 DRACULA THE VAMPIRE Dracula is a novel by Bram Stoker, published in 1897. Dracula was not the first piece of literature to depict vampires, but the novel has nonetheless come to dominate both popular and scholarly treatments of vampire fiction. Count Dracula is the first character to come to mind when people discuss vampires. Dracula succeeded by drawing together folklore, legend, vampire fiction and the conventions of the Gothic novel. Many described the novel as vampire literature's "centrepiece. It profoundly shaped the popular understanding of how vampires function, including their strengths, weaknesses, and other characteristics. Bats had been associated with vampires before Dracula as a result of the vampire bat's existence—But Stoker deepened the association by making Dracula able to transform into one. That was, in turn, quickly taken up by film studios looking for opportunities to use special effects. Some note that many of the Count's characteristics have been adopted by artists succeeding Stoker in depicting vampires, turning those fixtures into cliches. Aside from the Count's ability to transform, authors specifically highlights his hatred of garlic, sunlight, and crucifixes. Some future authors write critically of the Count's cultural omnipresence, noting that the character of Dracula has "seriously inhibited" discussions of the undead in Gothic fiction.
