Dracula the evil protagonist - By: Jamie Hanson

Bram stoker wrote Dracula during Victorian age. It is a fantasy novel, which vividly describes the function of vampires, and is a symbolic indication of that age. Count Dracula, even today, remains a distinctive character and reading the novel makes one shiver in horror. The novel is not a usual writing but written in the shape of letters, journals and diary depictions by Jonathan Harker, a first time solicitor, who visited the castle to resolve a deal in London for Count Dracula.

During those time women had two choices- to be a virgin or a mother. Harker vividly describes the women's sexual violence and their voluptuousness from his experience in Castle. Count Dracula is century's old vampire, depicted as a nobleman, stays in an old castle- in the Carpathian Mountains near Borgo Pass. He has been buried in the castle along with three of his female vampires. The nobleman figure of the character hides all his evil intention and black art from the innocent people.

The mysterious character had the attitude to overcome the world. As the history spells, he was the son of Vlad Dracul and the existence backs to 1436-1447.

The name ultimately distorted as Dracula. When he died, his body was perfumed and replaced to the Turkish Sultan. The books depicted him as a tyrant, for his historical behavior. But why? Thepsychological factor reflects on the Victorian age cruelty and integration of neglect of female sex that prevailed in Victorian age.

Many critics opine that Dracula is not a prince and a Transylvania Count residing in the mysterious castle. This is the place where he lured commonly women victims and drink their blood from the neck for supporters. The novel is scary and horrific.

The castle and the place has become a tourist attraction. History speaks differently. The name given to him after the carnage and ruthlessness he showed in the battles. The history speaks that his pet name then was "Dracul". Moreover, the implication is the name understood as evil, dragon or devil. Many critics have opined the psychoanalytic prospect of Dracula Character in various ways.
