In October 2020 Hamilton Gallery in Sligo hosted an exhibition of paintings and sculpture themed around the writings of Bram Stoker. It featured works by artists Mike Bunn, Patrick Colhoun, Grahamm Gingles, Lisa Gingles, Cara Gordon, Paula Pohli, Gerard Scott and Eleanor Swan.

The exhibition was opened by Dr Marion McGarry and Dr Fiona Gallagher of the Sligo Stoker Society. Sligo town was the childhood home of Bram Stokers mother Charlotte Mathilda Blake Thornley. Charlottes written account of yer horrors of a Cholera pandemic that took hold in Sligo in 1832 inspired the writings of Bram Stoker, including how most famous novel Dracula. In this short video produced by Joseph Hunt, Drs McGarry and Gallagher officially open the exhibition and their introduction is interspersed with images of the works contained in the exhibition.
