actually, this song is about the REAL dracula, Vlad tepes dracula (tepes meaning"the impaler") he is not, however, a vampire but was notorius for arround 40 000 killings in his six year reing over ancient romania, he was given the title tepes after impaling 20 000 turkish soldiers high on pikes stuck into the ground when he was chased out of his kingdom by some sultan guy, after seeing this the sultan called off the attack (after that, wouldnt anyone?)

anyways more to the point. vlad did all this in secrecy and his belived mistress found out he wanted to kill her father and became upset, after a few more years of killings she finally committed suicide by hurling herself over the castle wall and vlad swore to have her back, some how. this is a very true story and believe it or not vlad was a very respected man and people ACTUALLY loved this man, he kept order in their small town.

wicked song..hope you enjoy the history of the man who inspired bram stokers Dracula
