DRACULA-MY LOVE THE LEGEND

As bats flap through the musty castle, a coffin lid creaks open and an ashy white hand gropes for the cover. The lid slides off and a caped figure rises in the gloom - Dracula is on the prowl! Vampires have enthralled generations of readers and moviegoers; and the most popular 'vampire' is the fearsome Count Dracula of Transylvania.

Vlad ruled Wallachia (now part of Romania - in southeastern Europe) more than 600 years ago and is believed to have been very, very cruel. Vlad wasn't a vampire at all, but he did invent some spine-chilling forms of torture and used the nickname "Dracul" or "Dracula" which means both "devil" and "dragon."

The Transylvanian people conception about Count Dracula was described as the king of darkness, unpredictable savage and furthermore a human feeder to repopulate his own existence throughout the humanity.

Dracula feeds on blood of citizens, so his own existence can expand throughout Europe and the nations. The other physical change that surprises people is when Count Dracula changes into werewolf. Shadow is a darkened image brings about by something that blocks the light but in Count Dracula case, the theory changes. When a beast changes this physical appearance to fool human and the shadow that moves before or after the beast is considered to be an unpredictable savage causing fear to all human kind.

He is a vampire who has been alive for several hundred years He is a vampire who has been alive for several hundred years. He keeps himself alive by sucking blood from live victims. He is a tall old man, with a long white mustache and is dressed in black from head to toe.

One of the major factors in the horror of Dracula is that so much of Count Dracula's actions are centered around the carnal and bestial, desires which are considered unnatural for humans. The Count is purely carnal and animal in nature, making him so terrifying for the men and women that become ensnared in his bloodlust. An example of The Count's animalistic traits can be found in his appearance. With his sharp canine teeth and rather hairy body, The Count certainly gives the impression of being something other than human.
