==Summary==
Count Dracula, or just Dracula, is the titular main antagonist of the Hammer series of Dracula films starting with the 1958 horror film Horror of Dracula.
He is loosely based on the character from the Bram Stoker novel. He is an evil vampire who preys on humans and rules the dead who is killed several times, but comes back to life again and again through various different circumstances from accidents to intentional incantations via black messes.
During the first seven movies the bloodthirsty Count was famously portrayed by the late Sir Christopher Lee who later had no further interest to reprise the part, leading to his replacement by he late British actor John Forbes-Robertson.
Christopher Lee's performance as Dracula is considered by many critics to be the best cinematic interpretation of the character, alongside Bela Lugosi's.
