What does a character in a children’s show have in common with a bloodthirsty monster from a horror movie? Well, they’re all based on the same fictional person – Count Dracula!

Count Dracula is the central character in the book by Bram Stoker, an Irish author. In the book, Dracula is an English nobleman who is secretly a vampire. Of course, there is a hero who kills him in the end, but hey, the book isn’t named after him! 

Fun fact: Did you know that during Halloween in the United Kingdom, the popular store Poundland uses Dracula’s voice at its self-service checkout counter? That should be hilarious!

But we’re not talking about the horror version of Dracula today – we’re going with the child-friendly version, like the one on Sesame Street, who goes by the name of Count von Count. It’s clever that the makers of the show played on the name and turned him into someone who loves counting! 

Today, we have for you a cute monster who looks a lot like the Sesame Street version – an easy printable Paper Dracula Bookmark. And this little guy doesn’t love counting; he loves reading, and he loves it even more when he can help you read!

7. Now attach the arms. When doing this, take care – apply glue only on the top of the arms – the lower portions need to be free.
