      And let's not forget that he also not only narrated during the theme song for The 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo, but also voiced a fictionalized version himself known as Vincent van Ghoul as well as Professor Ratigan in The Great Mouse Detective. Oh. You should hear him sing The World's Greatest Criminal Mind. It's wonderful he gets a chance to sing, and it's truly awesome that he's singing a villain song.
      And then there's Tim Curry. Just listen to this and you will hear what he brings that's quite similar if not the same of what the great Vincent Price gives. ruclips.net/video/zMLCtMTC-o0/видео.html

      Agreed with everybody! Although I do feel that a few people (if only a very very small handful) do come close, iconically. Vincent Price could be just as funny as he could be scary, and I think he took it to an artistic level. He certainly was one-of-a-kind! Some pictures of him kind of remind me of Salvadore Dali a little bit. Might just be crazy though if it's just me xD

    And whomsoever shall be *found*
    Without the *soul* for getting down
    Must stand and face the *hounds* of *hell*
    And *rot* inside a *corpse's* shell.
    The *foulest* stench is in the air
    The funk of forty *thousand* years
    And grisly *ghouls* from every *tomb*
    Are closing in to seal your *doom*

      He would be 109 if he was still living. He was born in 1911.

    Vincent Price had a great voice and presence. I'd watch any movie he was in.

    'The Fly' is my favorite Vincent Price movie, his voice is unmistakable. 💀

    I’m glad my mom introduced to me Vincent Price. One of my favorite horror icons.

    That laugh along with the background music and thunder still gives me chills, no one can tell a good horror rap story like Vincent Price may he R.I.P. 🙏🙌

    Can’t fall asleep and for some reason I started singing Thriller. I had to recite the monologue. Then I needed to hear it and down the rabbit hole 🕳 I go... and how lucky am I stumbling onto this clip?!?! I love RUclips. Thanks for posting 🙌🏽
