Who Was Dracula? Bram Stoker's Trail Of Blood
Jim Steinmeyer on ‘Who Was Dracula? Bram Stoker’s Trail Of Blood’
How did the poetry of Walt Whitman influence Bram Stoker’s Dracula and his appearance?
Other researchers have noticed the connections between Whitman’s appearance and Dracula’s appearance, and the mysterious, poetic way that Dracula speaks in the book. In fact, Stoker had been an admirer of Whitman and visited him when he came to America. The imagery of the tomb, the literary combination of passion and death, were all subjects that were found in Whitman’s poetry. It’s a shame that Whitman didn’t live to read the book, because he would have been fascinated by the result of Stoker’s creativity.
What did Bram Stoker’s boss actor Henry Irving have to do with the crafting of Dracula?
For a number of years it’s been a popular theory that Henry Irving was the inspiration for Dracula, but I think it’s more complicated than that. More than likely, Stoker had intended the character as a role for Henry Irving, who was England’s leading actor at the time. Irving wasn’t interested, and that’s a shame, as it probably would have changed the history of this character.
Could you tell us a bit about The Yorkshire village of Whitby which was known as a setting for Dracula and how it contributed to the story? Was this where Stoker wrote most of Dracula?
For people who haven’t read the novel, it’s a surprise that much of it takes place in Whitby, which is a pretty coastal village and port in Yorkshire. After he leaves Transylvania, this is where Dracula lands in England, where he first meets the characters in nocturnal visits. It’s the perfect transition between primitive eastern Europe and the London metropolis, where Dracula settles. It was also where Stoker composed much of the story, when he was on vacation.

Dracula was based on a character Vlad Dracul who existed in the 1500 / 1600′s in Transylvania. Dracul was royalty of the time and was a satanist.
Dracul was famed for the particular way he killed his enemies driving a steak through their rear end and planting that stake in the ground.
The british royal family are descended from Dracul and they are involved in depravity of Dracul’s time. The current wave of public people being involved in pedophilia in the UK is only the tip of the iceberg. Time to wake up! Looks like David Icke was right.
Only a David Icke cult follower would tie in pedophilia with Dracula. Depravity? No one committed a crime in Vlad’s kingdom due to his rule and from fear of his retribution. He was feared and loved and even the people now await his return. I’m sure Vlad would put all of British royalty on a pike as soon as spit on them. Icke is a sociopath.
