Summary:
From appearances in
films
and animated features to interpretations as a Muppet and breakfast cereal mascot,
Dracula
has been the inspiration for many other fictional vampires and is now an established figure in pop culture. Created by Bram Stoker in his 1897 Gothic horror novel, Count
Dracula
is a nobleman who uses his powers as a vampire to dominate his victims. Even though
Dracula
didn't succeed in the novel, the fictional character has lived on to dominate the real world as one of its most popular supernatural villains. Author Michael Burgan explores
Dracula
's mysterious origins in the historical figures who might have shaped the character, as well as the
films
and actors that cemented
Dracula
's place in cinematic
history
.
Audience:
Age 8-12.
