He wasn't a geek, though. When the Turks invaded his nation of Walakia, he massacred all the people in his capital and burned it to the ground, putting the dead on spikes. Suliman the Conquerer said "What can one do against such men" and left with his army. I think Dracula got an award from the pope for repulsing the turks.

He was the King of Dracul. And since he was the son of the first King of Dracul, he became Dracula. "A" meaning..you know..like baby. He hated it.

We're such geeks!

It was a title given to him by the king of Romania, which became his title.

The hungarians hold Attila the Hun as a folk hero, as well as Dracula.

Lol, he was a conqueror. Bad or good doesn't apply, because it always depends on the perspective.

"A man's called a traitor, or liberator. A rich man is a thief, or philanthropist. Is one a crusader, or ruthless invader? It's all in which label he's able to persist. There are precious few at ease with moral ambiguities, so we act as though they don't exist!"
