They flock to 900-year-old St Marys in Whitby, North Yorks, where Dracula arrives from Transylvania in Bram Stokers 1897 novel.

Visitors to the church are greeted by a sign saying: Please do not ask staff where Draculas grave is as there isnt one. Thank you.

A leaflet also warns: Sorry its not here! In fact, its not anywhere because Dracula is fiction.
