Description: Many members of Dracula's supporting cast have had their own stories retold, most notably Mina Harker and more recently Van Helsing. But never has the entire history of a character as minor as Timothy Clifton, grocer to the already minor character Dr. Seward, been explored!
Briefly mentioned only once about a third of the way into Bram Stoker's classic horror novel, Timothy Clifton had what turns out to be an incredibly rich and varied history as a normal person who never had even the tiniest inkling as to his close brush with the supernatural. Following his father and his father before him, Timothy is quite the grocer in London-town, struggling against rising vegetable costs and an occasionally wild crime rate to deliver groceries fresh and on time to many fine Londoners, including Dr. Seward. But when Timothy finds himself falling in love with the beautiful Marietta, will his grocery business suffer? In short, is it possible to live life on your own terms, or are we all doomed to a life of compromises?
Timothy Clifton's enriching story holds the answer to this question and many more. Plus, the Wolfman attacks!
