Who's Dracula?

The name of Count Dracula first appeared in the novel "Dracula" written by Bram Stoker in 1897. The main plot is that Drakula, a former count of Transylvania, led the troops out of the city to fight the Turks, leaving his newly-married wife in the castle. In order to shake the morale of the army in the city, the Turks lied to the city that the count had died. When his wife heard about it, she believed it and committed suicide. Unexpectedly, when the count returned from victory, he was shocked to hear that his beloved wife had died, and he was in pain. At this time, the church people in the city said to the count: since the lady committed suicide, she violated the doctrine, so she could not get the blessing of the church. When the count heard of it, he was so angry that his anger rushed to the sky. He asked, Is this the church I fought for and maintained with my life? ! He vowed to be an enemy of the church from now on, so he became the eternal king of vampires.

But this character is not imaginary. In fact, there was a Dracula--Vlad the Impaler in the 15th century. Stoker doesn't know him very well. In fact, he found this name in a book called An Account of the Principality Ties of Wallachia and Moldavia when he was looking up information. There is a short space in the book to describe Dracula who is at war with the Turks. But what really attracted attention was the footnote in the book, "Dracula means devil in the language of Wallachia (a former kingdom in southeastern Europe, which became a part of Romania in 1861)".

Coppola's films are basically faithful to the original, but he added another plot line.

Dracula is arguably the most famous vampire in history. In 1924, 12 years after Stoke's death, "Drakula" was first put on the stage. It was repeated in London in 1927 and was a great success. In September of the same year, it was staged on Broadway in new york, and vampire Delacou finally became a legend. His evening dress and black cloak on the stage have since become the same features of modern vampire image. In 1931, The Vampire Mad Man, the first audio film based on Drakula, was released. From 1922 to 1994, there were at least 23 movies about vampires. ～
