Dracula influenced Nosferatu

An adaptation made without the rights, and the courts said so. Prana Film changed the names (Count Orlok, Hutter, Ellen) and moved the story to Wisborg, Florence Stoker sued, and in 1925 a German court ordered every copy destroyed. Prints that had already left the country are why the film still exists. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nosferatu
