I'll go first, and say Lon Channey Jr. That's because, of all the old time monsters, the Wolf Man was the only one who scared the s**t out of me!

Let's not forget Lionel Atwill, George Zucco, John Carradine and Dwight Frye.

Vincent Price. Bela Lugosi had the potential to win my vote, but he made the mistake of accepting every crappy role thrown at him instead of just accepting high profile roles he could excel at.

That's because Bela was a drug addict, and needed any source of cash for his fix.
