This section delves into the lore and context surrounding Dracula, also known as "The Dark Lord," within the world of Dead by Daylight. As a Killer introduced in CHAPTER 33: Castlevania, Dracula brings his iconic presence from the Castlevania franchise into the Fog.

Dracula, or Count Vlad Tepes Dracula, originates from Wallachia, Romania, and is a character deeply rooted in video game history, with his design in Dead by Daylight drawing from his appearances in Konami's Castlevania series, notably Castlevania (1986) and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (1997).

Within Dead by Daylight, Dracula is classified as a Killer with a unique Power called Vampiric Shift. His primary weapon is the Pale Claws, and his movement speed is 115% (4.6 m/s) with a Terror Radius of 32 meters. His Lullaby Radius in Bat Form is 48 meters. He is a tall Killer and was voiced by Crispin Freeman.

The character was made available through the CHAPTER 33: Castlevania DLC and can be purchased for 500 Auric Cells. His inclusion adds a significant piece of gothic horror lore to the game's ever-expanding roster of Killers and Survivors.
