Classical Movie Vampire | comment |
The stock portrayal of vampires for years, but no older than cinema, the Classical Movie Vampire was first developed from Bela Lugosi's stage portrayal of Dracula before being codified by his performance in the 1931 film version made by Universal Pictures. Several aspects of Lugosi's Dracula became iconic enough that practically every male vampire in popular culture from then until The '70s was like this, although nowadays it's pretty much a Dead Horse Trope, aside from deliberate parodies or homages. This type of vampire will be easily recognized by his slicked-back hairstyle (generally featuring a Villainous Widow's Peak), his sinister yet gentlemanly personality, his elegantly outdated wardrobe (consisting of white tie and tails, with a black Ominous Opera Cape and High Collar of Doom), his calmly menacing demeanor (although with the occasional dramatic flourish), and of course his thick Eastern European accent (liberally peppered with Vampire Vords). Often his eyes will be framed in a beam of light. While in Bram Stoker's original novel Dracula is described as having a long mustache (and, later on, a pointed beard), the Classical Movie Vampire tends to be clean-shaven. Occasionally, elements of the Classical Movie Vampire are also derived from Christopher Lee's more monstrous portrayal of the Count in Hammer Horror pictures. In such cases, the vampire will be over six feet tall and have both red eyes and prominent fangs. Also, Lee's version (particularly in the early films) hardly spoke at all, emphasizing his towering physicality. Sometimes referred to as "the full Lugosi" or simply "a dracula," this is the type of vampire that you'll generally come across in a Monster Mash (although other kinds may turn up as well). A Sub-Trope of Our Vampires Are Different. A Super-Trope to Vampire Vords (which is about the way this character type usually speaks, an exaggeration of the way Lugosi really spoke English). A Sister Trope to Looks Like Orlok. Contrast Feral Vampires. |

Valvatorez of Disgaea 4 had the classic vampire look during his days as Tyrant. He still maintains most of it, but with some more modern touches (the cravat was replaced by a Cleavage Window, for example). Maderas and the rare Vampire monster units in Disgaea: Hour of Darkness are a straight example. |

The Invitation (2022): Walter De Ville is a vampire who drinks blood to maintain eternal life, doesn’t burn up in the sun, can only be killed with a Wooden Stake, decapitation, or fire, and lives in a gothic mansion. He also has two vampire brides, Viktoria and Lucy, with plans to make Evie his third, all of them supplied to him by the three families that serve as his Renfields in exchange for their wealth. Moreover, it is all but outright stated that Walt is Dracula himself, even if the film dances around using that name. | |

One episode of the Nelvana Care Bears cartoon features the villainous green-skinned Dr. Fright, who literally draws power from his victims' fear by terrifying them with an elaborate mechanical death trap, and collaborates with the evil sorcerer No Heart in his plan to destroy all caring and create "an unfeeling, scary world". While it's not clear whether or not he's actually a vampire, he comes equipped with the requisite tuxedo, high-collared cape and widow's peak, and even greets his victims with a Lugosian "Gooood eeeeeveniiiiinnng". | |

Hellboy and B.P.R.D.: The series likes to borrow from every vampire tradition imaginable, but the classic movie vampires show up The Sleeping and the Dead, 1946, and 1947. Mignola also came up with an explanation for why Hellboy doesn't encounter these types of vampires more often: Vampires used to be a real epidemic in Europe, but humanity got too good at fighting back. So, in 1774, the heads of the European vampire families agreed to bide their time and go into hiding until humanity collectively forgot about them. | |

An earlier Halloween episode featured Mr. Burns as a vampire living in Pennsylvania. (He Looks Like Orlok, though, because, well, he does anyway. The episode also gave him the weird winged hairdo that Gary Oldman sported in Bram Stoker's Dracula.) |

The Dresden Files: Harry dresses up like this specifically to piss the vampires off. It nearly gets him killed. But it was hilarious. Black Court Vampires count, given that they are literally vampires straight out of Dracula. They share all the Dracula weaknesses, but with their rotten stench and corpse-like appearance, are more in looks-like-Orlok territory. |

Discworld vampires are clearly aware of this archetype, and feel some compulsion to obey it — and then proceed to parody, rebel against, or honor the tradition. Even those who give up drinking blood retain most of the standard vampire features, such as not drinking... vine and dressing in black. They don't technically have Eastern European accents; most have Uberwald accents, which written phonetically are pretty much indistinguishable from Eastern European accents. (The word "Uberwald" means the same as "Transylvania" in German instead of Latin.) It's implied to be the result of their compulsive personalities and the Theory of Narrative Causality working on them, which it takes an effort of will to resist. Count von Magpyr, in Carpe Jugulum, however, still drinks blood but is specifically described as not matching the trope, having the formidable willpower required to resist it: In fact, the Magpyr portrait gallery in the same novel is a bit of a history of vampire tropes. The current Count is a parody of modern "cool" vampires (and his followers are all stylish dressers with a taste for fancy waistcoats), the Old Count (his great-uncle) is a classical movie vampire, his father Looks Like Orlok, there's a cross between Carmilla and Elizabeth Bathory, and a more distant ancestor is a beaked monster. Heck, Carpe Jugulum is a Reconstruction of the Genre, showing why a classical movie vampire (who doesn't pretend he's not a monster, who respects tradition, and who generally comes across as a sporting guy and a Worthy Opponent) will last longer than the "cool" new vampyres. Especially since he's got the decency to spend a bit of time pretending to be dead after being staked. Oh, and everyone calls him The Old Count, but his actual name is "Bela". There's also Otto von Chriek, a non-blood-drinker and obsessive photographer, who takes the trope toward parody. (Otto gets peeved at least once in the books, whereupon he proves that he's perfectly capable of terrifying people if he really wants to.) Arthur Winkings (Count Notfaroutoe) dresses the part. He doesn't have the accent, but his wife Doreen (who is not a vampire) does. They're both Ankh-Morpork natives, so it's entirely affectation on Doreen's part — she makes him wear the opera cape, but he drew the line at the accent. |

Jonathan Reid, the main protagonist of Vampyr (2018) is one of the most modern depictions of this trope played straight. He is a dark, sinister-looking European aristocratic gentleman with a coat that strongly resembles a cape with a High Collar of Doom, is cursed with a Horror Hunger, lives in a time just after the Victorian era, possesses mesmerism, is affected by crosses, and is chased by vampire hunters. In fact, most Ekon vampires are inspired by Dracula. | |

The Sims: In The Sims 2's Nightlife expansion, the male vampire NPC, whose name usually starts with "Count", looks like this. They also get the "Bleh!" interaction to scare other Sims (and reduce their Bladder meter), and they have to sleep in coffins. Averted in The Sims 3's Late Night and Supernatural expansions, which went for more modern inspirations for its vampires. The Sims 4's Vampires expansion has three pre-made vampire NPCs, and one of them, Vladislaus Straud, fits the bill perfectly. He's a count with an Eastern European-ish name (Sims all speak a made-up language without any real accents) who lives in a gothic mansion, he has the facial features, he wears a black longcoat with a high collar, he has the Evil personality trait, and he Looks Like Orlok when he puts on his Game Face. Of the other two, Caleb Vatore is more reminiscent of Edward Cullen or Lestat, while Caleb's sister Lilith only fits the bill in her formal outfit. The game also lets players decide what a vampire's strengths and weaknesses are through a leveling system as they grow more powerful, meaning that they can bring their vampire Sims as close to this trope as they wish. |

The Simpsons: One appears as a joke when Apu defends keeping every store in Springfield open 24-7, listing them as an important demographic businesses are neglecting (along with insomniacs and men who've been kicked out of the house by their wives).

The Sims 4's Vampires expansion has three pre-made vampire NPCs, and one of them, Vladislaus Straud, fits the bill perfectly. He's a count with an Eastern European-ish name (Sims all speak a made-up language without any real accents) who lives in a gothic mansion, he has the facial features, he wears a black longcoat with a high collar, he has the Evil personality trait, and he Looks Like Orlok when he puts on his Game Face. Of the other two, Caleb Vatore is more reminiscent of Edward Cullen or Lestat, while Caleb's sister Lilith only fits the bill in her formal outfit. The game also lets players decide what a vampire's strengths and weaknesses are through a leveling system as they grow more powerful, meaning that they can bring their vampire Sims as close to this trope as they wish. | |

Subverted in The Real Ghostbusters episode "Transylvania Homesick Blues". At first glance, Count Vostok fits the bill perfectly, having the appearance and voice to a tee, living in the fictional Slavic country of Boldavia, and in a stock sinister castle on a mountaintop. However, the Count is revealed to be a benevolent entity who survives on artificial blood, and also the victim of a plot by his Van Helsing-esque rival to turn the stereotypical angry torch-wielding Mitteleuropean peasants in the nearby village against him. (Furthermore, he reveals that the novel "Dracula" was apparently based on the historical rivalry between the families of the count and the vampire hunter who pursues him.) | |

Prince Mamuwalde himself, aside from being black, is also instantly recognizable as a vampire, with the Villainous Widow's Peak, red-lined cape, and frilly Victorian outfit. He's more the Tragic Monster, pining for his lost love variety of vampire, as opposed to Dracula, who is just the worst. | |

The World of Darkness: One adventure features a vampire living in a film studio. (He used to do Bela Lugosi impressions for a living when he was still human.) He went mad during the transformation and was convinced he was Dracula, to the point of manifesting all "traditional" vampire powers. In Vampire: The Requiem, one of the elder vampires claiming to be the Dracula is nicknamed "Hollywood Drac." He looks like a cross between Lugosi and Christopher Lee, and is pictured wearing an outfit identical to the one in the picture above. On a less serious note, Vampire: The Masquerade had the "Stereotype" flaw. Any character with this flaw, upon realizing that they were a vampire, immediately decided that they needed to dress the part, usually involving a long black cape and going "Blah! I vant to sahk yoor blahd!" a whole lot. On a more serious note, Clan Tzimisce (generally believed to be Dracula's clan) is generally the more sophisticated variant of this. They live in old castles in the stormy mountains of Eastern Europe, show exceptional hospitality to travelers looking to stay the night, and generally call themselves Viscount or Baron or Voivode or what have you. They just also happen to be masters of Body Horror, and may or may not turn you into a hideously deformed freak or a living piece of furniture if you offend their delicate, old-fashioned sensibilities. |

In Magic: The Gathering, the vampires of the Gothic Horror-inspired world of Innistrad are very much this. This was actually a plot point in the preceding Zendikar block, where Zendikar-native planeswalker Nissa Revane didn't realize Innistradi planeswalker Sorin Markov was a vampire until near the end of the block's storyline, because the vampires on Zendikar don't fit this trope at all, instead living in barbarian tribes with Mayincatec trappings. | |

Warhammer: The Von Carstein vampire bloodline have traditionally exhibited all the classic movie vampire traits, and most of the older model range is heavily inspired by the classic movie vampire look. More recent model incarnations have given them a harsher, more militaristic aesthetic, with heavy fluted armour and bat designs highly prominent. According to the designers, however, this is because the newer models are meant to represent the Von Carsteins on the battlefield, where it would be considered foolhardy at worst and very unseemly at best to dress in formal evening wear. In more relaxed settings they're still depicted with the traditional capes, jackets and aristocratic airs, and they're typically found living in dark, gothic castles in a haunted Ãœberwald. | |

In the Doctor Who Season 3 serial "The Chase", the Doctor met Dracula who looked just like the stereotype. Although, in fact, the Doctor had only met a Dracula android. Seriously. Later, in the Season 18 serial "State of Decay", the Doctor meets vampires who play the stereotype straight, though a more medieval version (fitting the setting) and without the accents. | |

Mostly averted in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, with one notable exception taking advantage of the ultimate Grandfather Clause: Dracula. He can shape-shift into animals and mist, can hypnotise people into willing minions, he lives in a Big Fancy House, and he's more focused on romance than just finding food. This is partly down to personal taste—he's seen as an eccentric celebrity by other vamps—and partly due to having unique and mysterious powers, which Spike attributes to "some kind of gypsy thing". | |

BloodRayne 2 had Zerenski, one of Rayne's siblings that dressed in a fine suit and whose only power was shapeshifting into a cloud of bats.

Lady Alcina Dimitrescu in Resident Evil Village is about as close to this trope as you can get in a Sci-Fi Horror game series without any explicit supernatural elements. Even if she's not technically a vampire, everything about her — her Eastern European castle and winery, her regal, aristocratic appearance, her three daughters who call to mind Dracula's brides and can shapeshift into swarms of flies — reflects the game's Gothic Horror inspirations, on top of her exhibiting a number of vampire-like traits such as drinking blood, having very pale skin, avoiding direct sunlight, and being very long-lived. And to top it all off, her One-Winged Angel form during her boss fight resembles a dragon, and the name Dracula means "Son of the Dragon". A few twists are, however, put on the classic imagery with Dimitrescu's daughters, who have some biological differences from their "mother". Instead of the sun, it's the cold that they're vulnerable to, they prefer straight-up cannibalism instead of just drinking blood like their mother, and their shapeshifting turns out to be because they're actually The Worm That Walks. | |
