REFLECTIONS OF DRACULA IN CONTEMPORARY POPULAR CULTURE – Iuliana-Elena Asoltanei

From its appearance in Bram Stoker’s novel, Dracula has withstood the test of time and achieved a sense of immortality in popular culture. This is in part due to its many reflections in adaptations and retellings until today. Many of these adaptations have been on the Big and Small screens, either in the form of films or serials, and they have each portrayed their own Dracula. This paper aims to illustrate how Dracula has been reflected in a number of works in the 21st century and how the character’s versatility contributes to his immortality in contemporary popular culture.
