Our world is full of the unexplainable.

And if history is an open book, all of these amazing tales are right there on display,

just waiting for us to explore.

Welcome to the Cabinet of Curiosity's.

Speak the name Transylvania, and you might feel a chill.

It evokes a certain image, one of a man clad in black, with sharp fangs dripping with

blood.

Its people have often been portrayed as hapless peasants, fearful of the creature living

in the scary castle at the top of the hill.

In fact, Transylvania is almost nothing like the way Bromstoker portrayed it in his novel.

Even Dracula's castle, which many have claimed is based on Transylvania's real brand castle,

is in no way associated with the historical roots of the famous character.

Almost everything we know about the region is thanks to one famous book and its countless

film adaptations, and it's wrong.

The historic area located in central Romania is actually lush and green, not dark and

It's populated by people from all different backgrounds who live and work in any one

And for potential tourists looking to explore the hometown of one of the greatest characters

in all of literature, there's a lot more to see than just castles.
