I love vampires! I’ve been reading a lot of vampire and werewolves (or other shapeshifters) stories lately. But, I have to admit something: I’ve never read the classic, original Dracula story. I know, I know, horrible of me! But it is on my list. The book is waiting for me in the front of my to-read list and all the way on the right of my to-read shelf. And a review will follow shortly after, I promise! And one of my favourite storytelling posts, was in fact about the legend of Dracula – in a cave system in Hungary.
But anyway, back to it! I’ve just found a Dracula quiz on Goodreads on this Friday the thirteenth. So, I had to take it of course!

Auwtch, I really need to read that book! Only got 5 out of 11 correct. I’m embarrassed!
Seriously, if you answered number 4 in the 1st question, get away from this blog! I don’t have anything against her, I read Twilight and liked it and I love some of her other work. But come on!
Anyway, happy quizzing!
