VLAD DRACUL

Who doesn’t love Werewolves, Ghouls, Goblins, Spooks and Monsters? And in today’s culture probably the most favorite creature of the unliving are those blood-sucking atrocities known as Vampires.
And we can all be thankful to Bram Stoker and his gothic masterpiece Dracula for the creation of the Vampire legend. From his pen sprang the character Count Dracula who would leave his coffin at sundown to feed upon the innocent blood of the living. Many historians believe that Bram Stoker’s story was actually based upon a real life prince named Vlad Dracul III who ruled a portion of Romania during the 15th Century. The history of Vlad Dracul is surrounded by intrigue, myths, contradictions and death.
POE'S WORLD DARK CHARLESTON
Enter Poe's World if you dare. While stationed at Fort Moultrie in Charleston, South Carolina Poe writes the legendary short story titled Goldbug's Island. In the story Poe uses a code that if deciphered is supposed to lead Captain's Kid's Treasure. 
Or will it?  Perhaps the code was a ruse used by Poe to uncover something more sinister than hidden treasure. 
Perhaps the code leads to a parallel universe. A world being created by Poe's macabre imagination.
