About this quest

In the heart of Bucharest, an old mystery stirs once more. 

At Manuc’s Inn, a solitary German traveler hands you a journal—his family’s legacy, filled with cryptic entries and strange sightings. His ancestor? Vlad the Impaler… or perhaps, Count Dracula himself. As you walk through the streets of the city, solving puzzles and decoding clues, the line between legend and truth begins to blur. Could Dracula still walk among us? 

This real-world adventure leads you through hidden corners and historical landmarks, offering a thrilling experience to share with friends or family. Lace up your boots, open the journal, and follow the trail. The truth awaits—if you dare to find it.

The mission: Your story in Bucharest

You have always enjoyed mysteries.

Therefore, while you entered the courtyard of Manuc’s Inn, the image of the lonely elderly man sitting alone at a table in the corner immediately catches your eye. He seems foreign, an impression confirmed once you approach him.

His name is Antoine Robert Siegel, a German, but descended from the Saxons of Transylvania. He is searching for one of his ancestors, who once ruled these lands and is … still alive. He hands you a copy of his family’s journal, where the avatars of this enigmatic character are mentioned.

At first glance, you realize who this man once was: Vlad the Impaler, the Prince of Wallachia or … Count Dracula. But why is this old German searching for him?
