CHARACTERS - DRACULA
Dracula
Voiced By: Peter Stormare
First Appearance: The Batman vs. Dracula
Position: Dead
Bio:A murderous creature who resided in Transylvania, Count Dracula
was killed while sleeping in his coffin one night by the villagers
in the town. Driving a stake through his heart, Dracula perished.
His body was shipped far away from Transylvania and buried in Gotham
Cemetery. His corpse and heart shriveled up, but the ability for him
to come back was always there, if someone gave him just a single
drop of blood.
The blood that revived Dracula came from The Penguin. Accidentally
cutting himself on his umbrella knife, Penguin dripped his blood
onto Dracula’s shriveled corpse. The blood hit the heart and
Dracula’s body immediately began to regenerate. After sucking the
blood from a nearby cemetery guard, Dracula recruited Penguin to be
his “tomb keeper” while he slept during the day. Penguin resisted at
first, but after being put under Dracula’s mind control, he was
forced to accept.
Dracula became infatuated with the man known as ‘The Batman.’
Thinking that his legacy had gone on long after his death, Dracula
eventually confronted The Batman and asked him to join his side to
take over Gotham City. The Batman refused and Dracula had nearly
killed The Batman before the sun came up and started to burn
Dracula’s skin.
Dracula also became obsessed with bringing his dead wife back from
the dead. Using the body and life force from Gotham City star
reporter Vicki Vale, Dracula nearly succeeded in bringing back his
dead wife with her cremated remains. The Batman intervened after
defeating Dracula’s minions, known as the “Lost Ones” and
interrupted the process, bringing the life back into Vicki and
allowing her to escape from Dracula’s clutches.
Dracula had a final showdown with The Batman, which eventually led
them to the Batcave. After being nearly killed and Alfred knocked
out, The Batman was able to turn on his prototype device that stored
energy from the sun. Dracula was caught in the beam of light and his
flesh and blood was burned. The Batman delivered a final blow to
Dracula that sent his bones scattering around the Batcave, ending
Dracula once and for all.
