Vincent Price was an American actor who became the defining voice of classic horror through films such as House of Wax and The Fall of the House of Usher in the 1950s and 1960s. His elegant, theatrical delivery and unmistakable cackle made him the archetypal screen villain, and his laugh later reached a new generation when he performed the spoken-word section of Michael Jackson's Thriller in 1982. Clips of the laugh now circulate widely on soundboards and in Halloween edits, where it instantly signals old-fashioned spookiness, camp horror and a villain enjoying his own wickedness.
