Dracula

Dracula

Dracula was a famous vampire who visited Sunnydale in search of Buffy. He had the ability to change his shape: we saw him take the form of a bat, a wolf and some mist in his only appearance in Buffy (Buffy vs Dracula). He had a strong hypnotic effect on his victims, who he wanted to feel a connection with. Buffy allowed him to drink from her. She eventually managed to overcome her feelings and tried to kill the vampire, though he was able to avoid being staked by turning into mist.
Dracula is probably the most famous vampire in literature and film. Bram Stoker’s novel Dracula was written in 1897. There are many similarities between the novel and the Buffy Dracula. The three sisters whom Giles encounters appear in the book, and Dracula has the ability to enthral mortals (here it is Xander receiving the treatment). In the novel the character Renfield was enthralled by the vampire, and he ate flies and spiders, just as Xander does in the episode.

      that it not entierly ture as buffy did staked him and he did dust. He came back to life and buffy staked him again where he again came back as mist and buffy stated that she was still there and he floted off as mist. If u read the history of Vlad the Impailer aka Dracula He was damnned to wonder the earth forever so it is likely that Dracula cannot be killed. also my theroy is that Draculars powers and his differnt apperance fom normal vamps is that he became a vampire thou a curse and not sired.

      he’d probably stay dusty until he knew buffy wasn’t the slayer any more then go back to his county ways.

      I wish there was a spin off of spike and dracula so we could find out why he owes spike eleven quid
