I had to reverse image search that one because I was certain that’s not Bela Lugosi. But it seems like it is. But it’s a younger him, from a stage version of Dracula, not the famous 1931 film. This photo is from 1927, perhaps earlier.
He had a good short performance ten years later in The Wolfman, which I just rewatched last night. Quite a trajectory, comparing his roles from Dracula to Wolfman to Plan 9 From Outer Space. Still, undeniably an icon. Pull the string!
