Dracula in popular culture The character of Count Dracula from the 1897 novel "Dracula" by Bram Stoker, has remained popular over the years, and many films have used the Count as a villain, while others have named him in their titles, such as "Dracula's Daughter", "The Brides of Dracula", and "Zoltan, Hound of Dracula".
