We all know the name Dracula — the immortal vampire of legend.
But few know the man behind the myth.
His name was Vlad III of Wallachia — a 15th-century prince who ruled not with fangs, but with fear.
To protect his land from invaders, he used brutal tactics that turned his name into legend.
Centuries later, his story inspired Bram Stoker’s Dracula — and blurred the line between history and horror.
Who was he, really... a monster, or a ruler born of chaos?
