Dracula Soil 🦇

"He was deathly pale, just like a waxen image, and the red eyes glared with the horrible vindictive look which I knew so well." ~ Bram Stoker, Dracula (1897)

This specimen is a vial of earth from Cetatea Poenari, one of the favorite haunts of Vlad Tepes III, Prince of Wallachia, and member of the house of Drăculești. The soil was collected in person and with permission by our co-founder and the creator of the Mini Museum. The soil is contained in a small, glass vial with a cork stopper. The vial is enclosed in a handsome, glass-topped riker box case measuring 4 1/2" x 3 1/2". A small information card is also included, which serves as the certificate of authenticity.
