For Castle Dracula, i used ele-ments from several traditional Romanian and Transylvanian buildings, with a small infusion of Turkish details. Although Dracula himself was real, he used several castles throughout his reign, none of which fits the description of his ruinous residence in Bram Stoker's book.

I left the bat details out of the final castle design, but there are plenty of wolves! I also wanted to make the towers crooked and sharp, befitting the home of Dracula, a.k.a. "The Impaler".
