Thousands were often impaled at a single time. Ten thousand were impaled in the Transylvanian city of Sibiu (where Vlad had once lived) in 1460. In 1459, on St. Bartholomew's Day, Vlad had thirty thousand of the merchants and boyars of the Transylvanian city of Brasov impaled.
He also impaled 600 merchants from Bohemia at a market-square. He did all this in an atmosphere of festivity. Vlad was called âthe impalerâ by the Ottomans, âthe butcherâ by his own Vlachs, and âdrakul (demon)â by the Hungarians.
