Who is Dracula in the Bible?

Dracula is a fictional vampire character from Bram Stoker's 1897 novel and is not in the Bible, though the historical inspiration, Vlad the Impaler, was a 15th-century Christian prince known as "Son of the Dragon" (Dracula) for his role in the Order of the Dragon knightly order fighting the Ottomans, with Stoker weaving Christian themes and imagery into the story. While the Bible prohibits blood consumption (Leviticus 17:10-14), it doesn't mention vampires, and Stoker used biblical and Christian worldviews to create his legendary count, making Dracula a symbolic antagonist to Christian virtues.
