I read a review of Verne's Carpathian Castle, which pre-dates Victorian Dracula. It complained that it was unrealistic etc, as if it was set in contemporary times.
I'm old enough to have stayed in houses with no bathroom or inside toilet, or in one case it had those and no mains electricity. In my first job we typed the weekly report on a mechanical typewriter, though minicomputers and the first CP/M 8080 based homecomputers existed.
