Buy Dracula's Infamous $80M Bran Castle & Live Like a Real Vampire

Count Dracula is the vampire to end all vampires (none of that glittering nonsense we've been faced with lately). He lived in a Transylvanian castle that was the very definition of Gothic and creepy, and the real life castle that is thought of having been its inspiration is now up for grabs. Bram Stoker's legendary character was definitely fiction, having been possibly based on Vlad the Impaler (the blood-thirsty Wallachian Prince in the 15th century), and his home is described as sitting on a "terrific precipice." Though Stoker never actually visited Romania, he was supposedly told tales of Bran Castle and since it is the only one in Romania that fits the written descriptions, people all over the world travel to the landmark to take a peek at Dracula's home. If you have any love for Dracula in your heart, or just want to buy one of the most famous and iconic castles in the world, the hilltop fortress has been put on the market for at least £47 million (around $80 million) by its archduke owner, Dominic von Habsburg.
