Lack of pictures

No pictures? Really?--Willerror 21:23, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There should be a picture of Bela's Dracula & Roxburgh's Dracula. With Roxburgh's Dracula there should also be a picture of his Hell Beast form. Son of Kong

Origin

To whoever reverted my addition of an "Origin" section, it wasn't about "Dracula in popular culture", it was about the various origins of the character that have been given in popular culture. Is that not relevant to this article?--Codenamecuckoo 21:14, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Expansion

Pitifully tiny article, on one of the great mythical characters! Nothing whatsoever on the real-life characters upon which he was based, and nothing expansive on the fictional character either. Have added expansion tag and called for reinforcements. Grunners 01:34, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There is more info on the characters upon which Dracula might have been based in the Dracula article. See also Dracula in popular culture. And just to say that though the article is small, just three months ago it didn't exist at all, and there were some editors who wanted to strangle it at birth! I grant it could be expanded: as long as that doesn't just mean witless padding or a relentlessly long plot summary of the novel (for which see Dracula). Colin4C 12:11, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Who deleted my section telling about his origins in Van Helsing? Son of Kong

Brides

A coupopopopopople of questions: How does Dracula make women his brides? It seems like he just bites their neck, but that is what he does to all of his victims. Any ideas?

Second: Who are all of the vampires in the ballroom scene? Thanks, Quinlanfan2 00:13, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You've missed someone

In the break down of the plot of Bram Stokers novel it lists the heros who head to Carefax Abbey, the list has missed off Lord Godalming.I would edit this myself but I am druid-like in my understand of computums. If someone could facilitate this it would be most appriciated

edit* I've worked it now and fixed it!! Hurrah for me

Rationale of this article

Just to repeat that this article is about the fictional character 'Count Dracula' who appears (along with other characters, most of whom also have their own seperate wikipedia articles) in the novel of the same name by Bram Stoker. Dracula (novel) has its own article. There is also a separate article: 'Dracula in popular culture' for later adaptations. Colin4C 10:09, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dracula base name article

A discussion that may be of interest to editors here is ongoing at Talk:Dracula (novel). -- JHunterJ 02:23, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bela, where are you?

The title explains it all. You have Christopher Lee here, but not Bela Lugosi? What a shame.
