Searching for a way out of the castle one night, he falls under the spell of three ...

| | | | | Richard Roxburgh: Encyclopedia II - Dracula - Historical connections Although Dracula is a work of fiction, it does contain some historical references. The historical connections with the novel, how much Stoker really knew about the history, is a matter of conjecture and debate.
Following the publication of In Search of Dracula by Radu Florescu and Raymond McNally in 1972 the supposed connections between the historical Vlad III Dracula and Bram Stoker's fictional Dracula attracted popular attention. During the six year reign of Vlad III (1456–1462), "Vlad the Impaler" is estimated to ha ...

| | | | | Richard Roxburgh: Encyclopedia II - Dracula - Popular culture Like Frankenstein, Dracula has inspired many literary tributes or parodies, including Stephen King's Salem's Lot, Kim Newman's Anno Dracula, Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire, Elizabeth Kostova's The Historian, Fred Saberhagen's The Dracula Tape, Wendy Swanscombe's erotic parody Vamp, and Dan Simmons's Children of the Night.

| | | | | | | Richard Roxburgh: Encyclopedia II - Dracula - Dracula in Romania After the death of Nicolae Ceauşescu, a tourist industry sprung up in Transylvania (and, to a lesser extent, in Wallachia). However, Romanians have mixed feelings about linking one of their national heroes and the vampire monster.
Historical places connected to Vlad Ţepeş are publicised under a Dracula theme catering largely, but not entirely, to foreign markets.

| | | | | Richard Roxburgh: Encyclopedia II - The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen - Overview The story takes place in 1898 in a fictional world where all of the characters and events from Victorian era adventure literature actually existed. The world the characters inhabit is one far more technologically advanced than our own was in the same year. This setting allows Moore and O'Neill to insert 'in-jokes' and cameos from many of the great works of Victorian fiction, while also making contemporary references and jibes. (In issue 1, there is a half-finished bridge to link Britain and France, ...

| | | | | Richard Roxburgh: Encyclopedia II - Van Helsing - Other media Sommers expanded the story of Van Helsing in two direct spin-offs. The animated prequel titled Van Helsing: The London Assignment, takes place before the main events of the film, focusing on Van Helsing's first mission to try to end a Jack-the-Ripper-style murderer, who turns out to be Mr. Hyde, from terrorizing London. There was also a one-issue comic book titled Van Helsing: From Beneath the Rue Morgue, that follows Van Helsing on a self-contained adventure that occurs during the events of the film, just after the death of Je ...
