Problem: Vincent Leonard Price Jr. (May 27, 1911 - October 25, 1993) was an American actor, well known for his distinctive voice and performances in horror films. His career spanned other genres, including film noir, drama, mystery, thriller, and comedy. He appeared on stage, television, radio, and more than one hundred films.

Price married three times. His first marriage was in 1938 to former actress Edith Barrett; they had one son, Vincent Barrett Price, and divorced in 1948. A year later, in 1949, Price married Mary Grant, and they had a daughter, Victoria Price, on April 27, 1962. She was named Victoria after Price's first major success in the play Victoria Regina. The marriage lasted until 1973. Price's last marriage was in 1974 to Australian actress Coral Browne, who appeared with him (as one of his victims) in Theatre of Blood (1973). The marriage lasted until Browne's death in 1991. One example of his outspoken political action came when he concluded an old-time radio episode of The Saint, entitled "Author of Murder", which aired on NBC Radio on July 30, 1950. He denounced racial and religious prejudice as a form of poison and claimed Americans must actively fight against it because racial and religious prejudice within the United States fuels support for the nation's enemies. Price was later appointed to the Indian Arts and Crafts Board under the Dwight D. Eisenhower Administration; he called the appointment "kind of a surprise, since I am a Democrat." Price was supportive of his daughter, who came out as a lesbian, and was critical of Anita Bryant's anti-gay campaign in the 1970s. He was an honorary board member of PFLAG and among the first celebrities to appear in public service announcements discussing AIDS with the public. His daughter has stated that she is "as close to certain as (she) can be that (Price) had physically intimate relationships with men." although never confirmed by anyone else.

There are many unanswered questions, and the situation will become clearer in the coming days and weeks. We'll keep you informed as best we can." They also stated that their thoughts were "with Tim, his family, and with everyone else affected by this terrible situation." Eight days later, the band cancelled their mid-2013 tour with Killswitch Engage, stating that "we feel that it is best for the band to be off the road while the current situation gets sorted".
