well i guess in one way i would agree with you but the question "why is his body not in his tomb?" does arise so as to speak!

Dracula refers to a real person Vlad the Terrible who lived in Transylvania, Romania. He used to impale his foes on spiked posts around his castle. Supposed to be true.

nope. it is just a legend. dracula never existed. Vlad Tepes, or Vlad the Impaler if you want, ruled a part of the country and he used to impale the enemies of the country. Dracula comes from the name of his father wich was Vlad Dracul but that was only a name. no vampires or other kind of creatures in Transylvania....sorry :)
