Dracul: A origem de um monstro

The novel blends real history with fiction in a compelling way. I'm curious if this approach was planned from the start or developed during writing.

The detailed descriptions create a haunting mood, but I wondered if they might make the story feel a bit slow at times. Was this intentional to build tension?

Balancing history and fiction can be tricky—what guided the choices about what to keep authentic or change for narrative effect?
