An evil vampire who, with his servant, the infamous monster created by Dr. Victor Frankenstein, sought to kill psychic Cassandra Craft in February 1980. After Superman's intervention thwarted their initial attempt, Dracula set his sights on Superman, explaining to his mute companion, "Superman is powerful, true—but I think he would die from my bite as surely as any lesser foe!" He then added, "His blood will give me even greater power! I need fear the stake no more!"

In their final confrontation, Superman stunned Dracula by creating a miniature sun by applying super-pressure and heat vision to a hydrogen-filled balloon. Before the battle could resume, the Phantom Stranger appeared and caused Dracula and the Frankenstein Monster to disappear—explaining only, "They have been returned to the only world where they truly belong—the world of nightmare!" (S No. 344, Feb 1980: "The Monsters Among Us!").

In June 1974, Captain Thunder battles Monster League of Evil which includes its own Dracula-like being from Earth-T (S No. 276, Jun. 1974: "Make Way for Captain Thunder!").

In June 1961, Bizarro Junior creates a a memorial to famous monsters which is based on the Mount Rushmore National Memorial which includes the faces of the Frankenstein Monster, Witch-Queen, Wolf Man and of course Dracula (Adv. No. 285, Jun 1961: "The Shame of the Bizarro Family!").

In 2002, Clark, Lois and Jimmy head to Translyvania to report on a story. Ideally, Dracula has his sights set on Lois, but before Dracula can get to her, Clark intervines. This causes Dracula to then go after Clark. He works his magic spell on Clark, which makes Clark stand perfectly still. Then Dracula takes a big bite into Clark's neck. Little did Dracula know that Superman is a living solar battery and Clark's blood is infused with sunlight. Long story short, Dracula basically takes a big bite out of the sun by going after Clark and dies. (Superman #180: Superman vs. Dracula)
