Well, it would probably be beneficial if you read the book. Apparently, the character of Dracula was loosely based on Romania's tyrant leader Vlad Dracul or "Vlad the Impaler". Who was famous for (obviously) impaling his victims and was depicted in a painting or woodcut sitting at a table drinking red wine (or blood, as many decided), amidst a forest of impaled bodies.

do you mean Dracula as in from the book? or Dracula the real vampire? if you're wondering about Dracula from the book, i suggest reading it (its on my "Really want to read soon" book list). if you are wondering about Dracula as a real vampire, he can be very cocky... and arrogent.... but he's also very protective of anyone he knows, and will fight to the death to save someone he loves.

Vlad the Impaler drank the blood of his subjects as did some others in medieval times. I just a few days ago read that there is atrain of thought that people in those times and areas were possibly severely anemic and may have drank blood to raise their iron levels. I don't know about that, but seriously? Ew.

dracula was not a vampire...he was a man who lived in medieval times, a prince i believe
most ways of torture came from him, he was called a vampire because he was so pale and people believed he sucked the blood of his victims, he killed his wife and kids i believe
he would blind people then walk them off an embankment filled with sharp points and they would die, or he would castrate them and such like that

A true vampire is prosessed by a demon (Fallen angels). That does have magical powers of illusions. So what you see is what they wish for you to see.....................
