It was on that battlefield that he would lose his life, then his soul. Prince Vlad Tepes the III would come to be the greatest villain of all time, Dracula. His selfish lust for power led him to misery and suffering under the Devil's false promises. Dracula's death at the hand of a Texas Bowie Knife was a con. The movies, books, and stories of Dracula are but a glimpse into his life. It is only when he finally gives himself fully to the Devil's will that his suffering eases. The Devil pulls off the greatest con on the human race and the priests in Ethiopia are waiting. All will be revealed when vanity reaches a pinnacle of decadence. "The fact that you're skeptical about my identity is a testament to the Devil's con."

Download or read book Transylvanian Vampires written by Adriana Groza and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-03-12 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Authentic vampire tales exist in Transylvanian folklore--yet the Transylvanian vampire is nothing like the bloodthirsty count of Bram Stoker's imagination or the romantic hero of popular fiction. The Romanian tradition reflects the norms of peasant life and wisdom embedded in age-old communities. This book consists of 21 narratives developed from brief accounts recorded by local anthropologists and historians from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The goal is to capture the major themes found in the existing sources. The book also includes translations of 17 brief folk stories about Vlad Ţepeş, known as Dracula. Contrary to the prevailing fictive image, these stories portray Vlad as a wise although strict ruler and a proud defender of his country's autonomy. An introduction discusses the Transylvanian village and its rich folk traditions, making explicit the comparison to the historic and to the fictional Dracula.

But baby Joshua holds a link to an ancient clan and their legendary leader—Vlad Tsepes, the original Dracula – whose agents kidnap the child. Against impossible odds and vicious enemies– both human and vampire – Kate and her ally, Father Mike O'Rourke, steal into Romania to get her baby back.
