Abraham Stoker (1847-1912), better known as Bram, was born on this date, November 8. Of course, you’ve all heard of him. He wrote this little book about a vampire. No, not Varney. Dracula.

Anyway, even if he had never written anything else, (he did write other stuff, you know) he would be remembered for that one novel.

So happy birthday, Bram.
