Robert Eighteen-Bisang and Dr. Elizabeth Miller). This volume gave the public the chance to view all 124 pages of Bram Stoker’s working Notes for Dracula. The original notes were auctioned at Sotheby’s in 1913 and are now housed in the Rosenbach Museum in Philadelphia.
Dr. Elizabeth Miller is a widely published authority on Dracula and she will be visiting the UK at the end of April. She will be lecturing at the National Library of Ireland on April 28th and will also be making a visit to Whitby (hope it lives up to her expectations!).
Dr. Miller (who is a Dracula Society member, although she lives in Toronto) will also be speaking to the society in London at the beginning of May.
Should be quite an enlightening meeting and, as usual, I can’t get to London to attend. Maybe I’ll bump into her in Whitby as she counts the 199 Steps

I will be in Whitby for 2 nights – April 29 and 30. The full day of the 30th will be devoted to filming a documentary, so look for us in the graveyard…
