David Robertson gives us a view of society in Douglas as it was in 1791, where some indulged in luxuries whilst others suffered destitution. We meet some characters whom we've encountered in other descriptions of the Island in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.

In our translation of Dracula into the Manx Gaelic, Professor Van Helsing and Dr John Seward agree that Lucy Westenra's life depends on a blood transfusion. John Seward offers his, but just then Lucy's fiance, Arthur Holmwood, arrives and is only too glad to give his blood to save Lucy.
