On this day in horror history.... Lon Chaney Jr is born. A man who may have never reached the heights of his father, Lon Cheney Sr, but he left a mark on horror none the less. He's most notably known for his role as 'The Wolfman' in the original Universal Monster films. However, he went on to play so many other characters like Bruno in 'Spider Baby or, the Maddest Story Ever Told' a film that has to be seen to be believed. Sadly, he battled addiction for many years of his life and eventually passed away in 1973. Happy Birthday and RIP.
