Christopher Lee, a renowned British actor, is best known for his portrayal of Count Dracula in a series of popular horror films produced by Hammer Studios from 1958 to 1973. His first appearance as the iconic vampire was in the film "Dracula" (1958), also known as "Horror of Dracula" in the US.
Lee's portrayal of Dracula was unique and career-defining. He brought a sense of aristocratic dignity to the character, making him both terrifying and charismatic. Despite the popularity and success of these films, Lee had a complex relationship with the role, viewing his long association with Dracula as somewhat limiting to his diverse acting abilities.
One of the notable films in which Lee reprised his role as Dracula was "Dracula: Prince of Darkness" (1966). In this film, Dracula is resurrected by his servant and preys on unsuspecting English tourists. Another film, "Count Dracula" (1970), was advertised as the most faithful adaptation of Bram Stoker's novel. In this film, Dracula begins as an old man and becomes younger as he feeds upon fresh blood.
In total, Christopher Lee played the character of Dracula ten times, leaving an indelible mark on the genre of gothic horror.
Buy a souvenir plot of land from the most magical and mysterious region in the world
This Transylvanian gift is both creative and original, with a touch of mystery. Experience the thrill of owning property in the Transylvanian Carpathians, known as the region of vampires and werewolves.
Transylvania is surrounded by the densely forested mountains of the Carpathians like a huge castle created by nature. This region is home to medieval towns and unspoilt villages.
But behind this idyllic facade lies a dark secret that terrifies the locals. For Transylvania is also home to vampires, the sinister creatures of the night that feed on the blood of the living.
What sounds like fantasy and fiction is actually a real place, a region in central Romania. In the Transylvanian forests, there are secrets and magic that seem to be out of this world. Faint lights glow between the trees, eerie, whispering voices can be heard on the wind. Travellers who have ventured too deep into the forest have never been seen again...
The Gothic cemeteries full of eerie crypts and tombs may harbour the remains of undead creatures. The mysterious and magical symbols on the tombstones show the fear of the population and their attempt to block the path of the sinister, cruel beings into our world.
You are supporting a special nature and animal conservation project in Transylvania. We plant native deciduous trees - original tree species such as robinia, oak and maple. We are actively committed to the protection of flora and fauna. The land for our land donations may not be used commercially.
This means that trees, shrubs, grasses, flowers, herbs, mosses and fungi can develop undisturbed. At the same time, the fauna also develops with numerous different species: Insects, reptiles, amphibians as well as small mammals and birds find a safe habitat here.
The property's own spring and the stream on the property round off this habitat. They provide undisturbed access for all the fauna from the surrounding area and the opportunity to obtain fresh, clear spring and mountain water. This is particularly important during the long, hot and dry Transylvanian summers.
Roe deer, deer, foxes, wild boar, badgers, martens, frogs, toads and amphibians, small rodents and reptiles such as lizards and slow worms from the surrounding woodland areas make use of this opportunity and regularly visit the fresh water source.
This project actively contributes to the preservation and expansion of valuable ecosystems.
The land gifts are located on this property.
Don't wait any longer and take your own piece of Transylvania!
