I read somewhere that when Vincent Price and Peter Lorre went to view Bela's body, Peter turns to Vincent and asks, "Should we stick a wooden stake in him just in case?"

Re: Bela Lugosi (Dracula Actor) Death Pictures
I heard it wasn't Lugosi's request to be buried in the costume. The family did it cause they thought it's what he would have wanted.
