    What about kissing someone with a mustache?

    I forget at the moment, but is it the hearts’, diamonds’, spades’, or clubs’ Jack that has no facial hair (mustache or beard)?

    Lugosi was buried in HIS “vampire” costume.

    Which were pretty fancy duds.

    But the really over-the-top thing at the Lugosi interment was the big wooden stake.

    What kind of kiss? I find it hard to believe that shaking hands is more dangerous than removing streps from someone else’s tonsils with your tongue… What about cunnilingus? Technically speaking, it’s a kiss :D

    But why is king of hearts stabbing his own head?

    Oh yeah? And get booked for physically harassing your coworker? Oh wait, these days we’d get booked on harassment charges for touching the co-worker’s hand during a handshake too.

    Wow there are four kings in a deck and only one of them is clean shaven? Wow, just, wow, what are the odds? Uhm, 1 in 4, I’d say. Hardly breath taking factoid, BION.

    Bela Lugosi did not speak English when he appeared in his first play in the US, The Red Poppy, memorizing his lines phonetically. By the time he made Dracula, he spoke English about as well as he did in the movie.

    Buried in a Vampire “Costume”? I don’t know about that. He was destitute at the time of his death, but a friend brought the cape he wore in the Dracula movies for him to be buried in.

    Perhaps the king is a queen.

    Boris Karloff and Peter Lorre attended the funeral, and allegedly Lorre said to Karloff, “Do you think we should stake him just to be sure?”

    I doubt if anyone got herpes from a handshake.

    A kiss on the lips is a lot ickier than a handshake unless you really like the person.

    I’m sorry, I’ll still shake hands with my buddies – we’re definitely not that close…

    Mutual friends and fellow horror movie stars Peter Lorre and Boris Karloff attended Lugosi’s funeral, and supposedly Lorre asked Karloff, “Do you think we should stab him through the heart… just to make sure?”
