Legend
Vlad's history is shrouded in mystery and legend , and the truth is that nobody knows where the legend ends to leave room history.
Being not only historically, but also literary and folk prince was chosen by writer Bram Stoker as the hero of his novel appeared in 1897.De then, Dracula and Transylvania , the land that houses the mysterious castle filled with ghosts and vampires somewhere in the dark forests , became the subject of over 750 films, documentaries and short stories inspired by the Irish writer's novel .
It is said that Vlad's transformation into bloodthirsty Count Dracula is because , according to the custom at that time , the winner of a fight would satisfy their thirst by drinking the blood of the defeated .
Could it be that the truth about Dracula? Legend or history.

The second son was Vlad II - DRACULA , A at the end of the word " hell " as a way to establish affiliation - Dracula , the son of Dracul .
The nickname " Tepes " was assigned after his death in 1476 , because of the way he punished the Ottomans , pulling him impaled . Impaling was a cruel execution , the victim being stuck in a hair sharp , thick as a human arm . It is said that he liked Vlad mass executions , tips pars forming a kind of " forest " . To enjoy these " performances " Vlad used to organize barbecues in front of those who died in torment.
As a child, Vlad Tepes lived as a hostage of the Turks . While the family was murdered he was made aware that it torments endured . This seems to be the reason why so poisoned soul , prince got punished cutting , skinning, spanzurand , pulling Decapitating or impaled .

Cunocut for sadism , Vlad was both respected by his subjects for campaigns to fight the Turks. He was respected both as a fighter and as a prince who does not tolerate injustice , during the reign of bringing some monasteries . He was a hero worshiped and feared by his people.
Victor Hugo in " Legends Siecles " play the way Vlad Tepes army faced the Sultan Mehmet II coming to conquer the Romanian Country . Advancing to Targoviste , the soldiers of the Turkish army were terrified the view of the Impaler : houses burnt , scorched plains , and water fountains poisoned.
This culminated with the image but near the city walls which housed Vlad the Impaler : an enormous forest of bodies. From fear and terrified by the smell of corpses 20,000 Turkish prisoners stuck in Tepe , Muhammad officers withdrew recognizing ruler victory .
For Romanian prince Vlad Tepes stayed during which you could drink water from the Citadel Targoviste , with a solid gold goblet without anyone to steal ( historical sources confirm the existence of this cup which was used until the day that Vlad Tepes died ) .
Vlad 's death
Dracula 's death not much is known , there are several hypotheses. The most popular story is that he had been killed in battle against the Turks near Bucharest in December 1476 . Others argue that Wallachian boyars was killed during the battle .
What happen with the corpse of Vlad ? This is another mystery legends fabric , none of which could not be confirmed
Most historians believe that Vlad was buried near the altar of the Monastery Snagov monastery which is on an island in the middle of Lake Snagov, only now the boats . What is certain is that he was beheaded and taken to Constantinople , for the whole world to see that the rule of the Ottoman ruler was over really scary .

In 1931-32 , the archaeologist Dinu Rosetti, the order of the Romanian Academy , Snagov Monastery sought to discover the body of Vlad Dracula.
But I found only a few graves robbed inside the monastery, local legends saying that Vlad 's body had been buried at the entrance to the monastery. Nedand credence to this legend, the researcher digging and unearthed a tomb located in front of the altar . But the tomb was empty. Continuing to dig , found a pagan altar with the bones of slaughtered animals .
Giving a chance to legend , began to investigate the site of the entrance to the monastery , where he found the tomb had not been robbed , belonging , apparently, a nobleman . Clothing that covers the body belonged to a wealthy man looked like .
It was found a ring came from Nuremberg. However skeleton also had head and , as I said above , it is a fact that Vlad was beheaded .
Tomb of Vlad (assumed )
Snagov Monastery , however, has high humidity, which makes the majority of the remains of those buried here to break down very quickly. It is therefore very likely that Vlad 's body to be broken before it was started research for his discovery .
Certainly we can say that there was Dracula . As prince Vlad Tepes as the same evil vampire , remains a challenge for the fans , but the fact is that the vampire myth has gained ground ( mainly because the media ) in the face of history .
