LAST CALL FOR VAMPIRE VACATION! The Halloween Dracula Tour is set for October 27-November 3, and there are still a few openings for travelers. We also current;y have a solo male traveler who seeks a roommate, so if you want to join vampire and horror enthusiasts on the travel adventure of a lifetime which brings thrill-seeking travelers to Transylvania, don’t hesitate! Now is last call for monster mavens wishing to take the journey through the Romanian countryside following in the footsteps of Bram Stokers novel, Dracula. There is an equal portion of history, involving Vlad Tepes, plus the myth and mystery surrounding Dracula, and all the ways that Vlad inspired Dracula. The tour visits Snagov Island, where a secluded monastery contains Vlads coffin. Theres a visit to Vlads birthplace in the best-preserved medieval town in all of Europe, Sighisoara. This is the region of Transylvania where there were failed attempts to build a DraculaLand theme park. While there, the group also ventures into a haunted graveyard, takes part in a witch trial (a re-creation, that is) and also climbs the historic Clock Tower above the Torture Chamber and torture museum. The group explores the historic ruins of Vlads Poenari Castle, the true Castle Dracula, which is as breathtaking as the more tourist-visited Bran Castle, also on the itinerary. In one of the cities that the tour visits, Sibiu, sits the massive Evangelical Church built in 1300, containing the burial vaults in its crypt connected to both Dracula and the legend of Frankenstein. Ascending up Borgo Pass into the Carpethian Mountains, travelers follow the path of Jonathan Harker, the character described in the Dracula novel. The group has late-night parties along the way, but the highlight is unquestionably the gala annual Halloween masquerade ball in Dracula’s Castle, as travelers from all over the U.S., Canada and overseas experience what is the definitive costume celebration, in the dungeon room at Draculas Castle in Piatra Fantanele atop the Romanian alps. This costume gala is preceded by an outdoor bonfire with music by local gypsy musicians, followed by a multi-course meal, culminating with a gala monster mash costume extravaganza and dancing into the early morning hours. Every traveler gets a gift “swag bag” filled with vampire & horror paraphernalia bringing trick or treat goodies to a whole new level. Dracula Tour is the only fully-escorted, professionally guided vacation organized by fans for fans. The trip is open to all ages, and welcomes couples, families and solo travelers. There is both educational and entertainment value for anyone looking for an unusual week-long ghoulish getaway. Vampire fans, vampire slayers and perhaps even vampires are obviously all welcome, and all get along harmoniously.
