Introduction
Dracula Run is a delightfully spooky and endlessly addictive endless runner game starring everyone's favourite creature of the night — Count Dracula himself! The sun is rising fast over Transylvania and the Count is still far from his castle. Sprint through eerie gothic landscapes, dodge deadly obstacles, leap over crumbling tombstones, and duck under low-flying bats as you help Dracula race home before the first rays of sunlight turn him to dust! The further you run, the faster the pace becomes, and the more relentless the hazards grow — creating an intense and atmospheric survival experience wrapped in a charmingly gothic visual style. Collect blood vials scattered along the route to boost your score and unlock powerful bonus items that give Dracula the edge he needs to outrun the dawn. Simple one-tap controls, escalating speed, and an endless appetite for "just one more run" make Dracula Run an irresistibly fun browser game — completely free and playable instantly on any device!
How to Play
Dracula sprints forward automatically — your job is to keep him alive long enough to make it home before sunrise. Jump over obstacles on the ground, slide under those hanging from above, and navigate the increasingly hectic gothic course as the speed ramps up with every passing second. Collect glowing blood vials along the path to earn bonus points and fill your power meter. When the power meter is full, activate Dracula's vampire dash to temporarily become invincible and blast through obstacles at terrifying speed. Survive as long as possible and post the highest score before the sunlight finally catches the Count!

Tips to Win
- Look ahead of Dracula rather than directly at him — anticipation beats reaction at high speeds
- Prioritise collecting blood vials in clusters — they fill your Vampire Dash meter much faster
- Save your Vampire Dash for sections with dense obstacle clusters rather than using it immediately
- Learn the difference between jumpable and slideable obstacles early — mixing them up is the most common cause of death
- Keep a consistent rhythm — panicking and breaking your jump timing always ends runs prematurely
- As speed increases, reduce your reaction window by starting jumps and slides slightly earlier than feels natural
