Bela Lugosi

He has his own horror host persona, Doctor Fearless, a mad scientist vampire with a very Bela Lugosi accent.

Because that's the interesting thing as well is I think I love the change that they make. Because obviously you get for a start, this is the first Dracula film where they put Renfield in the role of a member of Harker's estate agency, and in the Bela Lugosi one, it's actually Renfield who goes and does follows Harker's path and then comes back as Renfield essentially.

So got a little taste of Bela Lugosi.

But effectively, yeah, it is it's like they've rewritten Dracula, but gone, right, we can we'll move the camera around a bit more and Boris Karloff's playing Dracula now not Bela Lugosi.

The Mummy, Invisible Man, Phantom of the Opera and so on. And so yes, they've done Dracula, huge success, done Frankenstein, but Bela Lugosi famously doesn't want to do to play the monster in Frankenstein, so Boris Karloff plays it, massive success and at this point Karloff becomes their go-to guy for their monsters, essentially.

Yeah, it's essentially Boris Karloff playing the Dracula role rather than Bela Lugosi.
