For a mere 78 million dollars, Dracula's castle could be yours.
From YahooNews:
BUCHAREST, Romania - The Habsburg family said Wednesday that it wanted to sell a Transylvanian castle famous for its connections to the 15th century medieval ruler who inspired "Dracula" for 60 million euros, or $78 million, to the local authorities, an attorney said.
...
The community of Bran, where the fortress was built in the 14th century to help stave off invasion, gave it to Ileana's mother, Queen Marie, in 1920 to thank her for her efforts in unifying the country. It was briefly associated with Prince "Vlad the Impaler," whose cruelty inspired novelist Bram Stoker's creation, the vampire Count Dracula. History says he spent one night there.
Wow that's awesome. XD
Although, even though I'd love to visit it, I don't know if I'd ever want to stay there. Or even own it. Kind of creepy, considering how brutal Vlad really WAS.
Gosh I want to see it, though.
