About this listen

The episode provides a detailed overview of Dracula Land, a proposed €1 billion theme park and mega-resort project slated for development near Bucharest, Romania, with a potential opening in 2027. This ambitious project aims to capitalize on the globally recognized Dracula myth, which fuses the history of Vlad the Impaler with the fictional Count Dracula created by Bram Stoker. Beyond a standard park, the resort is envisioned as a "hybrid ecosystem" featuring six immersive themed lands, three hotels, Europe’s largest aqua park, and a digital component called the Draculaverse. Although previous attempts at a Dracula park failed, this iteration, led by Dragoș Dobrescu, forecasts millions of annual visitors, thousands of jobs, and a multi-billion-euro economic impact for Romania, despite existing skepticism about the country's history of stalled mega-projects. The overall goal is to establish Romania as a major European tourism destination, appealing to both families and horror enthusiasts through a blend of high-tech attractions and cultural heritage preservation.
