      In that movie the monster was also played by Lon Chaney Jr.; A small part in the laboratory (around 6:13). due to a small accident that happenned to Strange. Chaney graciously accepted to replaced him.

      Somehow during the early 1960s it seems that it was GLENN STRANGE’s portrayal of the Monster that ended up on point of sale items advertisements etc. Clearly A&C MEET FRANKENSTEIN was a huge fan favorite for Monster kids in the 60s. Glenn Strange played the ‘monster’ 3 times only in released movies - the other two were HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN and HOUSE OF DRACULA. All 3 were mash ups with all Monsters…..
