Dracula is an original ballet choreographed by Wes Chapman and Roger Van Fleterer for the Alabama Ballet. Its original score, by Tom Helms was composed specifically for the "Big Bertha" Mighty Wurlitzer organ at the Alabama Theatre, where the piece was debuted in October 1998.

Chapman danced the lead role in the premiere, with Van Fleterer playing the scene-stealing lunatic Renfield.

The ballet was revived in 2006 with Kyle Seguin as Dracula and Mark Asturias debuted as Renfield.
