'telling' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'dracula maybe to stop slightly twisted rule?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'dracula' could be 'count' and 'count' is found within the answer.
'rule?' could be 'rein' (synonyms) and 'rein' is located in the remaining letters.
A single letter 'g' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for recounting that I've seen before include "activity in a close election" , "Describing" .)
