Mr Stoker and the Vampires of the Lyceum

This novel combines historical fiction, mystery, and horror. Using references to Bram Stoker's Dracula and the infamous Jack the Ripper case, Matthew Gibson beautifully recreates the Victorian era and its literary and cultural atmosphere. As manager of the Lyceum Theatre, Bram Stoker investigates mysterious attacks that seem to involve vampires. Along the way, he meets Oscar Wilde, Arthur Conan Doyle, Henry Irving, Ellen Terry, and Count Dracula. Until the end, I was hooked on suspense, humor, and clever twists. I liked Gibson's use of Scottish dialect and attention to detail when describing the theater world and Gothic genre. Besides being a tribute to Bram Stoker, the book's original and fun. Fans of historical fiction, mystery, or horror should check this out. There's a lot of good writing in this book. While remaining true to the genre, it explores the differences between Gothic literature and modern horror. Until the end, the story keeps you hooked. This is a must-read for fans of horror and Gothic literature.
