Dracula's Castle in Bran
Dracula's Castle in Bran

April 4, 2004

We got a bus to Bran to see the true tourist-trap that it is. The inside of Dracula’s castle is all original... from the 1700’s, what they don’t mention however is that the person Dracula is based on died in the 14 or 1500’s.

The person Dracula is based on is Vlad Tepes, who's real castle is very far away and most of it fell down a cliff, while the rest of it is hidden by a power plant.

I guess it makes sense that the castle of Vlad is as inaccurate as Dracula itself. I give the area credit for taking advantage of the misinformation though.
