By David Yeagley
FrontPageMagazine.com | October 15, 2001

Thank you both for the links. I, like so many others, have only viewed "Dracula" through the eyes of movie goers who were thrilled and chilled by the vampire that came at night. I flatly did not know that Dracula, in essence, was a good force in the history of mankind. When faced with the invasion of the Muslim hordes, he knew what to do. And he didn't put panties on their heads and give them three square meals a day at GiTMO! Bless you Count Dracula! If your tactics worked then, they will work now. I imagine they will as well against fanatical Muslims and famatical North Koreans!

Except that his real name was Vlad Tepas and his father's nickname, which the family took for a last name, was DRACUL; not "Dracula".

Bram Stoker knew about this king, but actually based the character ( DRACULA ) on the personality of England's most famous actor/theatre manager of the time, for whom Bram worked.

Oh and IIRC Dracul translates to the English word "dragon".
