Blogpost # 2: Mythical truth about Dracula's life


Well I am a big fan of Dracula since my high school life. Because of his Famous movies like "Van helsing", and "Fright Night". one of my best movies ever. And also it's Funny accent.

Now What's behind those fangs? Maybe you know who Dracula is, Well he is the Famous and the Legendary Vampire. And do you know what his real name is? His name is Vlad III Dracula. Dracula means "Son of Dracul" in Romanian. Therefore young Vlad was "Son of the dragon" or "Son of the devil." He is also the Walachian Prince in the past 15th century.


I was Browsing the internet and I found a related article about my topic called "The Terrifying Truth about Dracula", Written by David Johnson. David discussed the history of the Famous Vampire, Vlad III Dracula.

In the article it contains the origin of the vampire Dracula, where what is his life before he became a vampire. It said here the misery and sadness he take without anyone on his side. The emotions conquer his heart to push himself to revenge his family at any cause.

When I read David's article this phrases got my attention.
"Dracula's Father was murdered, while his older brother, Mircea was blinded with red-hot-iron stakes and buried alive," Says David Johnson


For me if you merge the emotion of anger and misery, It can cause you hatred to all, You will  not care of anyone even yourself, The next thing will happen is Suicidal attempt and that can cause you death.




Once more while searching an interesting article about my topic I found, "The many Life's of Count Dracula", Written by Gail-Nina Anderson.

In this article Mrs. Anderson Discussed about how did Bram Stoker's Count created the template for the modern Vampires, a little history about Dracula, And in this article they are like counting, How many Movies and Novels did the character Dracula was involved to. It is also showed how Dracula look's like what his voice sound like. In this article it said that the novel started to become the focus of an academic/critical industry.
And lastly how it Evolves how did they rejuvenate the character Dracula, Because in reality the famous vampire Dracula is a Fictional Character made by Braham Stoker.

"This is the period when the novel started to become the focus of an academic/critical industry and the Romanian connection became more widely known,"Says Gail Nina Anderson.

It's so fascinating how the story goes how it ends, The creativeness of Braham is  so rare.
For now the name Dracula still lives in our culture and will never be erased, the creation of Braham Stoker will live.
