'''Dracula''' is a fictional [[vampire]], the subject of the 1897 [[novel]] by [[Bram Stoker]], and of many film, stage and TV adaptations since.
The novel links him with the historical figure [[Vlad the Impaler]], a [[Wallachia|Wallachian]] prince noted for his unusual cruelty, suggesting that he became a vampire through study of the 'black arts', or occultism.
