Stoker
Irish gothic novelist
Stoker as a surname is most associated with Bram Stoker, the Irish author who wrote *Dracula* (1897), the novel that established modern vampire mythology.
The name occasionally appears in reference to his work or influence: a Stoker-esque atmosphere of Gothic dread. (Lowercase stoker is one who tends a furnace.)
