Although green in colour, the sepals are covered by numerous blackish purple veins and the tails are almost completely black. The large sepals dwarf the petals and lip of the flower, which are white in colour and marked with purple and pinkish veins respectively. ''Dracula vampira'' is a large epiphyte, meaning that it does not grow in soil, it has many stems; the erect leaves are between 15 and 28 cm long.〔Luer, C.A. (1993) ''Systematics of Dracula''. Missouri Botanical Gardens.〕 The generic name of this species - ''Dracula'' means ''little dragon'', named due to the exotic flower shape.〔Hermans, J. & Hermans, C. (1997) ''An Annotated Checklist of the Genus Dracula''. Orchid Digest Corporation.〕
