BIG BAD BELA!


Whenever Bela Lugosi was interviewed for a film fan magazine in his 1930's heyday, he was congenial and charming and always had a tale to tell. In this article from a vintage issue of PICTURE PLAY magazine (July, 1934), he talks about his beloved dogs and his bat ring that was given to him by the cast of DRACULA. He also admits that he was fated to be cast as a "heavy". "I am definitely typed, doomed to be an exponent of evil". Not necessarily a bad thing for monster fans!
