Dedicated followers of Dracula have gathered for their annual meeting in Romania to visit graveyards, explore the world's fascination with the
vampire legend and exchange views on the occult.
Bran Castle, temporary home of Vlad the Impaler
Devotees of the aristocratic 15th century count Vlad Tepes, known as the Impaler, have flocked to the town of Sighisoara in central Romania's
Transylvania region. The town is supposedly the birthplace of the count, who inspired the Dracula legend which was later turned into a novel by
Irish-born English author Bram Stoker in 1897.
