15th century poltitcs and society in the area of Romania
by Resident on 03-06-2008 at 12:49 PM
It occurred to me that everyone could get more into the costume making process if they knew more about Dracula and the society in which he lived, but to truly understand Dracula you must understand the politics of the time.
Dracula spent his entire life trying to obtain and maintain the throne of Walachia. Walachia was a region south of Transylvania and north of Bulgaria.
The location of Walachia is the key to the political turmoil that took place in the 15th century. To the
Amazing find!!!!

Ok so it is becoming very clear that I made the right choice for my costume. From coming up with great ideas to finding the perfect weapon (the sword should arrive Wed) I have experienced countless just incredibly lucky finds and lucky little accidents. I have met some very helpful, interesting, and really nice people. I feel like the universe has my back on this one.
Now I have to tell you about this amazing find of mine. Three friends and I went to a flea market this weekend.
Just something stupid I did during a lecture today.

I have no natural enemies
Because by nature I am unnatural
I am mankind’s pinnacle
I exist outside the natural boundaries
I am the absolute
The Designation of this stands resolute
I am the prince of darkness
I am Vlad Tepes
I walk this earth still this day
Ever waging war in my own special way
I have an army at my side
Watching from the darkness in which we hide
The flesh gives way to my invasion
No turning back now!
Well my sword is bought and paid for, and I have to say I am positively brimming with anticipation. I am so excited about this costume. This is a really promising first step. My only regret is that I wont be able to take my crown jewel to the party because (as hooch correctly guessed, it is very sharp and could slash someone in two), but it doesn't matter. If I can make my costume even half as terrifying as its inspiration. It wont matter that I don't have this vicous killing machine with me.
I have a good feeling about this halloween

Everytime I start to think about or work on anything for halloween this year I feel this positive energy come over me. I really think that it is going to turn out great. I am inspired and pasionate about my costume. This year I am remaking a staple of the halloween tradition, Dracula. I have come to the conclusion that the image of the vampire has lost the terror that was once fundametally interwoven with the very idea of the vampire. I believe that this since of terror has
