abstract
  • Bela is a character in the 1941 film, The Wolf Man. He was a gypsy fortune teller who traveled with his family throughout Europe in the early 1940s. He was the son of an elderly woman named Maleva. He suffered the curse of Lycanthropy and turned into a wolf when the moon was full. Like most werewolves, Bela could see the mark of the pentagram transposed over the palm of his next victim. On nights of the full moon, a pentagram mark would also appear upon Bela's head. In 1941, Bela and his gypsy troupe were in Llanwelly, Wales, when he met a customer named Jenny Williams. Bela read her fortune, but was horrified when he saw the image of the pentagram in her hand. Bela warned her to leave, but soon transformed into a large wolf. He hunted Jenny through the moors and attacked her. One of Jenny's acquaintances, an aristocrat named Larry Talbot, came to her aid and beat Bela down with a silver-tipped walking stick, ultimately killing him. During the struggle, however, Bela bit Talbot, transmitting the curse of the werewolf to him. His mother, Maleva, recovered Bela's body and it was taken to a nearby church. A gypsy funeral was conducted, which consisted of people "dancing and singing and making merry".
