By Melinda Caric on Oct 31, 2018 08:30 am
As soon as I saw Bran Castle, in the Transylvania region of Romania, I immediately knew why Bram Stoker chose it as the location for his 1897 masterpiece, “Dracula.” Perched atop a hill, with a sheer drop down all sides, it had an imposing silhouette that looked like the archetype of every spooky castle in ...
