PETER CUSHING: PETER AND HELEN'S KENSINGTON HOME LONDON 1960'S




PETER AND HELEN LIVED AT THIS HOME UNTIL THEY MOVED TO THEIR COTTAGE IN SEASALTER. WHITSTABLE, KENT. THERE'S AN INTERESTING HAMMER FILMS/DRACULA CONNECTION WITH THIS 17TH CENTURY HOUSE. IN 1966 HAMMER FILMS RELEASED THEIR SEQUEL TO THE 1958 BOX OFFICE SMASH 'DRACULA' WITH PETER AND CHRISTOPHER LEE. PETER WAS NOT CAST IN THE SEQUEL, BUT THE PROLOGUE SCENE TO 'DRACULA, PRINCE OF DARKNESS' DID INCLUDE PETER, BEING THE CLIMAX FINAL SCENE OF THE 58 'DRACULA'.

WHEN IT CAME TO THE NEGOTIATIONS FOR PETER'S APPEARANCE PAYMENT, IT WAS SETTLED THAT HAMMER WOULD PAY FOR THE RE ROOFING OF THIS HOME IN KENSINGTON!
