Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein

Abbot and Costello Meet Frankenstein is a 1948 comedy/horror film in which characters played by Bud Abbott and Lou Costello deliver large heavy crates to a wax museum only to discover that the contents -- Frankenstein's monster and Dracula -- are neither wax nor dead. Bela Lugosi stars as Dracula; Glenn Strange[?] stars as Frankenstein's monster; and Lon Chaney Jr. makes an appearance as the Wolfman. The film was directed by Charles T. Barton[?] from a screenplay by Robert Lees[?], Frederic I. Rinaldo[?] and John Grant[?].

In 2001 the United States Library of Congress deemed the film "culturally significant" and selected it for preservation in the National Film Registry.
