I wish I would and could have met her. I have met almost all my film( directors/actors) heroes.
But, I never had the opportunity to meet Ingrid Pitt. Definitely a cult Legend. I should also add,
her roles in Countess Dracula and the Vampire Lovers. Extremely stunning, beautiful, all the
adjectives that would best describe Ingrid Pitt, that is what I would like to add.

Met her? Wish I could have "Slept" with her!

 Tragic news, and a great loss of a talented actress.

Met her along with Veronica Carlson at Chilller back in the 90s.  I was thrown by her unexpected warmth and genuine interest in being with her fans.  Probably due to her big screen persona and acting skill, I'd expected a cold, detached, haughty horror diva, but was instead greeted by a warm, vivacious, KIND lady.  Rest in eternal peace, dear Ingrid.

Very sad.



Here she is with the delectable Madeline Smith in "The Vampire Lovers", the movie which catapulted her to stardom:
