Draculaic

Draculaic: adjective. Something/someone that/who is infamous for being cruel past human comprehension and/or likes to suck blood, whether that is figurative or not. One person known for being quite Draculaic is Dracula, also known as Vlad the Impaler. Interestingly though, he is not regarded as Draculaic in his home country Romania, where he is revered as the protector of the people. Another historical figure who could be regarded as Draculaic is Nicolae Ceaușescu, who figuratively sucked the blood of his own country, leaving it financially devastated.

Disclaimer: The fact that both Vlad the Impaler and Nicolae CeauČ™escu are of Romanian nationality is purely coincidental. The authors of this blog would like to say that we are not picking on Romanians, but our utterly random generator for Draculaic personalities gave us these two and that´s that. 

An example of this word in context is the following: "my mother-in-law is Draculaic. So is this leech stuck on my forehead and this vampire bat happily sucking away on my backside."
