Carfax Abbey is a fictional property purchased by which literary character?

Count Dracula is the title character of Bram Stoker's 1897 gothic horror novel "Dracula". He is considered to be both the prototypical and the archetypal vampire in subsequent works of fiction. He is also depicted in the novel to have been the origin of werewolf legends. Some aspects of the character are believed to have been inspired by the 15th-century Wallachian Prince Vlad the Impaler, who was also known as Dracula, and by Sir Henry Irving, an actor for whom Stoker was a personal assistant.

Carfax Abbey is the estate purchased by Dracula in both the book and the revised adaptations. In the novel, Carfax is located in Purfleet, just north of central London. Its location in movies varies but is usually located somewhere in southern England.

Carfax Abbey is not real, but is based on Whitby Abbey in Yorkshire, England.
