From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dracula is a vampire character, best known as the title character of Bram Stoker's 1897 novel. The character also is widely used within popular culture and is used in the Buffyverse; in the Buffy episode, "Buffy vs. Dracula", Tales of the Vampires, and Spike vs. Dracula. He is also referenced in Old Times, and Blackout.
Dracula has also appeared as a villain in the series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, in an episode called "Buffy vs. Dracula". Buffy Summers, having "seen his movies", waits after first killing him, noting that he "always comes back". In the comic (of debatable canonicity), Spike vs. Dracula, it is revealed that Dracula has connections to the gypsy clan that cursed Angel with a soul. He is an acquaintance of Anya Jenkins, and Spike claims he is a sell-out of the vampire world, fond of magic and Hollywood. The vampire popularised by Bram Stoker in the Dracula novel is also used as a basis for the ideas in the show, primarily the methods in which vampires are killed.
is a character from the Buffyverse, first 'appearing' in the Angel episode "The Girl in Question". The Immortal never appears onscreen throughout the entire episode and is only mentioned. However, from the descriptions we can gather that he is incredibly attractive, athletic, intelligent and also apparently genuinely immortal and unaging. He has accomplished numerous incredible feats and managed to seduce many women, including Darla, Drusilla and Buffy. In Angel Season Five, it is established that Buffy has in fact begun living with the Immortal.
