Well, his head has, at any rate. And it probably had help.
Yes, someone has stolen the head of the director of Nosferatu. Make of that what you will. The Huffington Post makes of it that it might have ben for “ritual purposes”
What surprises me is that this isn’t the first time this has happened. Apparently the corpse of a noted horror director is irresistible to some people.
Has anyone checked on Bela Lugosi’s tomb lately?
'Nosferatu' Director's Head Stolen From His Grave | HuffPost Latest News?
Mausoleums always struck me as a bad idea. They seem like an invitation for certain types of weirdos to mess with the burial site.

Murnau will end up having the Last Laugh.
Weirdorama-IO guess there are always some nuts into this sort of thing. There seems to be a small group of collectors for the skulls of famous people-the pirate Blackbeard’s skull is supposed to be owned by a college fraternity-i wonder how that was acquired.

I guess its not technically a Mausoleum if its below ground, but I mean a burial that’s accessible by a door, instead of just burying the whole thing. Maybe “tomb” is the word I’m looking for.
Somebody go check New Haven.
You can’t lose what you already gave.
Which is what put him in that tomb in the first place.
F.W. Murnau used to give head?
He was a pledge . . . they don’t always survive Hell Week.
