Stoker je u Drakuli dao originalnu interpretaciju legende o vampirima jer je, iako je bio inspirisan narodnim pričama i drugim književnim ostvarenjima, svom junaku dao neodoljivu privlačnost i tako spojio strah od smrti sa žudnjom za besmrtnošću i ljubavi.
He produced an original interpretation of the legend of the vampire Dracula, as although he was inspired by folklore and other literary works, he gave his character an irresistible attraction, thus combining the fear of death with the thirst for immortality and love.
