Vlad is something of a national hero in Romania for preventing the expansion of the Ottoman Empire but he was (and is) notorious for the cruelty of the punishments he meted out -- his favorite method being impalement.
In Romania he is viewed very much as a Prince with a deep sense of justice.

Where did Dracula Vlad live?
"Count Dracula" was from Transylvania. The name comes from Vlad the Impaler, prince of Wallachia (now part of Romania). In modern Romanian, it means "son of the devil" but in Vlad's time it meant "son of the dragon." Vlad is something of a national hero in Romania for preventing the expansion of the Ottoman Empire but he was (and is) notorious for the cruelty of the punishments he meted out -- his favorite method being impalement. Bram Stoker borrowed the name for his famous vampire novel, "Dracula," but there is no evidence that the historic Dracula ever drank blood. Stoker toured Romania while gathering material for his novel and heard of Vlad in his travels. However, he demoted his character to the rank of count. The real-life Dracula was a prince.
