Welcome back to Bloomin’ Legends! The podcast where we uncover the wildest, most legendary, and unbelievable true stories from history!

In this episode, Johnny Vaughan and Gavin “The Woodman” Woods enter the dark and brutal world of Vlad the Impaler, the 15th-century Wallachian ruler who defended his land from the Ottomans with shocking cruelty. From forests of impaled enemies to his enduring legacy as the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Vlad’s story is part nightmare, part national heroism.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

🩸 Prince of Pain – How Vlad earned his blood-soaked reputation

⚔️ War Against the Ottomans – The ruthless tactics that terrified invaders

🌲 The Forest of the Impaled – His most infamous act of psychological warfare

🦇 From Man to Myth – How Vlad became Dracula, the ultimate monster of legend

Bloomin’ Legend or Not?

At the end of the episode, we decide: Was Vlad a true Bloomin’ Legend? Or just history’s most sadistic ruler?
