Vlad Ţepeş (Vlad III the Impaler), ruler of Wallachia, is considered a Romanian hero because Vlad was a strong fighter against the Turks invaders, German merchant smugglers, thieves, etc. Vlad was severe but correct and exceptionally patriot and courageous.

Dracula and the other stories for children are only legends for naive tourists.

Dracula was known as "Vlad the Impaler" because he had the habit during his reign as prince while living to impale his enemies or wrong doers upon large stakes. He impaled thousands of people, thus giving him the name "the impaler". "Vlad" was his first name.
