Janos Skorzeny
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Character name of the vampire played by Barry Atwater in the classic TV movie The Night Stalker (1972).
Born in 1899 in Craesti, Romania.
His father died in 1923, leaving Skozeny between 75 and 100 million dollars.
He was in England during the German blitz, where he passed himself off as Dr. Paul Belascoe, a specialist in hemotology research.
In 1948, he showed up in Canada, still under the name of Dr. Paul Belascoe. He showed up wherever rioting and violence and large numbers of dead bodies could be found.
Left Canada for Vegas on May 19th, 1972 under the name Detective Constable Alan Hensley.
Confirmed kills in Las Vegas: Cheryl Hughes, Bonnie Reynolds, Carol Hanechak, Mary Brandon and two police officers. As well as Shelly Forbes' Doberman Pinscher. Another victim, Catherine Rollins, came back to life as a female vampire which Carl Kolchak hunts down in the fourth episode of the Night Stalker TV series. The fate of Shelly Forbes was not made clear (though it's assumed she survived).
