At four years old, Ria Thundercloud was brought into the powwow
circle, ready to dance in the special jingle dress her mother made
for her. As she grew up, she danced with her brothers all over
Indian country. Then Ria learned more styles - tap, jazz, ballet -
but still loved the expressiveness of Indigenous dance. And despite
feeling different as one of the only Native American kids in her
school, she always knew she could turn to dance to cheer herself
up.
Who HQ brings you the stories behind the most beloved--and
frightening!--characters of our time. Find out how Dracula--a
smooth-talking count with a dark secret--became the infamous
creature we all know and fear. From appearances in films and
animated features to interpretations as a Muppet and breakfast
cereal mascot, Dracula has been the inspiration for many other
fictional vampires and is now an established figure in pop culture.
Created by Bram Stoker in his 1897 Gothic horror novel, Count
Dracula is a nobleman who uses his powers as a vampire to dominate
his victims. Even though Dracula didn't succeed in the novel, the
fictional character has lived on to dominate the real world as one
of its most popular supernatural villains. Author Michael Burgan
explores Dracula's mysterious origins in the historical figures who
might have shaped the character, as well as the films and actors
that cemented Dracula's place in cinematic history.
