Vlad the Impaler of Romania. Yes, as his name implies he was not very nice. He liked to impale ppl on poles, then watch for days as they suffered before they died. There are no accounts however of him drinking blood...
He was called Dracula as a nickname. I believe it means Dragon. But in an evil way...

AHAHAHAHA,lmao,Dracula is a surname,if you mean vampire,than first vampires were mentioned in ancient Greek stories.Dracula is actually a title,because count Vlad Tzepesh was a member of the order of dragon which means Dracul on Romanian,so Dracula.

Dracula is a person's name, not a thing. Did you mean the first 'vampire'? Vampires are myths, they aren't real. Dracula was a fictional character loosely based on Prince Vlad of what is now Romania.

No such vampire ever existed. It was created by Bram Stoker for his novel.
However it is loosely based on two people and their myths. Vlad Tepes,the Impaler (guess what he was famous for doing to his enemies) and Countess Elizabeth Bathory of Hungary who killed and bathed in the blood of a series of virginal girls from a local village, in an effort to stay young
