    Prince Vlad Tepes & Baroness Elizabeth Bathory. Must have been an interesting place to live in those times.

Indeed, I have read that the real Vlad kept himself idle in his prison cell by staking vermin. Charming man :-D

      But the idea was based on 'Vlad the Impaler' wasn't it? Paresh Solanki Today is the tomorrow you were worried about yesterday.

          There's a program on C5 (UK) about the worlds most evil people, and I think Vlad is on it next week. The article also mentioned Bram Stoker, so I thought they were related. Paresh Solanki Today is the tomorrow you were worried about yesterday.

                    That is correct, Dracula was based on Vlad Tepes. I think Vlad is an Rumanian nobility title, while Tepes is Hungarian meaning 'impaler'. Curiously, Vlad Tepes father was called Vlad Dracul due to his cruelty. That seem to have been a common trait among rulers of that region... /moliate

                            It´s the guy responsible for not let Dracula´s coffin fall in the wrong hands (Dracula 2000). In Bram Stroker´s book he is one of the guys who capture the vampire.
