What are facts regarding Bram Stoker’s version of Vampires?

We’ve seen tons of different versions of ‘facts’ regarding Vampires. Immune to silver, harmed by silver, bursts into flames in the sun, only weakened in the sun, turns by biting, turns by feeding, immense strength and transforming into a wolf vs. a bat are a few examples.

So, simply, can anyone list all (or most) of the ‘facts’ regarding Bram Stoker’s version of Vampires, as seen in Dracula? I’d be very appreciative to sift out the lolnonsense from the classics!

Count Dracula is portrayed in the novel using many different supernatural abilities. He has physical strength which, according to Van Helsing, is equivalent to 20 men. Being undead, he is immune to conventional means of attack. The only definite way to kill him is by decapitating him followed by impalement through the heart with a wooden stake, although it is also suggested that shooting him with a sacred bullet would suffice. The Count can defy gravity to a certain extent, being able to climb upside down vertical surfaces in a reptilian manner. He has powerful hypnotic and mind control abilities, and is also able to command nocturnal animals such as wolves and rats. Dracula can also manipulate the weather, usually creating mists to hide his presence, but also storms such as in his voyage in the Demeter. He can shapeshift at will, his featured forms in the novel being that of a bat, a rat, a wolf, vapor, and fog. He requires no other sustenance but fresh blood, which has the effect of rejuvenating him

One of Dracula’s most mysterious powers is the ability to transfer his vampiric condition to others. As seen with Lucy and Mina, transfer of the curse is done through a bite to the throat, allowing the Count to ingest the victim’s blood at the same time. The victim is transformed gradually.

Dracula’s powers are not unlimited, however. He is much less powerful in daylight and is only able to shift his form at dawn, noon, and dusk (he can shift freely at night). The sun is not fatal to him, though, as sunlight does not burn and destroy him upon contact. He is repulsed by garlic, crucifixes and sacramental bread, and he can only cross running water at low or high tide. He is also unable to enter a place unless invited to do so; once invited, however, he can approach and leave the premises at will.

He also requires Transylvanian Earth to be nearby to him in order to successfully rest, otherwise he will not be able to recover his strength, much like how humans are deprived of their strength after not sleeping for an extended period of time.

Dracula’s powers and weaknesses vary greatly in the many adaptations. Previous and subsequent vampires from different legends have had similar vampire characteristics.
