The novel presents Jonathan Harker, a young London lawyer, who travels to Transylvania to help a rich nobleman, Count Dracula, purchase an estate in England. Dracula wants to emigrate to England, and wants Harker to help him arrange the legal details. At first, the young Harker is impressed by Dracula s politeness, but is soon creeped-out by the Count s strange ability to communicate with wolves and by the lack of servants in the Count s huge castle. Soon after, Harker realizes that he is actually a prisoner in the castle. When, he wrote the novel, Bran Stocker found as it is said that Vlad is buried.

Nowadays, this legend make more and more tourists travel to Romania in search of Dracula. There are several places that are mentioned in the book that they want to visit and some others that became popular later on.
