RIP Hammer horror actress Ingrid Pitt dies aged 73
Hammer horror actress Ingrid Pitt, best known for starring in cult classics such as Countess Dracula, has died at the age of 73. The Polish-born star passed away at a hospital in South London.
She was regarded by many fans as the queen of Hammer Horror films.
The star’s death comes weeks after film-maker Roy Ward Baker, who directed Pitt in The Vampire Lovers, died at the age of 93.
Pitt’s daughter Stephanie Blake told the BBC News website that her mother’s death had come as a “huge surprise”.
After the actress collapsed recently, doctors had told her was she suffering from heart failure.
“She could be incredibly generous, loving, and she’ll be sorely missed,” Mrs Blake said.
She added that she wanted her mother to be remembered as the Countess Dracula with the “wonderful teeth and the wonderful bosom”.

Classic horror movie posters from 1960-1969
Some of the most amazing horror movies and arts are from the 1950-1970 in my opinion and most of them are from the most greatest studio of them all, Hammer studios. They did great ones but oh my god all mighty such awful ones as well… But the artwork for the horror movies are of such style and excellence.
Ok, we all have to forget them for the titles, hells bells… they are really awful but having your lady by your side and watching a classic as Astro Zombies, nothing can beat it…
