The following individuals appear in uncredited roles: director and co-producer Tod Browning as the off-screen voice of the harbormaster; Carla Laemmle , a cousin of producer Carl Laemmle Jr.
Bram Stoker's novel had already been filmed without permission as Nosferatu in by German Expressionist filmmaker F.
Bram Stoker's widow sued for plagiarism and copyright infringement , and the courts decided in her favor, essentially ordering that all prints of Nosferatu be destroyed.
Initially, he wanted Dracula to be a spectacle on a scale with the lavish silent films The Hunchback of Notre Dame and The Phantom of the Opera The screenwriters carefully studied the silent, unauthorized version, F.
Murnau 's Nosferatu , for inspiration. Lifted directly from a nearly identical scene in Nosferatu that does not appear in Stoker's novel, was the early scene at the Count's castle when Renfield accidentally pricks his finger on a paper clip and it starts to bleed.
Dracula creeps toward him with glee, only to be repelled when the crucifix falls in front of the bleeding finger. Decision on casting the title role proved problematic.
Initially, Laemmle was not at all interested in Lugosi, in spite of good reviews for his stage portrayal. Lugosi had played the role on Broadway, [9] and to his good fortune, happened to be in Los Angeles with a touring company of the play when the film was being cast.
According to numerous accounts, the production is alleged to have been a mostly disorganized affair, [a] with the usually meticulous Tod Browning leaving cinematographer Karl Freund to take over during much of the shoot, making Freund something of an uncredited director on the film.
David Manners who played John Harker recalled about the filming: "I can still see Lugosi, parading up and down the stage, posing in front of a full-length mirror, throwing his cape over his shoulder and shouting, 'I am Dracula!
He was polite, but always distant. The actor wondered why the film version reduced the large mirror used in the play to the small cigarette box with a mirrored lid.
The peasants at the beginning are praying in Hungarian , and the signs of the village are also in Hungarian. By the time the film was made, Transylvania had since become part of Romania in The scenes of crew members on the ship struggling in the violent storm were lifted from a Universal silent film, The Storm Breaker Photographed at silent film projection speed , this accounts for the jerky, sped-up appearance of the footage when projected at 24 frames per second sound film speed and cobbled together with new footage of Dracula and Renfield.
Before the film was even released, Lugosi worried that it would cause him to be type cast. He reportedly rejected an offer to reprise his role as Dracula in another stage tour of the play, stating: "No!
Not at any price. When I'm through with this picture I hope to never hear of Dracula again. I cannot stand it I do not intend that it shall possess me.
The film's histrionic dramatics from the stage play are also reflected in its special effects , which are limited to fog, lighting, and large flexible bats.
Dracula's transition from bat to person is always done off-camera. The film also employs extended periods of silence and character close-ups for dramatic effect, and employs two expository intertitles and a closeup of a newspaper article to advance the story, a seeming holdover from silent films ; a point made by online film critic James Berardinelli [19] is that the actors' performance style seems to belong to the silent era.
Director Tod Browning had a solid reputation as a silent film director, having made them since , but he never felt completely at ease with sound films.
Browning directed his last film in Owing to the costs of adding an original musical score to a film's soundtrack, no score had ever been composed specifically for the film.
During the theatre scene where Dracula meets Dr. In , composer Philip Glass was commissioned to compose a musical score for the classic film.
The score was performed by the Kronos Quartet [4] under the direction of Michael Reisman, Glass's usual conductor. Of the project, Glass said: "The film is considered a classic.
I felt the score needed to evoke the feeling of the world of the 19th century — for that reason I decided a string quartet would be the most evocative and effective.
I wanted to stay away from the obvious effects associated with horror films. With [the Kronos Quartet] we were able to add depth to the emotional layers of the film.
Universal's DVD releases allow the viewer to choose between the unscored soundtrack or the Glass score. The soundtrack, Dracula , was released by Nonesuch Records in Dracula was a big gamble for a major Hollywood studio to undertake.
In spite of the literary credentials of the source material, it was uncertain if an American audience was prepared for a serious full length supernatural chiller.
Though American audiences had been exposed to other chillers before, such as The Cat and the Canary , this was a horror story with no comic relief or trick ending that downplayed the supernatural.
Despite this, Dracula proved to be a box office success. This publicity, shrewdly orchestrated by the film studio, helped ensure people came to see the film, if for no other reason than curiosity.
The film was generally well received by critics upon its release. Mordaunt Hall of The New York Times called it "the best of the many mystery films", characterizing Browning's direction as "imaginative" and Helen Chandler's performance as "excellent".
The film was originally released with a running time of 85 minutes; [1] when it was reissued in , the Production Code was enforced.
For that reissue, two scenes are known to have been censored. In the early days of sound films, it was common for Hollywood studios to produce " Foreign Language Versions " of their films using the same sets, costumes and so on.
Long thought lost , a print of this Dracula was discovered in the s and restored. A third, silent , version of the film was also released.
In , some theaters had not yet been wired for sound and during this transition period, many studios released alternative silent versions with intertitles.
In , film critic Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times gave the film four out of four stars, praising Lugosi's performance and Freund's cinematography.
The site's critical consensus reads: "Bela Lugosi's timeless portrayal of Dracula in this creepy and atmospheric film has set the standard for major vampiric roles since.
After the commercial and critical success of Dracula , Universal released Frankenstein later that same year. Universal in particular would become the forefront of early horror cinema, with a canon of films including The Mummy , The Invisible Man , Bride of Frankenstein , and The Wolf Man In , five years after release, Universal released Dracula's Daughter , a direct sequel that starts immediately after the end of the first film.
The Count returned to life in three more Universal films of the mids: 's House of Frankenstein , 's House of Dracula and 's comedy Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein.
Universal would only cast Lugosi as Dracula in one more film, the aforesaid Abbott and Costello vehicle, [39] giving the role to John Carradine for the mids "monster rally" films, although Carradine admittedly more closely resembled Stoker's physical description from the book.
Many of the familiar images of Dracula are from stills of the older Lugosi made during the filming of the comedy, so there remain two confusingly distinct incarnations of Lugosi as Dracula, seventeen years apart in age.
As Lugosi played a vampire in three other movies during his career, [b] this contributed to the public misconception that he portrayed Dracula on film many times.
Since its release, Dracula has become widely regarded as a classic of the era and of its genre. In , it was selected for preservation in the U.
National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". To many film lovers and critics alike, Lugosi's portrayal is widely regarded as the definitive Dracula.
Lugosi had a powerful presence and authority on-screen. The slow, deliberate pacing of his performance "I bid you… welcome!
With this mesmerizing performance, Dracula became Bela Lugosi's signature role, his Dracula a cultural icon , and he himself a legend in the classic Universal Horror film series.
However, Dracula would ultimately become a role which would prove to be both a blessing and a curse. Despite his earlier stage successes in a variety of roles, from the moment Lugosi donned the cape on screen, it would forever see him typecast as the Count.
Browning would go on to direct Lugosi once more in another vampire thriller, Mark of the Vampire , a remake of his lost silent film London After Midnight Also, the film is recognized by American Film Institute in these lists:.
The actors, who followed in Lugosi's shoes in playing Dracula, and who achieved significant fame in that role, had different attitudes to Lugosi's portrayal.
I was so disappointed. I was absolutely had been wanting to see it for a long, long time. There are aspects of it, for instance, that I considered ridiculous.
Dracula is played too nice at the beginning. Practically no menace in the character.. There is no shock or fright in it. Two showings each day played a double-feature with the Spanish film's English counterpart.

Stati Uniti d'America. They tell him Count Dracula is a vampire and when he doesn't believe them, one insists he wear a cross.
When he arrives at the Castle, the Count bids him welcome. After drinking drugged wine, Renfield drops the cross and is bitten. Aboard ship, a now-enslaved Renfield laughs maniacally below as Dracula picks off the crew one by one.
When the ship reaches England, he is the only living person found. Dracula meets Dr. Seward and his family at the opera.
Lucia is completely fascinated by him and that night becomes his victim. Professor Van Helsing is called in, and he recognizes the danger for what it is.
He also realizes that Dr. Seward's patient Renfield is somehow tied up in events. But soon after meeting the Doctor's new neighbor, Dracula, he figures out who is a vampire—based on the fact Dracula casts no reflection in the mirror.
Not a moment too soon, because by now Seward's daughter Eva is falling under his spell. With Seward's and Harker's help, Van Helsing seeks to trap Dracula but he outwits them and escapes with Eva by seizing control of a nurse's mind.
They follow Renfield into Carfax Abbey—an act which ends with Dracula killing his slave by strangulation then tossing him from a tall staircase.
Deep in the catacombs under Carfax, they find Dracula asleep and Eva still alive. Van Helsing drives a stake through the vampire's heart, and as Eva and Harker leave, Van Helsing prays over Renfield's body.

Gary Oldman , who played Dracula in Francis Ford Coppola 's adaptation, considered Lugosi to be his favourite Dracula and said about his performance:"He was really on to something: the way he moved, the way he sounded".
Oldman based his Dracula voice on Lugosi's voice. The film's poster campaign was overseen by Universal advertising art director Karoly Grosz , who also illustrated the "insert" poster himself.
