On August 8, 1890, Bram Stoker wandered into a Whitby library and discovered an obscure book citing a character with which the town would ultimately become synonymous.

136 years later, we followed in Stoker's footsteps by making our own voyage of discovery to Whitby.

While less seismic, our finds also owe much to serendipity including an item procured from a white van man met in the street; a great piece liberated from a bad car boot sale; and a set of grave markers almost as dark as Dracula ๐Ÿง›โ€โ™‚๏ธ
