“Before 1989, even Ceausescu was turned into a vampire, Dracula’s myth being used even in political life. At the same time, at that time, the National Tourist Office turned Dracula’s myth into a tourist brand, then an aggressive marketing campaign was carried out, “said Nicolae Pepene, the historian being the author of the” Dracula, travel agent ” which presents a spectacular aspect of both the recent Romanian historiography and the history of Romanian tourism – the commercial valorization by the Romanian communist authorities of the Dracula trade myth and the “dispute” between the literary character created by Bram Stoker and the historical character Vlad Ţepeş.
