ABOUT THIS LIFE-SIZE BUST
The first film based on Bram Stoker’s 1897 novel, Dracula is Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror. This German Expressionist silent-era horror film, directed by F.W. Murnau, stars Max Schreck as the vampire, Count Orlok.

The look of Schreck's vampire frightened movie audiences. He was gaunt and bald and frightening with rat-like fangs, bat-like ears, and cat-like claws at the end of his inhumanly long fingers. Schreck’s portrayal of Count Orlok has been more stylistically influential, with respect to the vampire’s look, than Bela Lugosi’s less monstrous, minimalist and cerebral portrayal of Count Dracula. Fans of horror and vampire films may reasonably disagree about which type of portrayal is ultimately more frightening but we dig them both. d Black Heart Enterprises, LLC™ are proud to have collaborated with four very talented artists in creating this life-sized tribute to Max Schreck as Nosferatu (Count Orlok). Sculptor Jeff Yagher masterfully integrated authentic textures and ultra-realistic detailing in a Nosferatu likeness that is as credible and as accurate as can be achieved.

Sculptor Jeff Yagher masterfully integrated authentic textures and ultra-realistic detailing in a Nosferatu likeness that is as credible and as accurate as can be achieved. Brazilian artist Amilcar Fong’s detailed sketches beautifully aided and captured Black Heart’s concept and vision for our Nosferatu bust. Professional modeler Greg McKellar made the sculpture come to life with his painted master that served as the paint pattern for the bust. And, credit for the Nosferatu box label design goes to artist/designer Steve Parke.
