Today in 1847, Irishman Bram Stoker, famous for writing Dracula, was born in Dublin. - Did you know…The Irish word, Drochfhola, pronounced Drock-ola means bad blood? - A northern Irish folk tale is the likely inspiration for Dracula! The story goes that an evil tyrant, Abhartach, was killed. He was buried standing up and the next day, he was found alive & needed to drink blood to stay alive. Finally he was killed by a wooden sword through his heart & was buried upside down, so he would not rise to life again.
