==Film Deaths==
*The Monsters of Terror (Los Monstruos del Terror) (1970) [Count Waldemar Daninsky] Shot by Gela Geisler who he happens to strangle.
*Werewolf Shadow (La Noche de Walpurgis; The Werewolf vs the Vmapire Women) (1971) [Waldemar Daninsky a.k.a. the Wolfman]: Stabbed to death with a silver crucifix by Gaby Fuchs while he’s in his werewolf form, he returns to his human form as he dies. (Note: although Paul played the werewolf character “Waldemar Daninsky” in numerous films, there is seldom any attempt to explain his return from one movie to the next; for all intents and purposes, they can be considered completely separate deaths and not “resurrections” of the previous ones. I assume he dies in most if not all of his werewolf movies, but I’ve only listed the ones I’ve heard about for certain.)
