Robert Eggers’ remake of the 1922 horror based on Bram Stoker’s Dracula novel landed on the big screen in the UK on New Year’s Day. Applauded by critics, the gothic tale has been dubbed the best horror film of the year and has made a splash with audiences too, making over $100 million worldwide at the box office so far.

The haunting world of Nosferatu was shot mostly in Prague, but other Eastern European locations were also used, with gothic castles setting the scene for Count Orlok’s lair. But while the film’s fictional town of Wisborg and the nearby castle appear as hell on earth, the real-life locations are heaven for tourists, from medieval architecture to folkloric history.
