Vincent Price
Vincent Price (1911–1993) was an American actor celebrated for his distinctive voice and genteel menace in horror films.
His refined, theatrical presence defined classics like *House of Wax*, *The Fly*, and Roger Corman's Edgar Allan Poe adaptations.
Price became a cultural icon of campy horror, his elegant villainy blending genuine eeriness with knowing humor.
He was also a noted art collector and gourmet cook.
