Dear WO'N: Dracula didn't come from Hungary.
"Bram Stoker penned his immortal classic, Dracula, he based his vampire villian on an actual
historical figure. Stoker's model was Vlad III Dracula (called Tepes, pronounced tse-pesh); a
fifteenth century viovode, or prince, of Wallachia of the princely House of Basarab. Wallachia is a
provence of Romania bordered to the north by Transylvania and Moldavia, to the east by the Black
Sea and to the south by Bulgaria. "
