Dracula Is a Racist:. Matt Melvin
Читать онлайн книгу.
In the early sixteenth century, there was an abundance of transvestites living in Pennsylvania. For those who lived there, this was common, but it was quite a different sight for those not accustomed to the area.
One such passerby, a refined gentleman by the name of Herbert P. Wilcox, was traveling through the area on a trip with several members from the Refined Gentlemen’s Club. Wilcox noticed this high concentration of trannies and commented to his traveling companions, “Pennsylvania? More like Transylvania! Am I right!?” They all shared a hearty laugh among each other.
One of those companions was none other than novelist Bram Stoker, who later used the name as the homeland of the main character in the previously mentioned biography, Dracula.
That’s right, what most of us know as the birthplace of the most famous vampire in history is actually just a slang term coined by a man who enjoyed making fun of transvestites.
So if Transylvania isn’t the actual origin of the vampire and is really just a myth, where do vampires come from then?
