Join the Sharon Historical Society, in collaboration with the Warren Historical Players and The Block by Nova Destinations, as we host “Love at First Bite: Vampires & Craft Beer!,” a unique lecture with an alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverage included. Former professor Dr. Ronald Brooks and local physician Dr. Gregory George will give the story behind the story of vampires through myths, superstitions, legends, and reality with authoritative historical research. Learn details on the medical condition that spurred superstition and folklore. Hear how literature and cinema then spread the legend from the 1800’s to the present.This lecture is provided by Dr. Ronald Brooks who has appeared in many historical reenactments in the Western Reserve of Northeast Ohio. You may have seen him in one of his reenactments of General Simon Perkins or David Tod, Ohio’s Civil War Governor. Perhaps you have seen him as a Victorian Gentleman in his presentation of Victorian Spiritualism, to name just a few. Dr. Brooks is proud to be a member of the Warren Historical Players. He has brought to his presentations and other performances an in-depth knowledge of the Victorian Era, Spiritualism, and the history of the Ohio Western Reserve. Dr. Brooks is recognized as an authority in all things Victorian and local history. Two of his recent books are “In the Shadow of the Spire: Historical Profiles of Warren Ohio” and “A Journey into the Spirit World.” His Ph.D. is in education, and he is a tenured full professor. He holds a Master’s Degree in mathematics and a Bachelor’s Degree in education and history. He has won numerous awards for his teaching ability. Dr. Gregory George is a local physician. He volunteered for the Trumbull County Historical Society portraying Henry Bishop Perkins and Judge Frederick Kinsman in character and costume. He is enthusiastic about being part of Warren Historical Players. He portrayed several local iconic leaders, including Dr. Peter Allen, W.D. Packard, and Clearance Darrow. He portrayed Charles Dickens during the Players’ Christmas event. Dr. George played the role of Dr. Ephraim King in the PBS Documentary Engineering Tragedy: The Ashtabula Train Disaster, produced and directed by Len Brown of Beacon Productions.
