How is Vlad the Impaler a vampire?

Vlad Tepes is not, nor was he ever, a vampire; Count Dracula was based on Vlad III much in the same way that Mary Shelley based Dr. Victor Frankenstein on the ancient Greek titan Prometheus. While Bram Stoker was researching for his novel Dracula, he read many accounts of Vlad's ruthless methods, most notable his eating amongst the freshly-impaled corpses of his enemies. This idea of feasting with the dead has never been proven as fact, as all references to these actions came from possible propaganda put forth by the Ottoman Turks. He was not a vampire and died in 1476 at the age of 45, ending his third reign as voivode of Wallachia.
