I've voted "other"... Not that I don't like the others in the list, but I wanted to cast a vote for the Femm family, in James Whale's "The Old Dark House" (1932)... quite a terrific bunch!

(I would have voted Dr. Moreau in "Island of Lost Souls! (1932)... Alas, it was a Paramount, not a Universal production. A fine film, nonetheless)

Hey, what about Fred Bucato's magistral interpretation of Billy-goat Gruff in "Revenge from Under the Bridge" (1923, Pantheon Pictures)?

I'd have to say Frankie (as played by Karloff, not Lugosi).

Incidently, the original novel of Dracula is still my favorite all time horror novel, edging out The Exorcist. Do yourselves a favor and check it out. It is absolutely riveting.

Indeed!

I had seen a lot of film versions (really, A LOT), but got curious about reading the actual novel ("blame" Alan Moore and his League of extraordinary gentlemen)... And, I was so surprised that, even though I was aware of the basic plot elements, I couldn't put down the book!

I enjoyed it a lot, though I must say that reading it alone at home, at night, was -yes-, pretty frightening!
