Barbara Shelley
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Barbara Shelley (born August 15, 1933) is a British film and television actress.
She is now retired, but was at her busiest in the late 1950s (Blood of the Vampire) and 1960s when she became Hammer Horror's number one female star, with The Gorgon (1964), Dracula, Prince of Darkness (1965), Rasputin, the Mad Monk (1965), and Quatermass and the Pit (1967) among her credits. Although she is known as a scream queen, in fact her most famous scream (in the afore-mentioned Dracula film) was dubbed by co-star Suzan Farmer.
She also appeared in Village of the Damned (1960) and a Doctor Who story, Planet of Fire, in 1984.
