The wreck of the Dmitry

... that the 1885 wreck of the cargo ship Dmitry (pictured) was the inspiration for the arrival of Count Dracula in England in Bram Stoker's 1897 novel?

Source: "Stoker was inspired by the shipwreck of a Russian schooner, the Dmitry, which was wrecked in a storm in October 1885 on the sands just below St Mary’s Churchyard and Whitby Abbey. In Stoker’s imagination, the ship is renamed the Demeter and carries Dracula and his coffins of Transylvanian soil to Whitby." from: "How did a Yorkshire seaside town inspire one of Britain's most famous novels?". Hull University. 23 November 2021. Retrieved 6 August 2024.
