Hammer: Heroes, Legends and Monsters

This narrative explores Hammer’s journey from a modest office on London’s Regent Street to becoming a legendary name in the horror film industry. Founded in 1934 by comedian and entrepreneur William Hinds, the company produced iconic films like The Curse of Frankenstein, Dracula, and The Quatermass Xperiment. These films, which defined Hammer’s golden era, also catapulted actors such as Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing to stardom.
