Rašytojo Bram‘o Stoker‘io 1897 m. sukurto ir į pasaulį paleisto kraujasiurbio grafo Drakulos istoriją žino visi. Jis – pirmasis pasaulio vampyras ir šių padarų karalius. Tačiau žymiai mažiau žmonių žino, kad grafas Drakula turėjo realų prototipą. Manoma, kad Rumunijos princas Vladas Tepesas gimė 1431 metais, kalnuotoje Transilvanijos grafystėje. Musulmonų invazijos metais jo tėvas, Vladas II įstojo į krikščionišką „Drakono broliją“, kovojusią su atėjūnais. „Drakonas“ rumunų kalba yra „dracul“. Vlado II sūnus, princas Vladas III, buvo pavadintas „mažuoju drakonu“ – „dracula“. Pakeitęs soste tėvą, jaunasis princas pagarsėjo kaip nuožmus musulmonų skerdikas, nukautų savo priešų galvas susmeigdavęs ant kuolų – taip grafas Vladas III gavo ir „Smeigiko“ pravardę. Kruvini jo žygdarbiai ginant tėvynę tapo įkvėpimu B. Stoker‘iui sukuriant nemirtingą grafo Drakulos paveikslą.
