I recently appeared on OAN’s Tipping Point, with Kara McKinney, to discuss the apparently most intriguing character profiled in my book, Defenders of the West — namely, Count Dracula, or Vlad the Impaler:
Vlad Tepes is a dubious character – his motivations to side with/defect the Turks was as much driven by personal ambitions to rule Wallachia against his Wlach competitors from the Basarab dynasty as his psychopathology to massacre his opponents, including raiding Transylvanian towns as Ottoman ally, in the Kingdom of Hungary
…. but Béla Lugosi as Dracula still rules, nonetheless… 🙂
