Dracula?
I need more details about the relation between Dracula and Vampire ? Is Dracula is a bad-guy or the good-guy? If he is a vampire, then what makes him turn into a vampire?
Please, at least tell me something, im confused here.

not always...
the myths about turning into a vamp are quite messed up... some say there must be a blood exchange between the vamp and the victim, others just say the more the vamp drains, the bigger the chance to change ...and there is also the "dead for three days" thing...

The real one? That depends on one thing - do you actually believe there are Vampires in RL? If you do - you may think he's a vampire. If you don't - we have nothing to talk about.

Now i see that the real Drakula is not sucking blood or turn into bat or something (thanks to Lith, i spent most of this day for reading the articles). =)
That movie called "Dark Prince" is really confusing me. The movie said that it is the true story of Vlad Dracula. 90% of the movie is not telling me that Vlad is a vampire, no sucking blood, turn into wolf or bat, etc. But in the end of the movie, Vlad is killed but after a few days, he is awaken from his grave. And peoples finds nothing but an animal corpse in Vlad grave, leaving a mystery for me.
So that's it.
btw, who is this malena ?? a spammer?

Okay, since no one here seems to be getting any real progress done, allow me to explain about Dracula.
There are two Draculas. First, there is the real, historical Dracula. Vladimir Dracula, also known as Vlad the Impaler, was a ruler in Romania(quite creul; he had a habit of impaling anyone he didn't like, hence his nickname)
The other Dracula, the character written of by Bram Stoker, was based upon Vlad and a certain countess(I'm not sure where she was from, though.) Anyways, this countess was slightly(nah, MAJORLY) deranged, and at night rode around the countryside in a carriage, kidnapping young girls. Then she would take them back to her castle, and drain their blood, which she would drink and bathe in.
Back to BS's Dracula. This Dracula was killed by Jonathan Harker in Bram's novel(trust me, this Dracula was nasty). However, notes by Bram Stoker have been discovered, that seem to be concerning a sequel to Dracula. Unfortunately, they were found after Stoker died on a ship.
This could mean that Stoker was planning to resurrect Dracula. The synopsis of the book was a year later, Harker returns with his wife and son to Castle Dracula, and strange things happen, etc.
Anyways, th-th-th-th-that's all, folks!

Ok, as it seems that no romanians have answered here, i'll try to explain:
Vlad the Impaler was a prince in one of the three romanina kingdoms existing in those times. His father had also been ruker, and because the ototman empire had a habbit of asking for a child of the rulers of the countries they had canquered(though none of the romanian kingdoms was ever completly occupied), he had to do the same.
So, Vlad grew up at the court of the sultan. There he learned their customs and tactics( which he later used to kick some major A$$ ) and when he became of age, he bought the throne(again, otoman custom).
In the meantime, his father had payed a visit to the chinese emperor and there he received a claock with a dragon design. The romanian peasants, not knowing what a chinese dragon was(obiously) gave him the nickname The Devil. In romanian: Dracul.
So, his son, earned the nickname, Dracula, which in old romanian translates simlar to "the son of the devil". He His rulership was interupted briefly when he was once defeated by the turks, but he came back and won, though he leaved for a short while longer.
Now, the rumors and legends of his crulety exist since his time. They were started by the german manufacturing guilds in Transilvania(now, he did NOT rule in Transilvania) because he had taken away some of their privileges(such as not paying customs fees, and so on.) So they made a letter in which they described his "cruelty" and sent it to the pope and all the big kings at the time.
True, he was not the gentlest king we ever had, but legend has it the in his time one could leave a pouch of gold at a crossroad and could find it in the same spot one week later. He impaled only thievs, criminals, traitors(most of all).
Well, this is a VERY brief history of Vlad the Imapler.
Bram Stoker was just a demented writer who had nowhere to let out his problems and he decided to write a book. He never visited ANY part of Romania, and al he wrote is based on different stories he had heard.
I wish him all the worst and may he never find peace.
