Biography

Hungarian-American actor who was a stage performer for over 20 years before moving into film. He was most noted for his horror roles in the classics, "Count Dracula," 1931 "The Raven," 1935 "The Night Monster," 1942 and "Frankenstein Meets the Wolf" in 1943. After Lugosi's great success as Dracula, he dominated the villainous and horror genre.

After serving in the Hungarian army in WW II, he emigrated to New York in 1921. In 1935, Lugosi became heavily addicted to morphine and heroin, drugs that controlled his private life. He married five times. On 4/21/1955, as Lugosi was down to 119 pounds and financially drained, he admitted himself into the hospital for drug rehabilitation.

He died of a massive heart attack on 8/16/1956, Los Angeles, CA.
