then X11 apps will load their default settings from /etc/X11/app-defaults/$APP-color instead of /etc/X11/app-defaults/$APP(at least that's where the defaults are on Ubuntu).
On Ubuntu also, /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm-color contains the following lines:
! These are the 8 ANSI colors and their bright equivalents. Depending on
! other resource settings, xterm may use the bright colors when displaying
! bold text (see the boldColors resource).

Xterm favors these Xterm.VT100.color[0-9]* settings over the generic *.color[0-9]* settings, so the Dracula settings set in .Xresources as per the installation instructions do not work.
Suggestion: also set the VT100 settings in the .Xresources file, like this:
