This fragment of faith is in reference to the most famous story ever written by author Bram Stoker, Dracula. At this time of year, what could be more fitting? Stoker was a Protestant who was raised in the predominantly Catholic Ireland. His most famous story of all contains many truly Catholic symbols such as the Eucharist being used to ward of pure evil, the use of holy water, the symbol of the cross and even the persona of Dracula himself, a portrait of the antichrist. Religion is an important part of this book.  During this season try it out if you’ve never read it. It might have an influence on you like it did for me.
