Boris Karloff

Actor Boris Karloff was a horror icon in the days when those were few and far between. Starring as the Monster himself in Frankenstein and as Imhotep in The Mummy, those roles cemented him in the annals of film history. With his deep, gravelly voice and a talent for pacing, he won a Grammy playing both the Grinch and the narrator in How the Grinch Stole Christmas! and our hearts as well.
