Fun fact: The "vampire" the Austrian doctor was supposed to exam was Sava Savanovic, a local celebrity in a Serbian village, who everybody feared. He disproved it and explained the case to Austrians, but the Serbs remained firm in the belief that Sava rises every month. His mill (the mill is an ominous symbol in Serbian folklore on its own) is still avoided by the villagers to this day. It is also a tourist attraction, by day of course
@@bluecat299 mills are built in remote location, usually outside the village. These locations are scary enough on their own at night, but you also gotta factor in a huge number of stories about mills being cursed. Also, Sava's mill is located in a thick forest, which doesn't help
Imagine being poor seven-year-old Bram Stoker “Mom...I don’t feel so good.” “Awwwww, do you wan to hear a story?” “Sure!” “When I was young, there was a terrible disease, killing many, many people, and we had to bury others alive! Also, there’re some thingies called vampires or something who wake up after dying and become carnivourous bloodthirsty monsters and kill everyone in our town I think. Goodnight!”
I highly doubt he disliked those moments, I think most children at young age would like to hear horror, shocking stories over wholesome, happy sappy ones
You do have a good point, and I do think that it would be important to mention that in the video (considering that Florence Stoker is dead and Bram Stoker's great grand-nephew Dacre Stoker was unable to keep creative control of the property for very long). However, Nosferatu began bringing the story into the public eye while the Bela Lugosi version (the first authorized film version of Dracula) was the film that catapulted Dracula into mainstream media, with the novel going into the public domain expanding off of the fame set by the film versions (particularly from Lugosi, whom everyone likes to mimic with his Hungarian accent and widow's peak). Without them, I don't think Dracula would have the fame he now has today, and thus would we not have Christopher Lee and Gary Oldman to carry the torch.
It comes from dragon because his father was member of the Order of the Dragon, an order of Christian noblemen founded by Holy Roman Emperor Sigismund to combat the Turks. Draculea just meant "son of the dragon".
Vlad the Impaler was known as Dracula and he was what the character was inspired by. Vlad was known for having a tower in his castle that was high up. On the ground below the tower he had spikes planted in the ground. He would take his enemies up to the top of the tower and push them over the edge to the spikes below killing them. Vlad was called Dracula because the translations stands for "Dragon". The current British royal family are actually distant relations of Vlad the Impaler.
lol, idk if that's a good bedtimes story "when i was a little girl the village had an outbreak of cholera, it was so bad that we had to bury people alive in mass graves. g'night son, sweet dreams"
I was thrilled to see someone finally say that Vlad Tepes was not the inspiration for Count Dracula. Stoker only copied the name "Dracula" from a document or book he used as research. It's like the canard that Bob Kane was the sole creator of Batman.
This playlist reminded me of the first serious poem I had ever written; it was for the final project during my high school senior year drama class. I think this poem took me a weeks time, and a lot of walking to write haha. A softly tinted candy colored horizon, brings about the end to the first day in a long forever. A cool dawn breeze flows across the endless lakefront. As gulls playfully pass by, you hear a sound close to your heart, yet unrecognizable. You follow the narrow pier but reach its sudden end. Still the sound continues, haunting your every memory trying to recognize the tones of the benevolent falsetto. With tears beginning to swell, you leap into the open waters, and fight the storm of the ocean with no guide but the sweet serenade, drowning out even the crack of waves 20 feet tall. As you near, you begin to hear the faint sounds of the one who saved your life. Rather now this blissful sound has evolved into a bellowing melody of beautiful rhymes and utterance. And soon you learn the goodnight you heard, was the final product of 10,000 words. When can true bliss exist? When are we allowed to feel love with complete freedom? When is self-actualization a reality? The hollows of one’s mind may destroy these ideas before we can embrace them. Try as we may, failure and pain are a part of realizing these ideas, and those realties, fearfully may never come. But with withered realities and dreams comes hope. A hero, a warrior, an entity of love. A banner held high with morals of unmistakable value. A shield clashed with the iron clad of failure. And stripes of battles taken by victory. A sword dulled by the slashing of demons, only to be sharpened in preparation for what may be their last quarrel. At night both warrior and weak reflect on the dust settled and which star to follow. But where love is given in recur, its return is curtain. Those saved never forget, as those who fight may never fully understand.
I prefer listening to them rather than reading them. But I love having a collection of the best/most famous horror books too, so I could not resist buying it.

that's why he had a real name ' VLAD the Impaler', he will impale the turks whole body from their butt into their mouth and put it on the ground while the ottomans trying to hunt VLAD down.

Despite Dracula being the most famous vampire in history, most people don't really know his debut story. They don't know about the Harkers, or Van Helsing, or Lucy, or her boyfriends, and they're the ones who actually are the main characters of the story.
For an adaptation that does all of these characters justice, I'd highly recommend the audio drama Re:Dracula, which tells the story chronologically and is adapted straight from the book. The casting is perfect, they do such a good job bringing the story to life!

what???.....Bram stoker as kid was in bed and his mother told him stories of outbreak of cholerae and Mass graves and people being buried alive........😮😮😮
Dracula was the quintisential movie star/celebrity vampire. The only one that I can think of that comes close to making the same impact would be Lestat and he still falls short. It wasn't just him having a novel at his back to generate the fame but the character himself was and still is- one of the most fascinating ever created. Vampires are immortal but Dracula is eternal.
Mary Shellys Frankenstein is huge too. Universal made Frankenstein starring Boris Karloff and that too was a success which spawned the hundreds of other movies.
Jure Grando Alilović (1579-1656) was probably the first real person described as a vampire in historical records, he was from Croatia's region of Istria
For more reference of moder vampires and what inspired them. I recommend *The Bride of Corinth* . A german poem from Goethe that inspired both Carmila and Dracula. Not so much for *The Vampire which is a continuation of Gordon Byron shor tales, but the poem is one of the earliest takes on moderm vampires.
Dracula is a fictional character, he may come from wherever the author wants him to come. Stoker was not bad informed, he did read about Vlad the Impaler, and used his story as background, but he chose to place him in Transylvania so that he would make a whole backstory that Dracula was descended of the ruthless Attila the Hun through the Székelys. None of this makes sense in real life, but he was not interested in getting the facts right, he wanted to create a work of fiction which would scare the shit out of people. So saying that the book was misunderstood, or that Stoker was bad informed makes no real sense, since Stoker did not want to write history, he wanted to create mythology.
"Vampir" is Serbian word distributed through Europe by Austrian Doctors who investigated first historical case of vampir in Serbia,Book doesn't have anything with real history,Romania is connected with vampires only because of Dracula book that is not Historical document but fantasy novel. Fun fact: The "vampire" the Austrian doctor was supposed to exam was Sava Savanovic, a local celebrity in a Serbian village, who everybody feared. He disproved it and explained the case to Austrians, but the Serbs remained firm in the belief that Sava rises every month. His mill (the mill is an ominous symbol in Serbian folklore on its own) is still avoided by the villagers to this day. It is also a tourist attraction, by day of course
It should be noted that while the OG Dracula resembled Vlad Tepesh basically in name only, later adaptations very much introduced elements of "The Dragon's Son" into the general lore.
I heard that there was a king in 15th-16th century, who titled himself Dracul, meaning king in a way. He had a son who was named Dracula, and he suffered many gruesome experiences like seeing his brother being slaughtered. Dracula obviously became king and he killed many people and many say he had a "thirst" for blood. Eventually it adapted to other countries.
No words about strigoi ??? WTF ! No words about DRACULA NOVEL as a propaganda by the austro-hungarian ? In Romanian mythology, strigoi (English: striga, poltergeist)[1] are the troubled spirits of the dead rising from the grave. Some strigoi can be living people with certain magical properties. Some of the properties of the strigoi include: the ability to transform into an animal, invisibility, and the propensity to drain the vitality of victims via blood loss. Strigoi are also known as vampires.

The video is only six minutes. Bram Stoker was Anglo-Irish, so I don’t see how Dracula could be Austro-Hungarian propaganda. He never even went to Romania. One can not discuss all vampire folklore in six minutes.
Surprisingly, with at least a dozen adaptations, only one matches Dracula's appearance, including his mustache and that's the 1970 version by Jesus Franco, starring Christopher Lee as Dracula, outside of the Hammer Horror franchise.
I remember Dacre Stoker (Bram Stoker's great-grandnephew) kept telling us at his booksigning a year ago that he was 99.9% convinced that Bram Stoker's "mysterious illness" was in fact asthma, because he has it, his son has it, and Bram Stoker's great-grandson has it. It ran in his family.
It's more accurate to say that if you think of a Vampire you are most likely thinking of something that was inspired (directly or indirectly) by Dracula. With only a few exceptions.

You forgot to mention that Dracula is a public domain novel, meaning anyone can make their own adaptation of it.
John McDonald I'm not understanding how telling that Is neccessary.
Because Dracula's fame came from the fact that anyone can make their own adaptation of it. That's why there's so many versions of him in media.
You do have a good point, and I do think that it would be important to mention that in the video (considering that Florence Stoker is dead and Bram Stoker's great grand-nephew Dacre Stoker was unable to keep creative control of the property for very long).

Without them, I don't think Dracula would have the fame he now has today, and thus would we not have Christopher Lee and Gary Oldman to carry the torch.

Lmao as a romanian even i didn't thought about that

he has son and his name is Travor

the turks wanted to take over romania, and vlad (dracula) fought viciously to attempt to protect christianity and end the turks. without him, it is likely much more of europe would have been taken over by the ottoman
that's why he had a real name ' VLAD the Impaler', he will impale the turks whole body from their butt into their mouth and put it on the ground while the ottomans trying to hunt VLAD down.

Me: "Mrs. Stoker, how many similarities to your late husband's book Dracula does it take for you to win a lawsuit?"
Mrs. Stoker: "SIXTEEN!"
Dracula was the quintisential movie star/celebrity vampire. The only one that I can think of that comes close to making the same impact would be Lestat and he still falls short. It wasn't just him having a novel at his back to generate the fame but the character himself was and still is- one of the most fascinating ever created.
Vampires are immortal but Dracula is eternal.
Mary Shellys Frankenstein is huge too. Universal made Frankenstein starring Boris Karloff and that too was a success which spawned the hundreds of other movies.
This narrator gives me ASMR. More of him, please...
I don't know man. I only thought dracula was another name for vampire-😭
Same 😭😭😭
I thought that too for some time when I was younger lol
For many years I thought the same 😂

where in serbia do you live ana
Jure Grando Alilović (1579-1656) was probably the first real person described as a vampire in historical records, he was from Croatia's region of Istria
For more reference of moder vampires and what inspired them. I recommend *The Bride of Corinth* . A german poem from Goethe that inspired both Carmila and Dracula. Not so much for *The Vampire which is a continuation of Gordon Byron shor tales, but the poem is one of the earliest takes on moderm vampires.
Last time i came this early America was still a colony.
And you weren't a weeb fishing for likes back then.
I thought you meant something else by came early XD

Fun fact: The book was a whole misunderstanding .Vlad Țepeş actually comes from Walachya.
Bram Stoker was bad informed.
But all people know that Dracula comes from Transylvania. All mass-media promovate this lie.
And then...Wallahia and Transylvania are in Romania.
Dracula is a fictional character, he may come from wherever the author wants him to come. Stoker was not bad informed, he did read about Vlad the Impaler, and used his story as background, but he chose to place him in Transylvania so that he would make a whole backstory that Dracula was descended of the ruthless Attila the Hun through the Székelys. None of this makes sense in real life, but he was not interested in getting the facts right, he wanted to create a work of fiction which would scare the shit out of people. So saying that the book was misunderstood, or that Stoker was bad informed makes no real sense, since Stoker did not want to write history, he wanted to create mythology.

Short answer: Dracula was curious of the stone Mask and that when he wore it and spilled it with blood he became a Vampire

Okay, but does he obtain a punchy ghost that can stop time?

We Serbs have taken a lot words from English, but we gave them vampire, so we are eaven. 😉
Romania actually gave vampiers.
"Vampir" is Serbian word distributed through Europe by Austrian Doctors who investigated first historical case of vampir in Serbia,Book doesn't have anything with real history,Romania is connected with vampires only because of Dracula book that is not Historical document but fantasy novel.
Fun fact: The "vampire" the Austrian doctor was supposed to exam was Sava Savanovic, a local celebrity in a Serbian village, who everybody feared. He disproved it and explained the case to Austrians, but the Serbs remained firm in the belief that Sava rises every month. His mill (the mill is an ominous symbol in Serbian folklore on its own) is still avoided by the villagers to this day. It is also a tourist attraction, by day of course
dracular???? hi there greetings th-cam.com/video/hk7Bksr1_88/w-d-xo.html
It should be noted that while the OG Dracula resembled Vlad Tepesh basically in name only, later adaptations very much introduced elements of "The Dragon's Son" into the general lore.
1:47 the map looks like a heels haha 😂😂
What is the name of the music between 2:29-3:28 PLEASE?!
Dracula has been inspired from stories of Vlad the impaler and Lady Elizabeth Bathory also known as Blood Countess.
I think 1897 Dracula By Bram Stoker is the most celebrated tale about vampires.
A lot of movies are based on this masterpiece.

I heard that there was a king in 15th-16th century, who titled himself Dracul, meaning king in a way. He had a son who was named Dracula, and he suffered many gruesome experiences like seeing his brother being slaughtered. Dracula obviously became king and he killed many people and many say he had a "thirst" for blood. Eventually it adapted to other countries.
You mean Vlad Dracul I(king) and his son Vlad Drácula II "The empalator" (count).

Ted Ed this my first time on your channel but im enjoying your stories
No words about strigoi ??? WTF ! No words about DRACULA NOVEL as a propaganda by the austro-hungarian ? In Romanian mythology, strigoi (English: striga, poltergeist)[1]
are the troubled spirits of the dead rising from the grave. Some
strigoi can be living people with certain magical properties. Some of
the properties of the strigoi include: the ability to transform into an animal, invisibility, and the propensity to drain the vitality of victims via blood loss. Strigoi are also known as vampires.
strigoi are more like zombie creatures, not vampires. In romania we don t have classic vampires.
"Vampir" is Serbian word distributed through Europe by Austrian Doctors who investigated first historical case of vampir in Serbia,Book doesn't have anything with real history,Romania is connected with vampires only because of Dracula book that is not Historical document but fantasy novel.
Fun fact: The "vampire" the Austrian doctor was supposed to exam was Sava Savanovic, a local celebrity in a Serbian village, who everybody feared.

The video is only six minutes. Bram Stoker was Anglo-Irish, so I don’t see how Dracula could be Austro-Hungarian propaganda. He never even went to Romania. One can not discuss all vampire folklore in six minutes.
Surprisingly, with at least a dozen adaptations, only one matches Dracula's appearance, including his mustache and that's the 1970 version by Jesus Franco, starring Christopher Lee as Dracula, outside of the Hammer Horror franchise.
VAmpires originated from Serbia and Vampir is a serbian word that spread trough the world :P
Fenectio slavic, you mean. in many slavic languages, its also "vampir"
Jedwig lamb yes but first it beggan in serbia with our vampires one of the most popular is Sava Sevanovic
then it quickly spread trough rest of europe

Your voice was very easy and entertaining to listen to. As Well a the imagery. Fantastic video
How cool it would have been if in the end, Dracula woke up and jump scare us hahaha
Always thought Bram Stokers book was a let down, nice to see I have history on my side. Sheridan Le Fanus Carmilla is a must read however:)
Because all popular things are good and all good things become popular.
I remember Dacre Stoker (Bram Stoker's great-grandnephew) kept telling us at his booksigning a year ago that he was 99.9% convinced that Bram Stoker's "mysterious illness" was in fact asthma, because he has it, his son has it, and Bram Stoker's great-grandson has it. It ran in his family.
I am a real vampire
Yeah he told me this story a few years ago and it's definitely the best argument that's ever been made about his illness.
Every time you think of a Vampire.....you think of Count Dracula.
nice try but nope
hi there greetings th-cam.com/video/hk7Bksr1_88/w-d-xo.html dracular????
It's more accurate to say that if you think of a Vampire you are most likely thinking of something that was inspired (directly or indirectly) by Dracula.
With only a few exceptions.
The Intro and voice of the narrator seemed so familiar and I finally remembered we always watch these videos in Social Studies.

By the way Romania is not slavic!
Nowhere in the video did they claim that. They just said that the modern interpretations of vampires originated among the Slavs.
at that time its was a little!
Sunt romn si 40% romni stiu rusa
Word "vampire" is only serbian word in all main global languages

Sorry to say this (not really) but Dio will never achieve anything close to Dracula's level of fame.
You always have to love Ted-Ed it's a learning fun channel
So glad u mentioned Serbia lot of people just dump the fact that "vampir" is a serbian word. Also greetings from Serbia~💕
