Actually, it is known that he is buried in Kitzingen, Germany, right across from "The Leaning Tower" (not of Pisa). The tower has a golden ball on the very top of it and it is heard that Dracula's heart lays inside of it. The tower is made of mortar, a type of cement. During the time they were building it (sometime in the 1200's) there was a drought, and they had to use wine as the mix. Wine is not as strong as water and it caused the tower to lean. It just so happens, that if you follow the path of the tower, the golden ball is facing directly towards his grave. The cemetery was then named after him, "The Grave of Dracula". It is said that eventually the tower will fall and the golden ball will fall onto his grave and break open, releasing his heart and returning him to life.

When will this present darkness be a movie?
In all honesty, I am praying that there will be a Beautiful Darkness movie! But they will have to seriously alter the storyline to make it happen! Which makes me a little apprehensive about it if they do decide to make it. I mean, in the movie Lena already Claimed herself for both the Light and Dark, and that doesn't happen until the Seventeenth Moon at the end of Beautiful Darkness. So how are they going to come up with a new storyline for that? Also, Larkin wasn't Dark in the movie, yet he is way past the point of "coming out" in Beautiful Darkness; he even dies along with Twyla in Beautiful Darkness as involuntary sacrifice from either side for when Lena Claimed herself as Light and Dark. So, if they do make a Beautiful Darkness movie, I hope they think real long and hard about how they are going to do it...

Who created the story of Dracula?
The legend of the vampire ´Count Dracula´ originated in Bram Stoker's 1897 horror novel "Dracula", but he was inspired by a real person.
This real person was called Vlad III, Vlad Țepeș or Vlad Drăculea. He was born in 1431. It is most likely that he was born in Sighisoara, Transylvania, but it is also possible that he was born in Nuremberg because his father, Vlad II. Dracul, often went there at that time, where joined Sigismund II of Luxembourg's Order of the Dragon. It is possible that his pregnant wife, Princess Cneajna of Moldavia, accompanished him. Vlad III himself is said to have joined the order at the age of 5.
Being a member in this order, Vlad II got the name ´Dracul´, which is most likely to come from the Latin word ´drago´ (dragon). His son got the name
´Drăculea´, which means "son of the dragon".
Vlad II Dracul gave Vlad III and his brother Radu, his two youngest sons, to the Ottoman Sultan Murad II, who imprisoned them at Egrigöz fortress. These years had a huge influence on Vlad III's personality; for example, he made his first real experience with violence there.
In 1447, Vlad II Dracul was murdered.
Vlad Drăculea led many fights against the Ottoman Empire. He got the name ´Țepeș´, which means "impaler", because of his gruesome strategy: He impaled thousands of people. Most of them were enemies, but he also killed some of his own people this way.
Vlad III died at the end of 1476 during a fight against the Ottomans. It is most likely that he was beheaded by one of his own soldiers. He is said to be buried in Snagov, but scientists have not found his grave yet.
