David Peel was a handsome British actor who, in his next-to-last film
appearance, created one of the most memorable vampires in horror-film
history: "Baron Meinster" in Hammer Films'
The Brides of Dracula (1960).
Peel's final screen appearance was a seconds-long role as the doomed
pilot of a private airplane in
The Hands of Orlac (1960); he
then retired from the screen to become a fine art dealer, at which he
excelled.
