This probably argues against ENTJ.)
• Was an effective, strong and determined military leader (This best fits the ENTJ
Fieldmarshal, but again, we must note that Dracula received his position from hereditary
succession.)
• Seems to have kept himself and his possessions neat to some extent; he brought along
hygiene supplies to his new house. (J)
"There were title deeds of the Piccadilly house in a great bundle, deeds of the purchase of the houses
at Mile End and Bermondsey, notepaper, envelopes, and pens and ink. All were covered up in thin
wrapping paper to keep them from the dust. There were also a clothes brush, a brush and comb, and
a jug and basin. The latter containing dirty water which was reddened as if with blood."
• Planned ahead in great detail when prosecuting a new enterprise (Deliberate, meticulous
preparation argue for J, especially SJ)
“[Dracula] went on to ask about the means of making consignments and the forms to be gone
through, and of all sorts of difficulties which might arise, but by forethought could be guarded
against. I explained all these things to him to the best of my ability, and he certainly left me under
the impression that he would have made a wonderful solicitor, for there was nothing that he did not
think of or foresee.”

"Everything had been carefully thought out, and done systematically and with precision. He
[Dracula] seemed to have been prepared for every obstacle which might be placed by accident in the
way of his intentions being carried out. To use an Americanism, he had 'taken no chances', and the
absolute accuracy with which his instructions were fulfilled was simply the logical result of his
care."
---
"...He [Dracula] have long since conceive the idea of coming to a great city. What does he do? He
find out the place of all the world most of promise for him. Then he deliberately set himself down to
prepare for the task."
• His efforts at conquest were characterized by repeated persistence and endurance (J favored
over P)
• "The Count is a criminal and of criminal type. Nordau and Lombroso would so classify him,
and qua criminal he is of an imperfectly formed mind. Thus, in a difficulty he has to seek
resource in habit." [Emphasis mine.] (Habitual behaviors are a J trait.)
• "Then, as he is criminal he is selfish. And as his intellect is small and his action is based on
selfishness, he confines himself to one purpose. That purpose is remorseless." (Intense,
prolonged focus on one goal is more characteristic of NTJs than NTPs, though not because
of small intellect or selfishness.)
Evidence Against INTJ:
• Chatted for hours at a stretch with Jonathan Harker. (Loquacity argues weakly for E, but, he
was also trying to practice his English.)
• Glib, suave, and verbally persuasive (Argues for ENTP most of all Rationals, INTJ least of
all Rationals)
• “A table in the centre was littered with English magazines and newspapers, though none of
them were of very recent date [emphasis mine].” (Mess points weakly towards P)
• “[Dracula’s possessions] lay in a sort of orderly disorder on the great dining room table.”
