Thank you for the wonderful website and information I will be back soon

Dear: Mr Chapman

I really admire the Universal Studios
Monster movies with out them there would not be horror movies today and still they dont beat the classics.Among the Universal Monsters Frankenstein & The Gillman Is My Favorite.I Bet you think
Its cool how Sideshow Collectibles is going to make a 12" Creature From The Black Lagoon Figure I cant wait to get it.Thank you for being such a great actor
and continue to keep THE GILLMAN ALIVE.

Hi Mr. Chapman -

I just stumbled upon your site and wanted to express my sincere thanks for all of the fantastic childhood memories you and your co-stars blessed me with. I was born in 1958, and have wonderful memories of the Universal Monsters craze of the 60s, with the Creature and the Wolfman my top two favourites in the bunch.

My Dad taught Puppetry at the University of Connecticut for almost 30 years before his retirement, so he was always interested in fantastic movies and beasties and never failed to support my interests in those films - he even designed me special birthday cakes as a kid featuring the Creature, Wolfman, and Godzilla in successive years!. What a lucky kid! Makes me smile to this day to think back on it all.

They say some things never change - I still cherish those memories and love watching those marvelous films with my own two daughters today. They certainly don't make films like that anymore - more's the pity! Thanks a million for your part in making my childhood so special.

God Bless,
Dave Ballard

Hi Ben, I Own all of The Creature Flims on VHS. I have Creature Walks Among us In The Original Case. I thought you did good in all the Creature movies. What Creature Movie did you enjoy acting? I watched The Creature Set about 4 Times.

Ben, We love ya. was great to visit once again at the bash. So happy to see Julie there. We'll see you at Monster-Mania in N.J.

nice site

Ben, I have not responded to you in a year and I apologize-hope you are in the best of health now. God bless you. Again, thanks for the childhood memories of a creature who showed more humanity than those who sought him. I have passed my memories of you to my son. He loves the movies and the messege of The Creature From the Black Lagoon. Live on Ben!
