It is 1897, and confined to his room in Carfax Criminal Lunatic
Asylum, Dr Richard Renfield is dying from injuries which could not
be self-inflicted. His door has been barricaded from the inside and
the Night Watcher swears nobody has been allowed in or out. With
his last words he imparts a dire warning: "He is here." Moving
between London, Yorkshire and Ceylon across the 19th Century,
Visitor in Lunacy re-imagines the downfall of the enigmatic inmate
from Bram Stoker's Dracula, from a feared and respected member of
the government's Lunacy Commission to a resident of one of the
madhouses he once oversaw. It is a bizarre and unsettling tale of
memory, regret and horror; of how the terrible secrets of a
person's childhood can inescapably shape their life.
