Going to scary movies was the latest rage during the mid-century years, and still are to this day! Let’s face it, every now and then, we all want to feel just a little scared or fearful. Seeing a horror movie is simply a way to experience-safe emotional and physical fears- without the possibility of any real consequences. This feeling causes our hearts to beat just a little bit faster. This feeling is sort of like anxiously waiting in line to ride the newest wild amusement park ride. Hollywood movie makers cashed in on those fears.
Some of my favorite horror flicks to watch at the local cinema, were the Hammer “Dracula” vampire series, which starred the actor Christopher Lee as the creepy seducing- but kinda sexy – vampire.
The most favored Count Dracula character was portrayed by-of course-Bela Lugosi (Birth name-Béla Ferenc Dezsõ Blaskó. Born in Romania, 1882-1956) This vampire definitely had strange mesmerizing eyes that seemed almost hypnotic when watching him.
Original ’30s Bela Lugosi movie posters can fetch in the thousands.
