Vladimir Dracula

"You Are The Chosen One!"

- The Grand High Vampire

Vladimir Dominus Imperita Electus "Vlad" Dracula is a fictional character from the BBC television series Young Dracula. He is the main character and son of Count Dracula. He has appeared in every episode and is played by Gerran Howell.

Profile

Vladimir "Vlad" Dracula is the Count's "son and heir" and it is around him, mainly, that the series revolves. Unlike his sister Ingrid, Vlad would much prefer to be a normal child than a vampire, although he does occasionally show elements of his father's wit and ability to manipulate people. He finds friendship with outcasts Robin and Chloe Branaugh as well as his sarcastic stuffed wolf, Zoltan. He is very exasperated by his father's complete ignorance of human life.

Moving to Britain

Count Dracula, along with Vlad and his sister Ingrid, moved to Stokely in the United Kingdom from Transylvania to avoid angry peasant mobs. They then moved into a partly-ruined castle at the top of a hill, that Vlad stated he bought off the internet.

As part of his dream to become normal, Vlad joined various different organisations, namely Stokely Grammar School, as well as the rugby team, chess club and Scouts.

The Chosen One

It is revealed in the episode Insomnia in the second series that Vlad is 'the chosen one' - destined to become the Grand High Vampire and lead the vampires out of hiding.
