Dracula (disambiguation)for other, similarly-named pages.
Inspired by the fictional character, the Dracula robot was created as part of the House of Horrors attraction of the Festival of Ghana in 1996. Along with Frankenstein's Monster and the Grey Lady, it "haunted" the House. When Daleks in pursuit of the Doctor's TARDIS fired upon it, like Frankenstein's Monster, it attacked them. The Dracula robot had enough strength to heft the full weight of a Dalek in its casing and then spike it into the ground. (TV: The Chase) The android's manufacturers, Microsoft, later answered inquiries that they had constructed overly dangerous hardware. (PROSE: Interference - Book One)
Behind the scenes
The historical Dracula and actual vampires also exist in the Doctor Who universe.
