Vampires Word Search
This puzzle gathers forty words for the undead: Dracula in his castle in Transylvania, Van Helsing with garlic, a crucifix and a wooden stake, the fangs and the cape, and the vampires who came before and after him, from Carmilla to Lestat.
Bram Stoker, an Irishman who managed the Lyceum Theatre in London, published Dracula in 1897. He found the name in a book he read on holiday in Whitby, the English harbor town where the Count later comes ashore. The real Vlad III of Wallachia used the name Dracula, son of the dragon, after his father's order of knights, and he was remembered as Vlad the Impaler.
Stoker was not first. John Polidori's The Vampyre, published in 1819, grew out of the same stormy summer by Lake Geneva that produced Frankenstein, and Sheridan Le Fanu's Carmilla appeared in 1872. In the novel, Dracula can walk by day and only loses his powers; the idea that sunlight destroys a vampire comes from the 1922 film Nosferatu, whose Count Orlok fades away at dawn.
