If you did not know it yet, Dracula once walked the earth and he never sucked blood like he did in the famous novel but whether or not he drank blood remained unanswered. He enjoyed the sight of blood squirting from the bodies of the thieves that is for sure and his favorite punishment was impalement. This is the reason why he was called Vlad the Impaler.

If you are to ask someone from Transylvania, they would tell you upfront that Dracula was their hero. Dracula was a nationwide recognized public hero of his land who fought against the Turks all throughout his lifetime to protect his people. According to history he won the famous battle named The Night Attack against the turks when he disguised his army and the Turks began to fight each other. This was the scene when a big army failed in front of the very small Romanian army.

In 1569, he ordered the capture of some boyars known as noblemen, condemning the healthy ones to slavery and the impalement of the old and weak ones. His oppression has begun! Twenty thousand people were impaled, many were skinned to death, hearts were extracted from live bodies. As we know, those who were murdered were thieves, traitors, etc.
