Biography

House of Dracula is a 1945 American horror film released by Universal Pictures. Directed by Erle C. Kenton, the film features several Universal Horror properties meeting as they had done previously in the 1944 film The House of Frankenstein. The film is set at the castle home of Dr. Franz Edelmann, who is visited first by Count Dracula and later by Larry Talbot, who are trying to cure their vampirism and lycanthropy, respectively. The doctor agrees to help the count, who arrives first, but is unable to aid Larry Talbot. Talbot tries to get himself imprisoned to control his Wolf Man other self, but eventually tries to commit suicide by leaping into the ocean near the castle. Talbot survives the fall, only to find the body of Frankenstein's monster in a cave near the bottom of the castle. Edelemann takes the monster's body back to his laboratory, but finds that Count Dracula has awoken and on attacking his assistants, he captures Edelmann and forces a reverse blood transfusion, which gives Edelmann a split personality that likes to cause havoc for those around him. Initially set to be directed by Ford Beebe with Bela Lugosi reprising his role of Count Dracula, the film eventually went into production being directed by Kenton and with John Carradine in the role of Count Dracula as he had done in The House of Frankenstein.
