57:00 - 57:30 now we must discuss the most famous vampire of them all Dracula but who is the real Dracula and how did the story become one of the most famous novels of all time something that I haven't really seen discussed is the con between vampires Dracula and tartaria as it
57:30 - 58:00 would appear there is some lost alternative history involving this subject everyone has heard of the real historical figure that Dracula is based on Vlad the Impaler but how and why is this associated with vampires what is the order of the dragon and how does it connect to tartaria gram Stoker's Dracula was published in 1897 and has become one of the most icon Gothic novels of all time the story unfolds through journal
58:00 - 58:30 entries letters and newspaper clippings following a group of protagonists who confront C Dracula an ancient vampire from Transylvania seeking to spread his influence into England Dracula is depicted as a figure of immense power in ancient lineage tied to an aristocratic and warrior class that elevates him Beyond a mere monster stoker Drew inspiration from a variety of sources including Eastern European folklore historical accounts
58:30 - 59:00 and earlier vampire novels works like John pador the vampire 1819 and Sheridon leanu Carmela 1872 which shaped the image of vampires as seductive and aristocratic rather than grotesque decayed corpses described in traditional folklore stoker built upon this foundation and incorporating historical figures like Vlad the Impaler and medieval Legends to craft a vampire that
59:00 - 59:30 was both fearsome and cunning unlike the bloated and decayed figures of historical lore Stoker's Dracula portrayed as elegant intelligent and highly influential blending seamlessly into society while carrying out his predatory goals the depiction not only modernized the vampire myth but also reinforced Dracula's role as a shadowy figure of elite power and hidden danger now there are a few more novels
59:30 - 60:00 that contributed to the foundation of Dracula one of the earliest examples is a German poem titled the vampire 1748 by Heinrich August ausen Felder which explored themes of Seduction and revenge through vampirism and emphasized the importance of blood and sustaining the vampire later in the mid 19th century vanney the vampire or the Feast of blood 1845 to 1847 became a popular story in
60:00 - 60:30 England it featured Sir Francis Barney an aristocratic vampire whose predatory behavior included draining his victims during gruesome Feast of blood but here's what has been lost and conveniently never mentioned did you know that Bram Stoker was a Master Mason rarely will you hear that mentioned and it's not just Dracula but many early vampire novels before the 20th century were deeply associated with
60:30 - 61:00 and influenced by Freemasonry this is not a conspiracy but a historical fact that hints at something more secretive and Ault surrounding the concept of the vampire even in literary form Stoker's own Masonic Journey began in 1883 when he was initiated into the Buckingham en Chandos Lodge in London eventually becoming a master m during this time he mingled with
61:00 - 61:30 influential figures including Sir Henry Irving whose Charisma Mystique likely inspired elements of Count Dracula himself even John William poori the author of The Vampire was a Freemason initiated in 1818 poori not only created the first modern vampire Tale in English but also served as Lord Byron's personal physician the central character Lord ruthin was based directly on Byron capturing his
61:30 - 62:00 Charisma and Infamous reputation when the vampire was first published in 1819 it was initially attributed to Byron himself reinforcing the connection between the two figures Byron himself came from a family with strong ties to Freemasonry his great uncle was strangely called The Wicked Lord and served as Grandmaster of the Premier Grand Lodge from 1747 to
62:00 - 62:30 1751 the wicked Lord was Infamous for hosting ritualistic Gatherings at his Gothic estate newad Abbey which is very suspicious and implies that there were secretive practices within Elite Masonic circles he also was known for killing his neighbor William chaworth over a simple argument the case led to a trial in the House of Lords in 1765 but he avoided imprisonment by paying a fine walking free despite the
62:30 - 63:00 Scandal both Byron and poori were influenced by this blend of aristocratic privilege occult associations and shattering rituals which undoubtedly shaped the creation of Lord ruthin as a dark aristocratic vampire figure while there is no clear evidence that the author of Carmela leanu was a Freemason his earlier novel the house by the churchard 1863 contains an intriguing reference to Masonic

64:30 - 65:00 this occult knowledge is what keeps her young this novel is basically a lesbian vampire story another common motif of early 19th century vampire literature is the sexual and manipulative nature of these creatures Carmela's aristocratic lineage is tied to a house named carstein which emphasizes that she's not a creature of the night but is actually part of an inherited Legacy our vampirism is not a curse but

68:00 - 68:30 name on their published work so in the original cover you only see his name this is most likely where the idea of for fangs on a vampire came from but yet again we have a wealthy Aristocrat as a vampire according to vanney he was cursed with vampirism after he betrayed a royalist to Oliver Cromwell and subsequently killed his own son accidentally in a fit of anger Oliver Cromwell is a real historical figure and interestingly
68:30 - 69:00 enough was accused in the 18th century of founding Freemasonry this theory was put forward by Abby lodon an 18th century French Catholic writer who claimed in 1745 that Cromwell founded and initiated his closest friends into Freemasonry whether this claim is true or not remains debated by Masons to this day however this indisputably connects Freemasons to vampires once again as
69:00 - 69:30 this is the very act that led Tarney becoming a vampire this is only the beginning of the elite and secret society connections to the literary vampire as we have noted every single early vampire novel was either influenced by or directly written by Freemasons a historical fact that is conveniently glossed over with this in mind we can delve further into the real historical connections behind Dracula
69:30 - 70:00 and then examine how this all ties together okay let's discuss Vlad the Impaler commonly acknowledged as the real Dracula no I'm not going to approach this as other videos or documentaries have as I feel they're missing the alternative history aspect to all this but to begin let's briefly connect Vlad to Dracula and discuss the meaning of Dracula itself the name Dracula derives from the Romanian Dracula meaning son of
70:00 - 70:30 draal vlad's Father vad II was a member of the order of the Dragon a sholic order established to protect Christianity which earned him the title dracul or the dragon thus Vlad III inherited the name linking him directly to the Sinister connotations that would later Inspire Stoker's vampire but is that the only connection linking them this is what we're told about Vlad

82:30 - 83:00 sigismund King of Hungary and later Holy Roman Emperor from 1433 to 1437 it was fashioned after the military orders of the Crusades requiring its initiates to defend the cross and fight the enemies of Christianity in particular the ottoman Turks end quote the society was not an order of dragons but they were the Dragon
83:00 - 83:30 Slayers quote the Edict of 1408 describes two Insignia to be worn by members of the order we and the faithful Barons and magnates of our kingdom shall bear and have and do choose and agree to wear and bear in the manner of society the sign or Effigy Of The Dragon incurved into the form of a circle its ta winding around its neck divided through the middle of its back along its length from the top of its head right to the tip of
83:30 - 84:00 its tail with blood forming a Red Cross flowing out into the interior of the Clift by a white crack Untouched by Blood just as and in the same way that those who fight under the banner of the Glorious martyr St George are accustomed to bury Red Cross on a white field end quot so they were ordered to wear an insignia that depicted a dragon in the shape of a circle being choked by its own tail and on its back it is bleeding
84:00 - 84:30 a Red Cross why the symbolism what does it all mean it would seem that this order of the Dragon is actually a hijack process in which the previous Dragon Empire was taken over destroyed and recycled Vlad is really only seen as a hero Loc everywhere else in Europe he's described as being brutal with his enemies in which they would be
84:30 - 85:00 staked but who were these enemies and were they really Turks this gets into Jesus speaking Arabic and how the previous civilization or Empire was a combination of Christian and Islamic motifs the subject far to extensive to discuss in full detail right now but the entire story of vad fighting off the Turks could be a cover up for the peoples that were there before vad is descended from the house of
85:00 - 85:30 basarab if we look at the coat of arms from the house we can see that it's depicted as a black crow or Raven biting or eating a cross with the staring Crescent off to the side as if it were stealing the cross after watching the video on Jesus Book Arabic you will see how the star and crescent was featured on many early Christian artwork works and there seemed to have been a merging of both belonging to a previous civilization that was
85:30 - 86:00 erased from history the house of dracul also features the star in Crescent why would they use the symbol if they were actively fighting the Ottomans who were known to use this for Islam they say that Vlad the second initially allied with the Ottomans as a vassel to maintain power and then Vlad theii rebeled against the Ottomans and refused tribute it makes more sense that this
86:00 - 86:30 house of Dracula and the Order of the defeated Dragon are actually the hijackers and use dark magic in order to accomplish this this theme is replicated in the story of St George another dragon slayer in this depiction St George is defending Christianity by defeating a dragon that had been requiring the sacrifice of humans until the Saints saved a princess from being eaten on the medieval depictions of this event we see that St George or the Red
86:30 - 87:00 Cross Knight has a white shield in Red Cross the mainstream account will have you believe that it simply symbolizes good over evil but why a dragon again this story seems layered with multiple meanings on one side you have the story being associated with Alchemy St George is The Alchemist while the dragon is the Prima Materia the raw
87:00 - 87:30 chaotic substance that The Alchemist seek to transform the princess symbolizes Divine wisdom or Sophia through her Liberation it signifies the attainment of higher knowledge the battle itself is the alchemical process NE Gro the initial confrontation alido is the purification and the re is the final stage symbolized by the slaying of the dragon and the attainment of the philosopher
87:30 - 88:00 stone well that may be true the other aspect to this is that we have another Alchemist dragon slayer so in a cult order defeating a dragon which typically would symbolize a group of people or even an Empire same with St Patrick's driving out the snakes of Ireland symbolizing the removal of so-called pagans from Ireland here St George has a similar meaning it is Christianity defeating the previous
88:00 - 88:30 culture or what is conveniently labeled as the evil or Pagan ones this is the dragon cian race that was hijacked by the new powers that be let's acknowledge the similarity between the symbol for the order of the dragon and the oroborus used by The Alchemist the only difference is that the dragon is being choked instead of swallowing its own tail and there is a bloody Red Cross while Draco and Latin does indeed
88:30 - 89:00 mean dragon dracul in Romanian actually means the devil so Dracula means son of dra or son of the devil some Modern accountants say he drank the blood of his enemies on at least one occasion and there is a woodcut depicting him feasting while surrounded by victims impaled on stage now remember most people on this subject of Dracula's relationship to Vlad III is
89:00 - 89:30 through the name of his father and how it was bestowed upon him through the order of the Dragon meaning the connection is based on the name dracul alone however there is a clue in Dracula that can help us tie this all together you see the mixup is people are trying to find direct evidence of Vlad III being a vampire as it is discussed in folklore around Europe such as being excommunicated or coming back from the dead to mess with his family or Town's
89:30 - 90:00 folk however what if that is not the connection that stoker was trying to make with Dracula and there's actually another reason he decided to choose that name and connect the famous literary Dracula to vad the Impaler in the novel stoker actually implies how Count Dracula became a vampire there is a part where arminius tells van Hing quote they learned his secrets in the scholomance amongst the mountains over Lake herot where the devil claims the
90:00 - 90:30 10th scholar as his due end quote note that we know that stoker believed Dracula to mean devil he also has the count using the pseudonym of count devil and we read quote the Draculas were says arminius a great and Noble race though now and again where sions who were held by their coevals to have held dealings with the evil one end quote the evidence Stacks up that it was
90:30 - 91:00 at the scholomance that Count Dracula consorted with the devil and I don't think it's a stretch to offer the theory that it is his attendance at the scholomance that was the source of the Count's vampirism but what is these scholomance first we have to talk about Emily Gerald she was a 19th century author who was connected to Roy y best known for her collections of Transylvanian folklore that influenced Stoker's
91:00 - 91:30 Dracula in her book on Transylvanian superstitions there is a section discussing the legend of the scholomance quote I may as well he mention the scholomance or school supposed to exist somewhere in the heart of the mountains and where all the secrets of nature the language of animals and all imaginable magic spells and charms are taught by the devil in person only 10 Scholars are admitted at a time and when the course of learning has expired and nine of them are released to
91:30 - 92:00 return to their homes the 10th scholar is detained by the devil's payment and mounted upon a dragon he becomes hence forward the devil's Aid the camp and assist him in making the weather that is to say preparing the Thunderbolts end quote notice the reference to dragon and the Thunderbolts part could be some olic a way of saying these were the new rulers of the land the Zeus or Thors who would control from
92:00 - 92:30 above this reference directly connects the scholomance to the order of the Dragon which was known for being a group of Alchemist and practitioners of black magic that would mean that Dracula is not connected to Vlad the Impaler just through name but actually because this is the secret history of a lineage of evil Royal Alchemist the real vampires now that we have this secret clue we can further connect how this
92:30 - 93:00 very well is the real connection between Dracula and Vlad and what Dracula actually represents the founder of the order of the Dragon was founded by sigismond of Luxembourg Holy Roman Emperor from 1433 until his death in 1437 while it's not exactly clear whether he was interested in Al or the oul his wife who was also a co-founder of the order was deeply associated with
93:00 - 93:30 Alchemy in Black Magic Barbara Von silly also known as the black queen or the vampire queen was the co-founder of the order of the Dragon in the 15th century she became the queen of Hungary and later the Empress of the Holy Roman Empire due to her marriage to Sigman of Luxembourg she was born around 1390 and was the daughter of the noble family of silly in present day
93:30 - 94:00 Slovenia Barbara inherited a unique genetic marker haplo group T which suggests likely secret Jewish ancestry Barbara had a reputation as an astrologer and Alchemist stanislav ynic described Barbara as the richest female Alchemist of all time and how she used very expensive but easily breakable tools for her experiments such that today there is no remaining evidence and a manuscript that is now
94:00 - 94:30 lost around 1440 the Bohemian Alchemist Johan vanon Laz is said to have reported on their alchemical experiments in the castle above sore where she kept a laboratory in the basement in Croatian focl Barbara is often identified with the figure of the black queen the black queen is described as a lady with long black hair who dressed herself in black there are Dark Legends about black
94:30 - 95:00 queen Barbara that are still widely known today including the queen had many lovers when she did not like them anymore she would throw them over the wall of her castle she was a bird Whisperer who kept a pet Black Raven that would attack people on her command she asked the devil to protect medrad against invading Turks offering her own life to him later she tried to trick the devil but
95:00 - 95:30 failed she has even been portrayed as a lesbian vampire a beautiful one of the traits of older Chronicles and historians agreed about her but nefarious creature this connects back to Carmela and shows that these were not just made up literary devices but secret references by Masons the vampiris stories origin ated at least partly from Piccolo min's account anas Sylvio piccolomini later to
95:30 - 96:00 be elected Pope Pas II chronicled Barbara in his Historia bohemica written in 1458 where he accused her of associating with Heretics and denying the afterlife and claimed that after the death of Albert II Barbara and her daughter Elizabeth used to profane the Holy Communion by drinking real human blood during the Liturgy this would even by modern medical standards qualify Barbara as a
96:00 - 96:30 living vampire Barbara was also accused of maintaining a female herum and staging huge sexual orgies with young girls okay so what we have is that the co-founder of the order of the Dragon was accused in 1458 of denying the afterlife and drinking human blood in ritual fashion this undeniably connects the order of the Dragon to vampirism not the vampires of folklor
96:30 - 97:00 but the secret society esoteric vampires that are hidden from the light there is even a claim that in the Adoration of the Lamb scene in the Gant alterpiece where the lamb is being drained of blood the leader of the female Martyrs at the top right is probably another crypto portrait of the queen now this is a deep Rabbit Hole this is really only the beginning we're about to see what the
97:00 - 97:30 order of the Dragon was really about remember mainstream history says that the order of the Dragon declined after 1437 but that couldn't be further from the truth let's first discuss the connection between the order of the dragon and the rcrs according to Francis Yates and the rosac crucian enlightenment the rosac crucia mov movement was the result of the visit of the English sorcerer John D to Prague in Bohemia under Ferdinand I's grandson
97:30 - 98:00 Emperor Rudolph II grandmas of the Order of the Golden Fleece and a knight of the order of the garer the oul underground had remained invisible until they announced themselves to the world as the order of the rosie cross also known as the rosicrucians the name recalls the Templar knights as well the holy VM tribunal to which belonged Emperor sigismond and whose symbol was a Red
98:00 - 98:30 Cross on a white background the words VM or fem according to gotfried liit the famous scientist in resecretion were derived from f as the law founded on common Fame in contemporary documents the members of the ven were frankly referred to under the name of Rose CRA and quote so what this means is that the rosar crusa movement can be directly tied to the Holy Roman Emperor Rudolph
98:30 - 99:00 II Not only was he Emperor but he was deeply involved in esoteric traditions and was part of multiple orders like the Order of the Golden Fleece and the Order of the garer notably Rudolph was a direct descendant of Emperor seisman the founder of the order of the Dragon which also uses symbolic image imery of the Red Cross similar to the r acution emblem both Rudolph II and Sigman
99:00 - 99:30 belonged to the house of Luxembourg Habsburg Emperor Rudolph II was well known for his obsession with Alchemy and the Occult and he even employed numerous Alchemists and occultists at his court in Prague including figures like John D and Edward Kelly his entire life mission was to find the philosopher stone giving him immortality in Eternal youth Sigman was also a member of the VCT also known as the holy VM which was
99:30 - 100:00 a powerful secret tribunal that operated in medieval Germany particularly west faia from the 13th to 16th centuries its Origins allegedly traced back to charlamagne's conquest of Saxony in 772 ad where it began as a covert organization to suppress paganism members were known as the knowers or the rose qua they used secret signs passwords and
100:00 - 100:30 multiple initiation stages required absolute secrecy from Members even from family it included powerful figures from church and state they conducted ritualistic midnight tribunals in underground locations and had specific symbolic Tools in cabalistic inscriptions but I found this to be extremely strange this order had secret soldiers of light masked men who would nail
100:30 - 101:00 summons to the gates of the castle a noble who would choose to obey the summons would arrive late at night at a designated Place masked men would emerge and place a hood on his head at midnight the hood would be removed and the accused would find himself in a vast underground vault facing the tribunal masked and dressed in black there is a tradition that one of the methods of execution was telling
101:00 - 101:30 the victim to go and kiss the statue of the Virgin a type of Iron Maiden on approaching it its doors would open and the victim was drawn in and closed around him by a secret mechanism before falling through a trap door and being cut to Pieces historical records suggest connections with between the them and other secret societies like the Templars and assassins so they were fighting against
101:30 - 102:00 pagans and yet they were doing rituals underground and were well versed in cabala as mentioned there are notable similarities between the order of the dragon and the knight's Templar particularly their shared emblem of the Red Cross beyond their Marshal Endeavors the Templars were deeply engaged in alchemical studies the idea of protecting Christianity is just a front these orders were all a part of
102:00 - 102:30 the reset and actively participating in oul practices Emperor sigman's connection to the occult don't stop there another fascinating leak is Sigman appears in a gmir titled the book of Auber melon a book that was cherished by the Golden Dawn the earliest existing manuscripts date from 16 8 and are written in German there is an alchemical book by Nicholas Fel published in London in
102:30 - 103:00 1624 as exposition of hieroglyphical figures that claims Fel bought the grimoire in 1357 the book tells the story of an Egyptian Mage named Auber melon who taught a system of magical and cabalistic secrets to Abraham of worms a Jew in worms Germany presumed to have lived from approximately 1362 to 1458 after concluding his studies with
103:00 - 103:30 aerelon Ibraham recounts that he traveled to Hungary and employed his skills to give the emperor sigismund a quote familiar Spirit of the second hierarchy even as he commanded me and he availed himself of its services with Prudence end quote what that means is this Abraham of worms gave Emperor sigismond the leader of the order of the Dragon a familiar Spirit an
103:30 - 104:00 entity that would do different services for the emperor that would be for divining so kind of like an old AI but it could see what was going to happen in the future and watch guard on the property to alert if needed Abraham of worms also confesses to having used magical means to bring about sigman's marriage with his second wife Barbara silly the black queen with whom he co-founded the order of the Dragon in 1408 so now we know that their marriage
104:00 - 104:30 was established through magic and Ault means but not just that this Abraham of worms was an alchemist who was controlling the royal bloodlines and influencing who would inherit the throne but one weird thing that I noticed while I was looking through this book is there's this insane reference inside of it it that's pretty my Bo apparently Abraham of worms summoned 2,000 artificial Calvary to support
104:30 - 105:00 federick the in his war against the hussites and in the footnote it even says he may have slipped up and it was actually 20,000 strange and foreign Warriors who came unexpectedly to range themselves under the standard of Frederick okay so are we talking about cyborgs or some type of lost a itch like the Brazen Head using Ault magic it could be that or some type of army of the
105:00 - 105:30 undead now let's discuss the ba family and how it's connected to the order of the dragon and descends from Emperor sigismond sigman's daughter was Elizabeth of Luxembourg who was a line of succession leading to Steven ba marrying into the lineage many Hungarian noble families such as B retained the emblem of the order of the Dragon on their coat of arms and there is even a legend which places the origin
105:30 - 106:00 of B to the year 900 it tells of a God-fearing Warrior called vus who set out to fight a dragon which dwelt in the swamps next to the castle of ited vas killed it with three thrust of his Lance and received the castle as a reward The Grateful people honored him with the names ba meaning good hero and animus Magnus apparently the bathy Cod of arms was styled in reference to this Legend
106:00 - 106:30 three horizontally placed teeth surrounded by a dragon biting its own tail Steven B was also responsible for financing the experiments of John D and was deeply interested in the oul Arts Steven B has an ancestor named Steven the bathy from a century before him who was in Alliance with Vlad the Impaler to help him reclaim the velian throne in 1476 Steven bathy from the 16th century
106:30 - 107:00 was the uncle of Elizabeth a known as The Blood Countess and is regarded as the worst female seral killer in history who was said to bathe in the blood of young virgins to retain her youth through her family Elizabeth was exposed to the occult in Black Magic from an early age her uncle was a professed Alchemist and practitioner of black magic Elizabeth's Aunt Clara ba a
107:00 - 107:30 distinguished lady at the court was reputed to be a witch and lesbian to make matters worse her nurse from childhood Elona Yu who was one of those arrested for these crimes in 1610 was steeped in the practice of black magic that reportedly required the sacrifice of children for their bones and blood apparently she had a manservant named thorco who introduced her to the
107:30 - 108:00 occult during the start of the 1600s when she was 40 years old and her husband died she grew increasingly Vain and feared the thought of aging and losing her beauty it is said that she was extremely beautiful and spent hours of her day admiring herself in the mirrors by this time she had already dabbled in forms of sorcery and Witchcraft working with two witches named Dara and dorocha with some claiming she had attended rituals that
108:00 - 108:30 included the sacrificing of horses and other animals however it was about to get much worse so this stuff is about to get pretty horrifying so just a warning before we move any further one day a servant girl accidentally pulled Elizabeth's hair while combing it Elizabeth slapped the girl's hand so hard she drew blood the girl's blood fell into Elizabeth's hand and she immediately
108:30 - 109:00 thought her skin took on the freshness of her young maid supposedly this is how she discovered that this was the way to Eternal youth Elizabeth had her accomp major Domo and thorco stripped the maid and cut her and drain her blood into a huge vat then Elizabeth bathed in it to beautify her her entire body Elizabeth began hosting large orgastic occult sessions during which
109:00 - 109:30 she and her servants would torture the chambermaids Elizabeth's servants were known to circulate in a black Carriage with its black horses through the village each night to lure young victims back to the castle for the next 10 years Elizabeth had her henchmen provide her with new young girls for these blood draining rituals in her blood baths there's even a claim that she went out of her way to see to it that these girls had proper Christian burials by a local
109:30 - 110:00 pastor at least initially but the pastor refused because he started to catch on that there was so many girls being brought to him dying from unknown and mysterious causes not sure about the burial part because why would someone so evil care about that but she then started disposing of the body secretly to keep this practice hidden sometime in 1610 one of her intended victims actually escaped and
110:00 - 110:30 told the authorities about what was happening at the castle the governor of the province was ordered to raid the castle on December 30th and they discovered some terrible sites there was a dead girl in the main room drained of blood another alive whose body was pierced with holes and the dungeon they discovered more living girls whose bodies had been pierced several times and below the castle they found the bodies of over 50
110:30 - 111:00 girls a trial was held and Elizabeth refused to plead guilty or innocent and never even showed up to the trial however her accomplices were forced to testify major Domo testified that about 37 unmarried girls had been killed six of whom he had personally recruited to work at the castle the trials revealed that most of the girls were tortured for weeks or even months they were cut with scissors
111:00 - 111:30 pricked with pins and even pted with burning irons into short spikes in a cage hung from a ceiling to provide Elizabeth with a blood shower during her sex orgies the trial showed in fact that Elizabeth killed over 62 women and in her diary she documented these deaths a complete transcript of the trial was made and it still survives today in Hungary everyone involved was beheaded
111:30 - 112:00 except for Elizabeth and the two witches as it was against the law for nobility to be executed so she was put on house arrest and sentenced to life imprisonment where stone masons were instructed to wall up the windows and doors locking herself inside another serial killer connected to royalty was X who somehow manages to outshine Elizabeth b a war hero who fought alongside Jon of
112:00 - 112:30 Arc and earned Fame for helping liberate Orleans during the Hundred Years War he then carried out some of the most sickening crimes in history he's labeled as one of the worst criminals of all time accumulating between 600 to 800 victims though some sources suggest the number could be higher his victims were primarily young children and peasants from the surrounding Villages of his castle after depleting his fortune XI
112:30 - 113:00 became obsessed with Alchemy and black magic believing it would restore his wealth he built Laboratories in his Castle's wing and hired Alchemists from across Europe including Francois pradi and anonia D pero his methods were particularly brutal children would be lured into his castle with Promises of food or work then tortured and killed in his private
113:00 - 113:30 Chambers many victims were sexually assaulted before death and their bodies were often mutilated as a part of ritualistic Ceremonies not only that but apparently he would eat their flush one of the reasons he's remembered as a Medieval vampire the murders appear directly tied to these occult practices according to trial documents X's first ritual murder involved dismembering a child removing organs and offering them
113:30 - 114:00 to Demons the blood was used to write magical formulas and conduct ceremonies bodies were arranged in specific ritual patterns and parts were preserved for future rights his servants testified that he would read from a cult text during these killings and often time them to align with satanic calendars and festivals his trial in 1440 brought forth extensive evidence of his ult
114:00 - 114:30 activities the court discovered gmars ritual tools and alchemical equipment in his castle multiple Witnesses described black masses and demons summoning ceremonies GI himself confessed to attempting to make packs with demons named Baron and orian believing they would Grant him knowledge power and gold he was executed by hanging and burning on October 26th 1440 along with
114:30 - 115:00 two of his servants despite his crimes he showed extreme remorse at his execution asking forgiveness from the parents of his victims and requesting a Christian burial well for some reason I doubt that he was truly sorry if there were really 800 victims or more but what are the implications of this level of ritual murder and vampirism in the early 15th century the scale and sophistication of
115:00 - 115:30 ritualistic murders by Nobles like X Dar and Elizabeth B points to organized a cult knowledge among medieval European Elites these weren't just random acts both cases show specific ritual patterns alchemical knowledge and similar victim selection the detailed grimoire ceremonies and black magic practices found in Jill's Castle required extensive
115:30 - 116:00 study considering the limited access to writ materials in the 15th century and the church's strict control of information these Nobles likely gained their ult knowledge through secret aristocratic networks the fact that both hired multiple experts in Black Magic and Alchemy suggest an underground network of practitioners while his confession may have been genuine 800 plus victims indicates this went far beyond one man's
116:00 - 116:30 Madness it points to an established tradition of dark practices among medieval nobility there are some original members of the order of the dragon that we didn't discuss who also had a deep obsession with Alchemy and the aole such as Stefan lazarovich the tall known for patronizing Scholars and maintaining a library containing alchemical and astrological text he's references having an early reference to the Basilisk in one of his
116:30 - 117:00 poems which is deeply associated with Alchemy and Herman II of silly Barbara or the black Queen's father was also known to have extensive libraries on astrology and Alchemy let's not forget Vlad III himself as we can see secret symbolism in one of his portraits there is one portrait in particular that has gained a lot of interest which depicts astrological symbolism on his crown or cloth headband indicating that
117:00 - 117:30 he was well versed in the occult and mystical Arts there is an article that discusses how the diadem itself contains precise astronomical symbolism related to Venus Earth conjunctions the topaz gym in a square setting represents the 730 day conjunctions while the five large symbolized the pentagram pattern created by Venus's 584 day orbital cycle the 8 pointed golden star mirrors
117:30 - 118:00 an ancient Sumerian symbol for Venus completing the Crown's astronomical significance this symbolism links Vlad to ancient esoteric Traditions implying his association with a school or order where this knowledge was venerated it becomes clear that the order of the Dragon was Far More Than A mission to protect Christianity it served as a vehicle for safeguarding Arcane Secrets accessible only to an elite few some of which
118:00 - 118:30 abused his power if the order of the Dragon wasn't a Christian military order then what was it it would appear that it was a secret society of Alchemists or the scholomance the school of Solomon in which once initiated one would be bestowed title of dragon these were the new dragons or the Dragon Slayers who replaced the previous Dragon Empire through their use of dark
118:30 - 119:00 magic not only were they in a cult order but the order of the Dragon was one of the primary power structures controlling Europe after the reset through strategic marriages and overlapping memberships of other prestigious orders such as the order of the golden flee and garter these Nobles maintained control across the continent while appearing to operate as separate kingdoms what history recorded as independent Royal courts was actually a
119:00 - 119:30 carefully coordinated web of power their reach extended from Spain through southern Italy across the Holy Roman Empire and even into England this wasn't just about territorial control it was about creating an invisible network of aligned interests that could shape European politics while appearing to be natural Rivals this sheds light on why stoker would have linked Dracula to Vlad the Impaler it was more than just because of
119:30 - 120:00 the name dragon and his reputation for being a brutal leader gram stoker was a close friend and Associate of the Welsh Golden Dawn magician and writer author Mackin who wrote numerous Works including a paper on the alchemical significance of the dragon and a novel on the tooth tag the fair is of Wales it has been suggested that stoker was a member of the OT or the Golden Dawn it's not a stretch to conclude that
120:00 - 120:30 stoker must have had access to a source of esoteric information far more informed in historical and alchemical terms than the folklore of Romanian peasants or contemporary literary sources this would explain why Dracula connected to Transylvania as historical accounts tell us vad III was the prince of vasia Dracula is associated with Transylvania because stoker is telling us the origin of this Elite vampirism which involves
120:30 - 121:00 ancient occult riots let's not forget that he was a Master Mason and while many tend to believe that Freemason spawned out of nowhere in the 18th century its Origins go back to the rosac crucians and then before that other shal orders such as the Templars and the Order of the Dragon Freemasonry even has an Ode to this in their degrees as the rose CRA is the 18th degree of the Scottish right now we can understand that the
121:00 - 121:30 origins of the literary vampire is based on the real vampire a secret tradition of elite occult blood rituals pass through corrupted Bloodlines that seek immortality and eternal youth through the philosopher stone the oroborus a serpent or Dragon devouring its tail represents endless continuity in the unbroken cycle of life and death the entire Pursuit Of The Alchemist was to discover the philosopher stone a legendary substance
121:30 - 122:00 believed to transmute base Metals into gold however Beyond material wealth the philosopher stone was also thought to Grant immortality by producing the elixir of Life capable of Rejuvenation and prolonging life in all early literary works of the vampire they are referenced with being associated with with royalty the reason vampires cannot go into the light is because this is an esoteric secret reserved for those in
122:00 - 122:30 the order vampirism being spread after a bite is a reference into recruiting more initiates into the order stoker mixed this secret esoteric right with the folklore Supernatural vampires which while they both are a real phenomena they are two different things they are connected however these rights began with ancient blood magic practiced by Noble Bloodlines in a sacred and disciplined
122:30 - 123:00 manner distinct from the corrupted forms seen in later times the blood of a princess offered willingly and born of deep love for the one performing the ritual served as a bridge between Realms the Act was not an act of taking but of sheer transformation symbolizing the union of energies to achieve a higher state of being this blood magic was a practice of elevating Consciousness fostering a collective awareness that transcended
123:00 - 123:30 individual barriers by merging their Essences participants created a form of shared mind a hiveel Consciousness that enhanced understanding empathy and unity within the group this interconnected state was not about domination but about harmonizing with the underlying Matrix of life aligning their Spirits with a universal order that wo all existence together it may seem strange but this practice has even made its way into
123:30 - 124:00 Christian rights which all of you might be quite familiar with the wine of the Eucharist symbolically transformed into the blood of Christ is consumed by the faithful as an act of unity with their savior this is similar to ancient blood rituals where consuming blood real or symbolic was believed to transfer power life force or Divine Essence from one being to another the implications of this are profound by drinking the blood of their
124:00 - 124:30 God Christians participate in a ritual that at its core Bears similarities to ancient oul practices it signifies a merging of the Divine IM mortal Realms where the essence of a higher being is eternalized to create a closer connection to the sacred the ACT is the essence of blood magic transformation Unity and elevation of consciousness through shared Essence while Christianity has distanced itself from associations with the cult
124:30 - 125:00 the symbolic consumption of divine blood can be viewed as a deeply mystical act it wasn't until greed and selfish desire for power came into play that this practice became corrupted and grew into a dark art among the elites once the bloodline became tainted and the battle for rulership began a rediscovery of ancient mysticism began often leading to dark Avenues to the desire to have power this means that jaula is a subtle
125:00 - 125:30 reference to the elite practicing a corrupted form of blood magic to give themselves power and longer lifespans but that is not the only reference in Dracula there is the mysterious bluefur lady Lucy Weston's Undead Persona who prays on children the term bloofer lady likely a child's mispronunciation of beautiful depicts Lucy's deceptive nature in this new form she lures
125:30 - 126:00 children away with maternal charm only to feed on their blood this is hinting at a darker side of the story that mirrors real world exploitation stoker introduces the bler lady through fictional news articles in the Westminster Gazette which resemble real life journalistic accounts of abuse and child exploitation from his time notably WT stad a journalist and
126:00 - 126:30 friend of stoker published exposes on these subjects including accounts of how children were lured by seemingly trustworthy figures offering gifts or promises only to be taken advantage of stoker may have been using the symbolism of the blue for lady to subtly expose Hidden Truths about exploitation and abuse cloaking these themes in the guise of fiction the ability for vampires to fly is another interesting reference
126:30 - 127:00 connected to the ult this is highlighted in the new nose for auu movie where hutter's wife experiences visions and dreams of the vampire one of the abilities possessed by Elite Alchemist is the power to asro project their body in leech onto others energy fields in some cases depending on their strength they can even manifest physically whether as Shadows or through physical signs like scratches or bite
127:00 - 127:30 marks this is a skill wielded by Advanced occultist those with disciplined mental faculties can latch onto another person simply by Will alone especially if their target lacks protection or is in a vulnerable state of consciousness while I'm not recommending engaging in such practices as it's important to understand how simple this technique can be in order to protect oneself there are many forms and levels
127:30 - 128:00 to this kind of psychic vampirism for example if someone wanted to harness the energies of others they could go into a crowd where energy is being misused and through visualization alone absorb it it's worth noting that balanced individuals who generate their own energy have no need for such practices as feeding on the energy of others is a reflection of a lower state of mind yet many in the modern day lack spiritual protection making them
128:00 - 128:30 susceptible all it would take is someone with Advanced visualization techniques such as imagining astral tentacles reaching out to absorb energy from an intended victim to drain energy and transfer it to themselves again I strongly discourage this depending on others for energy in this way is a sign of weakness but it illustrates the power of visualization and what some dark occultists practice how do you protect yourself
128:30 - 129:00 against astral vampires there are different methods and the most vulnerable targets are often those in a state of trauma or emotional distress those who are balanced and fully aligned with their personal path are typically immune to such attacks there are many types of energy energy vampires but the solution is universal maintain a strong internal energy State and cultivate a sense of balance and
129:00 - 129:30 well-being some achieve this by connecting to a higher power which is one of the most common and effective defenses others might focus on strengthening their energetic field through visualization techniques such as imagining a protective barrier surrounding their energetic body just as a psychic vampire can will the absorption of your energy you can will the protection and balance of your own energy a far more powerful approach than relying on others for
129:30 - 130:00 sustenance with this understanding we can piece together the entire nature of the vampire through its three main manifestations the folkloric vampire the literary vampire and the psychic vampire the folkloric vampire is a creature of nature most commonly associated with the Restless Dead or the excommunicated a spirit after dying becomes trapped in limbo within the etheric realm where its unstable psyche
130:00 - 130:30 transforms it into a monster this leads to the creation of an entirely new being one that feeds on the energies of loved ones to prevent itself from dissipating completely thereby sustaining the body for a temporary period these manifestations are not limited to humans as unruly Spirits can also attach themselves to people as seen with the suabbi and incubi the literary vampire on the other hand was invented by Masons and those
130:30 - 131:00 with esoteric knowledge spanning centuries it represents the elites who practice corrupted blood magic to achieve immortality it also symbolizes royalty's secret knowledge of the oul kept hidden from the masses such as their ability to astral project for certain rights and rituals this may sound far-fetched but historical accounts lend credibility to such claims for instance the Ben andon a
131:00 - 131:30 16th century agrarian Visionary tradition in Italy were referred to as the good Walkers these were said to be benevolent witches who claimed they could leave their bodies while asleep to battle malevolent witches in the astral realm who are ruining crops and spreading disease and interestingly the Ben and danty were said to possess this ability because they were born with a call on their head Elizabeth B herself was known to
131:30 - 132:00 keep a call for its occult Powers the call has a long history in the occult regarded as a Talisman with mystical properties practitioners would often dry and preserve it for years if not decades to harness its powers let's not forget the account of St Germain While most have heard of him in one often overlooked detail is his claim to have been the son of Francis II rotti the prince of Transylvania Francis was a member of the
132:00 - 132:30 Order of the Golden Fleece and his ancestors were connected to the order of the Dragon St Germaine's immense wealth could be attributed to his family who were among the wealthiest and hungry but both his fortune and his eternally youthful appearance could be also linked to his Mastery of alchemy the roty family as initiates of the order of the Dragon not only acquired wealth and status but also knowledge of
132:30 - 133:00 alchemical practices and the dragon symbol that adorned their family crest for those unfamiliar with St Germain he's this mysterious historical figure not a legend because there's numerous historical accounts that document his existence and he associated with prominent figures of his time such as kasanova voler and mosar St Germain was said to be 500 years old earning him the title Wonderman from voler who described him
133:00 - 133:30 as a man who does not die and knows everything a well-known Alchemist St Germaine reportedly never ate in public spoke several languages fluently and appeared surprisingly youthful he was said to have been born in 1691 and continued to make documented appearances into to the early 20th century but one of the most intriguing accounts comes from New Orleans according to the story St Germaine moved to New Orleans in 1902
133:30 - 134:00 earning a reputation for hosting lavish dinner parties that entertain the city's aristocracy strangely despite serving extravagant meals he was never seen partaking in the food known as a regular in the French Quarter he frequented bars nightly to me young women one night screams were heard coming from St Germaine's home after he brought a woman back from the bar the woman ran out and begged for
134:00 - 134:30 help claiming she had been attacked witness is noted B marks on her neck and when the police searched St Germaine's home they reportedly found blood stains and wine bottles filled with blood but St Germaine was nowhere to be found I'll go into AER am vampires in another video since that's the topic worth its own discussion but this story is worth bringing up it seems clear that vampires and
134:30 - 135:00 Alchemist share a deep connection both seeking Eternal youth through their practices now let's explore how these connections have evolved into the modern day many of you have probably heard that several US presidents are said to be descended from Vlad the Impaler also known as Dracula even King Charles has publicly acknowledged his descent from Vlad and owns multiple properties in Transylvania as he is the heir to this Dragon
135:00 - 135:30 bloodline this claim has been fact checked even by Snopes and found to be true some of you might remember the unveiling of King Charles portrait which caused a lot of controversy but why many say that it appears Sinister or demonic perhaps symbolically referencing being soaked in blood Queen Elizabeth II also shares distant ancestry with Vlad the Impaler
135:30 - 136:00 through her grandmother Mary of tech who was descended from two of vlad's sons interestingly several celebrities are also rumored to have ties to Vlad for instance Robert patternson known for playing Edward in Twilight is ironically said to be distantly related to the Impaler himself it is also possible that Johnny Depp is a distant relative of vad the
136:00 - 136:30 Impaler several references online suggest that Depp shares an ancestor with Queen Elizabeth II which would make Mary of tech a shared connection I'm not stating this as fact but an article in Forbes referencing Vogue notes quote the house of wisor from which Queen Elizabeth II and King Charles III or descended has several distant ties to Hollywood actress Hillary Duff is the late Queen's 18th cousin and both
136:30 - 137:00 Beyonce and actor Johnny Depp are 20th cousins Ralph bines most famous for his role as Lord Voldemort in the Harry Potter films is the eighth cousin of King Charles according to Vogue end quote this is particularly intriguing because Depp has portrayed several vampire-like characters in his career such as Barnabas and Dark Shadows even his role as Sweeney Todd could be Loosely connected given its cannibalistic and blood soaked
137:00 - 137:30 themes however the most bizarre connection lies in his role In Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas where there's a scene involving Gonzo claims to have obtained the substance from a Satanist and when Deb's character takes it he experiences a psychedelic trip filled with visions of a demon in an altered state of consciousness interestingly this substance is mentioned by Aldis Huxley where he Compares its effects to the symptoms of masculine
137:30 - 138:00 intoxication it's also referenced in A Clockwork Orange where the characters drink drug laced milk spiked with a substance called now I'm not here to dive into theories about the topic but rather to point out the similarities there are more subtle references worth noting like with Monsters Inc for example what is that movie really about monsters enter through doorways into another realm to collect fear which
138:00 - 138:30 Powers their world what is this fear could it be connected to on the surface it's just a cute kids movie but there are some unsettling underlying themes that hint at a much darker reality we can also see this in the Dark Crystal the skis are this cruel and tyrannical Elite race that maintain their youth and Power by draining the life Essence from
138:30 - 139:00 other beings particularly the peaceful podlings this process involving strange alchemical machinery and rituals are referencing energy extraction in ult practices the essence once drained is consumed by the skis to rejuvenate themselves they are literal vampires that require a dark and parasitic Reliance on the Vitality of others why would a kid's film have this strange focus on these life trining rituals is
139:00 - 139:30 beyond M but there's no doubt that it contains esoteric symbolism and alchemical concepts of Life Extension through unnatural means same for Hocus Pocus another familyfriendly film where three witches known as the Sanderson sisters seek to achieve immortality by absorbing the life essence of children they concoct a potion to drain the youth from their victims again referencing the idea of Life Force extraction and dark magic in Coraline the other mother lures
139:30 - 140:00 Coraline into a magical world and tries to trap her there she feeds on the lives of children stealing their Essence to sustain her perfect illusionary world she is a malevolent interspatial shape-shifting witch Fay entity who lures children into another Dimension with the goal of consuming their flesh for strength and keeping their souls as for prisoners the entire story of Tangled is a about a witch he uses a magical flower
140:00 - 140:30 in order to retain youth for hundreds of years when the flower's power is transferred to Rapunzel mother gothal keeps Rapunzel locked away to maintain her youth by extracting her energy using Rapunzel's hair another reference to Life Force extraction the are many more references in popular culture but another interesting aspect to this is there are a bunch of Articles and videos discussing how many celebrities don't
140:30 - 141:00 age at all or even a Buzzfeed video that claims these celebrities might be vampires in a trolly fashion but it is interesting to see what all the comments say even Jared letto when asked what was his secret to being so young supposedly responded with this sure maybe it's just a joke but just a weird thing to joke about like I said this Rabbit Hole goes much deeper but I prefer to keep these
141:00 - 141:30 things historical I just wanted to point out a few references in popular culture to this type of ult practice especially in familyfriendly films and even bring up the idea that it's still very possible that these real vampires are living among us that's for you to decide but regardless it seems clear that these were not only real entities throughout history but this practice has been secretly preserved through the literary
141:30 - 142:00 vampire and all its later derivations I'll leave it at that if you enjoyed the video please like subscribe and share with your friends we will go into the American vampires in another video so please stay tuned thanks for watching and all we can hope is that our minds may be unveiled let go of everything you think to be true relax the mind and ask the
142:00 - 142:30 question do I truly understand what this reality is
