9''Drakula'' is a Hungarian musical based off of [[{{Dracula}} the famous vampire story]]. It was put on by the Magyar Lovas Színház Komárom, and relies heavily on [[{{Spectacle}} spectacle]], which includes making great use of the theatre's live horses in the show.

11The show premiered in 2007, and featured Edit Vörös as Mina, Balázs Nagy as Jonathan, Nikolett Gallusz as Lucy, and Tibor Pintér as Drakula.

14!!Tropes include:

16%%* BrainlessBeauty: Lucy is turned into one here.
17%%* BritishStuffiness: Amped up with Arthur.
18* TheDeadCanDance: The vampires dance several times, but the best example of this is "A Holtak Ébredése".
19* FieryRedhead: Lucy isn't all too fiery on her own, but when compared with Mina...
20%%* HakunaMatata: "Szívkirály".
21* {{Leitmotif}}: The villagers have "Surran Az Árnyék", and Drakula has "Isten Útja Más".
22* OminousMusicBoxTune: One plays during the verses of "Isten Útja Más".
23%%* OneWomanSong: "Elizabetha".
24* PimpedOutDress: The one Mina is wearing around town when she first meets the count.
25* PragmaticAdaptation: Many subplots and characters simply thrown out, while a few new ones are added, and much more attention paid to things that were minor in the book. Dr. Seward and Renfield don't exist at all, and Lucy's decision between her possible suitors (now only Quincey Morris and Arthur Holmwood) is a major part of the story.
26%%* TheProfessor: Van Helsing, of course.
27%%* RockOpera
28* ShoutOut: The ending (different from the novel) is a shout out to Theatre/TanzDerVampire - [[spoiler: As Mina and Jonathan embrace, him thinking she's safe, Mina suddenly reveals vampire fangs to the audience and bites him]].
29* TriumphantReprise: There are ones of both "Surran Az Árnyék" and "Az Út Vár" before the finale.
30%%* {{Uberwald}}: Of course.
31%%* VampireBitesSuck
32%%* VillainousLament: "Isten Útja Más".
