About this Event

Join the award-winning author of the Gothics Undead series, Richard Gadz, this Halloween for Dracula and Frankenstein: origins and influence. Richard will reveal the influences that culminated in the famous novels by Mary Shelley and Bram Stoker, and explore how the stage and film depictions of these characters, which are still prevalent today, came to life.

Richard Gadz is the author of gothic thrillers The Eater of Flies (launching this October), The Workshop of Filthy Creation, (winner of the Best Horror Award in the 2022 New Generation Indie Book Awards and shortlisted for the Rubery Prize for Fiction) and horror novel The Burn Street Haunting. www.richardgadz.co.uk @frankenwriter
