Reply to comment by ElleEast in An Investigation into Vlad Tepes by MiguelPolimatus

He's literally from the house of draculesti, and has been called and even signed as different variations of Vlad Dracula if I remember correctly and a son of vlad dracul. He most definitely is an inspiration.

he is, and probably Stoker got the name from a book on Transilvanian history.. what I'm saying is that there's no mention at all in the novel that Dracula is Vlad, he tells a story to Jonathan about his ancesters, and mixes the story of different characters, like Vlad II into Radu, or Radu's history like it was Mircea's
