Vlad III served as ruler of Wallachia three times. The first was in 1448 after his father was assassinated and his older brother blinded and buried alive in December of 1447. This reign lasted less than a year before he was exiled to live under the protection of his uncle in Moldavia. Vlad III would eventually reconquer Wallachia in 1456 and remained as voivode until 1462 when he was arrested while in Hungary seeking help in his war against the invading Ottomans, lead by his younger brother Radu. He returned after years of imprisonment and reclaimed the throne in November 1476, only to be assassinated in January 1477.

Nothing. The vampire rumours didn't start until Abraham Stoker made references between vampires and 'somebody that could be Vlad' in the book Dracula. Long after the original Vlad was dead.

The rumours were helped by the cruel form of capital punishment chosen by Vlad.
