Travis visits Snagov Monastery in an attempt to figure out if Vlad the Impaler is actually buried there. He locates the grave inside, but is unable to pry the lid off the tomb.

Sighisoara
Travis visits the medieval walled city of Sighisoara, Romania. The Vlad Dracul House is the location where Vlad the Impaler was born in 1428, and Travis goes inside in an attempt to find the actual spot where Vlad's mother gave birth. He also journeys into the only crypt in Transylvania, visit a medieval cathedral, and discover Sighisoara's beautifully preserved buildings and cemeteries.

Poenari Castle
Travis visits the site of Poenari Castle, often called "The Real Castle Dracula." He attempts to scale the mountain leading to the castle, but encounters a large European brown bear, and is turned back from the trail. While walking along the Arges River, searching for the site where Vlad the Impaler's princess threw herself to her death, he encounters another large brown bear.
Episode 4 • Mar 08, 2020
Tampa Hill

Episode 5 • Mar 08, 2020
Bran Castle
Travis visits Bran Castle, which is billed by the Romanian government as "Castle Dracula." However, during his journey, Travis discovers that the castle has no actual association with Vlad the Impaler and was probably never even visited by him. He declares the castle to be "Romania's biggest tourist trap."
Episode 6 • Mar 09, 2020
Targoviste Palace
Travis explores Targoviste Palace, the site of the capital of Wallachia during much of Vlad the Impaler's reign over the country. He climbs the imposing central watchtower, which was actually built by Vlad. Then the action goes to the basement of the palace, which is remarkably well preserved.

Dealu Monastery
Travis explores Delau Monastery, the rumored location of Vlad Dracul's burial. After searching the entire site for any evidence of the burial, he is about to give up hope when he suddenly decides to rip up the carpet in the monastery. Under the carpet, Travis discovers several tombs buried in the floor, but translating the names on the stones becomes a challenge.
Episode 8 • Mar 10, 2020
Bucharest
Travis journeys around the modern city of Bucharest, finding many traces of Vlad the Impaler throughout the city. In the National Museum, he examines a decree actually written by Vlad. Outside of Carol I Park, he visits a scale replica model of Poenari Castle which is only open to the public one day a year.

Travel in Romania
At the end of his time in Romania, Travis takes the time to share his overall experiences traveling through the country and what it is like to be a tourist in Romania. He gives lots of examples of the food he ate during the trip and also shares tips about driving in a foreign country.
