At the time when the word "vampire" first appeared in records, Transylvania (meaning "the land behind the forests" in Latin), the central area of today's Romania, was settled by Slavs and Hungarians. Firstly it was part of Dacian lands, but then the Romans conquered it in 106 AD and held it until 271 AD, when they had to abandon it due to Gothic (a group of Germanic tribes) pressure. It had never been completely romanized, so it was easy for the Goths to settle there. The Goths were then pretty ruined by the Huns (a Turkic tribe) in the 5th century, so their land could be heavily settled by migrating masses of Slavs in the 6th century, after Hun armies had long been gone. Small groups of Turkic peoples such as the Avars, the Pechenegs and the Cumans also inhabited the lands, but the first great migration after the Slavic one were the Bulgarians (who were originally a nomadic Turkic tribe) in the 7th century, albeit they, despite being mighty militarily, weren't numerous, and although they defeated the local Slavic farmers militarily, they were gradually conquered by the Slavs culturally. The Hungarian (another tribe of Turkic origin) migration in the 10th century was greater, and Transylvania was part of Hungary in the Middle Ages. Romanians, or Vlachs, as the local Slavs called them (originally a Germanic term for peoples of Roman or Celtic origin), are remnants of the Romans who had once lived there, but mostly in the lands south of the Danube. A part of them lived in the mountains around Transylvania, hidden from the barbarians who had stolen their lands, but the greater part migrated from the Balkan peninsula (Transylvania, geographically, isn't part of it). Dracula's first name, Vlad, is Slavic. "Vladar" means "ruler, sovereign, monarch" in Serbian. "Vladati" means "to rule, to reign, to govern". The Roman (Latin) word for it is "imperare, regere".

The Romanians indeed aren't Slavic people, but today's Romania had a larger population of Slavs and Hungarians at the time, than of Romanians (or Vlachs). I think the state changed only in the times of Osman Turkish domination. If you divide and conquer, you support the weakest of your enemies. About ~90% of Romanian citizens today identify themselves as Romanians.

East slavic mythology is actually having a thing called upyr' (упырь) aka bloodsucker which is a ghoul drinking blood. Undead thing that is rising from the grave at night etc. story is kinda native here.
