He was born in Lugos, Hungary, at the time part of Austria-Hungary (now Lugoj, Romania), the youngest of four children of a baker.

He died August 16, 1956, of a heart attack. He died while filming "Plan Nine from Outer Space" (one of the greatest worst movies ever). He was buried in his Dracula cape, and, upon seeing him in his casket, Peter Lorre asked, "Should we drive a stake through his heart, just in case?"
