Iconic still from Dracula (1931), featuring Bela Lugosi descending a shadowed staircase in his legendary role as Count Dracula.
Directed by Tod Browning, this atmospheric black-and-white scene captures the eerie elegance that defined Universal’s classic monster era. Lugosi’s commanding presence and hypnotic stare became the definitive image of the vampire in cinema, setting the standard for generations of portrayals to come.
