His vicious family, who lived 500 years ago, inspired the original Dracula stories.
But the current Count is now 61 and has no children, so he wants to adopt a child.
And he doesn't want just anybody - he wants aristocracy, even from Britain!
He says: "Those who might be interested should write to me, including a photograph. They must be nobles and should be younger than me, obviously. It would be a great advantage if they could have children too."
Bloodsucker
The current Count Dracula was himself adopted into the family in the 1980s.
But he is a bloodsucker of some sort. He spends most of his time recruiting blood donors for the German Red Cross!
