Christopher Lee s quoted as saying Peter Cushing was his closest friend, and he and his wife were also friends of Boris Karloff. Quite the monster movie circle. Both Cushing and Lee served during WWII.

I didn’t know that. I heard a story (don’t remember who said in the seventies) Boris Karloff went to Bela Lugosi’s funeral, looked into the coffin and said, “You wouldn’t be putting me on , would you”?
