The same reason as they'd use Edward Cullen. They're both well known for Writing/Being in Twlight, and when you bring it up, people usually think either "Oh, that piece of shit Stephanie Meyer Wrote?" or "Sparkly Vampires are dumb."

Also, Stephanie Meyer has more information about her with research than Edward Cullen, and You can insult Edward Cullen through Stephanie Meyer anyway.

Plus Mary Shelley vs Stephanie Meyer > Edward Cullen vs Dracula because Dracula shouldn't be wasted on Cullen, and Cullen doesn't have many other good opponents, whereas Stephanie Meyer has a few good ones. (I personally thing her connection with Mary Shelley, Horror Writers that inspired a generation, is much better and more usuable than the connection between Dracula and Edward... as in, Vampires that... bite... necks... of things... I honestly don't get the connection, to be blunt.)
