Is it possible to meet Count Dracula here in the dark at Bran Castle? Maybe, maybe not, but that is the story that is connected to the castle.
Dracula is fiction (or is it, you never know) and arose on the basis of the Irish author Bram Stoker's novel "Dracula", which is about a count who leaves his castle at night and drinks human blood. In modern Romanian, dracul means "The Devil" (

Vlad Tepes was known for his barbaric method of execution and at one time lived in this area. Bram Stoker's fictional castle is similar to Bran Castle and it has been understood to exploit this in terms of tourism.
Every year, the castle is visited by over 700,000 people who get the experience of a bit of creepiness in the castle. The castle is a museum dedicated to displaying art and furniture collected by Queen Marie. But the castle is also furnished with props from Dracula's universe, including a torture chamber.
