About this listen

Join us this week for our episode on Lew Lander's 1943 "The Return of the Vampire." Starring Bela Lugosi as the vampire Armand Tesla, the film is considered an unofficial sequel to Dracula with Lugosi essentially playing the Count in all but name.

We will discuss the the scoio-political climate of WWII's influence on the film, the appearance of our first lead female vampire hunter, Lady Jane, and the surprising role that German bomber planes play in the vampire's defeat.
