Bram Stoker was born on a day like this in 1847 in Dublin. He is best known as the author of the\u00a0Gothic<\/a>\u00a0horror tale\u00a0Dracula<\/em>. Stoker’s creation is one of the world’s most iconic characters and has inspired many other books, films and tv series. However do you know that some other writer wrote about vampires before him? For example Lord Byron mentioned the vampire in one of his poems, and his personal doctor Polidori, wrote the novel The Vampyre, which he wrote because Lord Byron proposed a horror styory challenge to his friends who were spending a very cold and stormy summer with him. Mary Shelley who was one of them wrote the novel Frankenstein or the Modern Propmetheus. But, undoubtley it was Bram Stoker\u2019s Dracula, the masterpiece which would influence all the movies and the image that we have of a vampire.<\/h4>\n

Before writing\u00a0Dracula,<\/em>\u00a0Stoker spent eight years researching European folklore and stories of vampires, while he was researching he ran across an intriguing word in the\u00a0Romanian<\/a>\u00a0language: “Dracul,” meaning “Devil.”, that\u2019s why he decided to call his count Dracula. Whether he based his character on the historic fiugure of Vlad the Impaler remains debated.<\/h4>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
