VLAD THE IMPALER MAN WHO WAS DRACULA TP

(W) Sid Jacobson (A) Ernie Colon The Dracula myth has sparked a century of endlessly entertaining creepy tales. The fictional character, originally penned by Bram Stoker, was inspired by a real-life fiend - Prince Vlad Dracul, the 15th-century ruler of Wallachia, a man infamous for massacring and impaling his enemies. Vlad the Impaler tells the ghastly prince's life story from his seizure as a boy by the Turkish Sultan, to his love life, to his maniacal attempts to retain power regardless of whose throat he must slit.
