Author Bram Stoker (November 8, 1847 – April 20, 1912) is best known for virtually inventing the Gothic vampire genre in literature when he penned his classic novel, Dracula (1897), which inspired more than 20 film adaptations between 1921 and 2000. The sequel, Dracula's Guest, was not published until 40 years after Dracula. Stoker also wrote The Mystery of the Sea and Famous Imposters, as well as The Lair of the White Worm, which was filmed in 1988 by director Ken Russell. Stoker also worked as the manager of the Irving Lyceum Theater. Stoker was born Abraham Stoker in Dublin, Ireland.

It's usually best to give a very general overview to a story first, then plot details. When including the plot or essential details in your article (which could ruin the pleasure of discovery for some readers), it is important to include the spoiler tag before any give-away material.
