Although their names sound similar, the legendary Transylvania, once home to the infamous Vlad the Impaler - the inspiration behind Bram Stoker's Dracula - is NOT a part of the Pennsylvania, USA. This Transylvania is actually a central region in modern day Romania, in southeastern Europe. There is, however, a Transylvania Bible School in western Pennsylvania, although neither are related in any meaningful way.
"Sylvania" in both cases means "woods" in Latin. Transylvania means "beyond the woods" while Pennsylvania means "Penn's woods," named after William Penn.
