Vampire Nation Exploits Prince Charles’ Dracula Bloodline For Tourism

Prince Charles is heir to Dracula’s bloodline. That is, according to the Romanian National Tourist Office, who have been peddling a claim that the Prince Of Wales is the descendent of one-time medieval and quite mad Romanian ruler, Vlad The Impaler – the brutal figure who is wildly believed to be the inspiration for the folklore villain and blood-sucking vampire, Dracula.

The Romanian National Tourist Office is trumpeting the lineage in a brochure distributed at the World Travel Market, a leading industry event which opened in London on Monday.

The promotion has emerged a year after The (Dark) Prince Of Wales highlighted publicly-available information that he was, in fact, descended from Vlad Tepes on a British magazine television show. Charles can trace his lineage back through his great grandmother Queen Mary, the consort of George V, to Vlad IV, the half brother of the notorious, mustachioed ruler.

See how he used the word “stake” there? Very, very witty, Charles. Vereh, vereh witteh.

Charles also own property in the rural Transylvanian village of Viscri, which you – yes, you – can rent as a guest house during certain periods of the year.

When not recounting his blood-soaked lineage, Prince Charles enjoys speaking out of the side of his mouth, tending to his garden, and indulging his love for classical architecture.

  Is it fair to call Vlad mad? Yes, he impaled a lot of people. He also happened to be squeezed between the Turkish empire and the European theocracy. Part of the reason why he was anointed with the ‘Dragon’ title was due to his efforts to keep Turks out of Europe, though he was known to play both sides. He had several key forts built and faced off numerous invading armies. His reign ended around the time the first Spanish Inquisition started. Those were extremely brutal times.
  
  I think you are being a bit quick on common sentiment instead of actually considering the history of this guy.

  No Its not fair. Vlads army was out numbered at least 2 to 1 maybe 3 to 1. The Turks or the mongols killed Dracul . Raped Dracula as a child when he was in captivity for years . Think. About. It why was he so interested in the anus? Was there a reason that he became the impaler? Many reason I think. One who in their right mind would want to attack someone that would put a big stick up your anus if you lost the battle? Not me! Two He was raped in the butt in front of his enemies as a child, and Three , the sultan mehmet was ruthless man himself.
