    I hear he was a quite person.  Always kept to himself.

    Are you sure?  None of his neighbors said he was quiet (they say he was always "disturbing the peace").  However, they did say he was quite.  {‘Quite what’ were not sure, as that’s all his neighbors said before they “mysteriously disappeared”.}

    Are you sure about that? Word on the street's that he liked having lots of bodies around.

    Based on the paintings I have seen of him he was a tortured soul.  Very sad.

      I guess so; he was the kind of guy who put people up on pedestals. Hey, wait . . .

      He made sure they were pillars of the community. Hey, wait, I keep doing that.

    The strangest question you have ever asked. Are you sure you have recovered?

      He believed in face recognition, I hear.

    I wouldn't think so with all those stinking rotting human bodies hanging around in the neighborhood.

    Pretty sure he had people to take care of little things like that.

    Nah.. Vlad would sit outside his residence enjoying the sight of all those impaled bodies as well as the stench that came with it.  His new butler came out bringing his supper and remarked "why not come inside to enjoy your meal, sir away from this horrible stench?"
    Vlad immediately had the offending butler impaled.

    Probably not, but that's never stopped the producers of textbooks before.

     He held large feasts for many people.

    Of course the guests could not leave.

    Why would anyone want to with the fine entertainment provided?

      How personally personal: a separate spit for each dinner guest.
