On Monday, October 16 at 7:00 p.m. meet Abraham "Bram" Stoker (1847-1912), the Irish writer, best known for his vampire novel Dracula, and Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849), one of the greatest and unhappiest of American poets, a master of the horror tale and the patron saint of the detective story. These two authors, dressed in authentic period clothing, sip red wine from goblets as they chat about their lives, their inspirations and their disappointments. The lights will be dimmed as these scribes read from their works.
