The prototypical anti-Christian symbol is the vampire, which legend purportedly began in Eastern Europe`s Wallachia with Prince Vlad Dracul (1431-76/7), who was known as `the impaler`, because of his impaling, on wooden stakes, victims after a battle. Although the legendary draco, Dracula, owes his name to Vlad Dracul in the novel Dracula (1897) by Bram Stoker, the premise of the vampire myth, subsequently perpetrated by novelists and movie makers, is that the vampire is killed by piercing his heart with a wooden stake, whereas impalation was rather the method employed by Vlad Dracul against his victims. Consequently, the legend of the real-life `vampire`, Dracul, contradicts the myth built in fiction, which is that it`s the vampire that`s impaled, whereas it was the vampire, Vlad Dracul of Wallachia, who was the impaler of victims.
