Count Dracula was born in Sighisoara in Romania (You cannot find this in the book, but in the novel the Count is the same person as Vlad III, the real Dracula, and he was born in Sighisoara). Now he has got a castle in the Carpathians and three houses in and around London. Carfax Abbey for example.

Vlad Cepeš is a real historical person, ruler from Romania who lived in the 15th century. Bram Stoker based his Dracula novel on his life.
Count Dracula sometimes tells about his past as a Romanian prince (in the novel it is a count), so you can find out that he was a human (even a real person!) named Vlad Tepes (also Vlad the Impaler, Vlad Dracula).
He was a real person. He worked with Bram Stoker, and supposedly gave Stoker his journal, which is what the novel Dracula is based from. For more information, read "The Annotated Dracula" by Leslie S. Klinger. He goes into far more detail.
No, Van Helsing was not a real person. Van Helsing is a fictional character written for the book Dracula. The character can also been seen in movies.
There is abundant folklore about Dracula but I have never heard of a person named Dracula Folklore.
Dracula was not really invented. Bram Stoker, the author of the novel, was inspired by a real person named Vlad III (also Vlad Tepes or Vlad Draculea). Vlad Tepes (1431-1476) was a prince from Walachia. The novel "Dracula" by Bram Stoker was first published on 18th May 1897.
In some adaptations of the Dracula story, such as the 1931 film "Dracula's Daughter," Dracula is portrayed as having a daughter rather than a son. This daughter is typically named Countess Marya Zaleska.

It's not actually his castle, there is no such thing as "Dracula's Castle" because he wasn't real. When people visit Transylvania, they mistake Dracula's castle as Bram Stoker's.
