caption: Vlad TEPES DRACULA (1431-1476) portrait while it lunches calmly in front of its prisoners executed by means of impalatura; it was famous in Valacchia, ancient Rumania, for its ferocity in battle and between alternate events he was also for a sure period the emperor, in fight against the Ottoman empire of Muhammad II who pressed near of Europe. Its efferatezza in the fight against the invading Turks historically is assessed and perhaps it is to the base of the legend then which fictionalized in the book of Bram Stoker (Dracula, 1897) various centuries after. In a letter sent to the King of Hungary 11 February 1462 Vlad Tepes asserts to have executed'in last the three mesi'contati with maniacale precision “23,883 Turks”. The preferred system was the impalatura (tepes in Rumanian means the impalatore) but historically other efferatezze are assessed also. Legend has it that or he vampiro the Dracula di Transilvania.
