Our 1791 tour guide, David Robertson, takes us out of Douglas and through Santon to Ballasalla. It gives us an opportunity to explore something of the history of Newtown (now Mount Murray) and an early industrial  enterprise in Ballasalla, using the power of the Silverburn to drive a cotton mill. Dr John Seward can't understand what Professor Van Helsing's reason is for his elaborate precautions involving garlic flowers all round Lucy Westenra's bedroom and even in a wreath round her neck. However, the Professor is satisfied that this will give Lucy an undisturbed night. Our version in the Manx Gaelic of Bram Stoker's 'Dracula' brings a dramatic surprise for the Professor.
