		In the Middle Ages, when Transylvania was at the perimeter of the Hungarian Kingdom, many peoples settled there to fortify the land against invasions from the east; in the Renaissance, many other peoples found in Transylvania a fertile home rich in resources and safe from the upheavals and persecutions elsewhere in Europe.
		By the seventeenth century, Transylvania was inhabited by Hungarians, Romanians, Germans, Jews, Gypsies and many smaller ethnic groups; and although it was by turns a part of the Hungarian, Ottoman, Hapsburg, and Austro-Hungarian empires as well as an independent principality, its rulers were never able to give equal political power to all its peoples.
		Ironically, it was probably not its vampire lore but the notorious instability of Transylvania in the Victorian era that prompted Bram Stoker to send his protagonist there: in the twilight days of the British Empire, the ethnic turmoil embodied in Count Dracula may well have been more horrifying than any of his unusual appetites.

	Vampire Fiction
		The level of historical research is astounding, many of the characters, including Saint-Germain and one of his alta-egos, Ragoczy are based on actual people and the Hotel Transylvania still exists in Paris.
		To me, the hallmark of great fiction is the ability to convey emotion, and during these books we are struck with wonder and revulsion, beauty and horror.
		Its success lies in the richness of its narrative, as we move from the decadence of eighteenth century Paris to the heights of Rock stardom, and take a few detours in-between, to Ancient Egypt and old New Orleans.

	JIMMY AKIN.ORG: Fiction
		Lovecraft felt strongly that a weird fiction story should be thoroughly grounded in reality and contain only a single supernatural element—the “wonder” at the heart of the story.
		Your fiction is going to reflect what you actually believe and don't believe, and it'd be a mistake for Rowling, for example, to vilify magic just because people think it ought to be vilified.
		Each is a major landmark in vampire fiction (which is why I read them; the genre doesn't have a lot of native appeal to me, but I'm not opposed to reading the classics in it).
