RIP Sid Haig

1939-2019

Sid Haig (born Sidney Eddie Mosesian) was first employed by Desilu in a 1962 episode of “The Untouchables.”  He was buried beneath bandages on “The Lucy Show” as the Mummy in “Lucy and the Monsters” (TLS S3;E18) in 1965.

MUMMY: “Table for two? Right this way!” 

LUCY: “Please, Mummy!  I’d rather do it myself!” 

Haig (right), was also seen in a 1969 episode of “Here’s Lucy” titled “The Great Airport Chase” (HL S1;E18). 

The episode was shot on location at Los Angeles International Airport. 

Of his nearly 150 screen credits, Haig later appeared in the horror re-boots Night of the Living Dead 3D (2006) and Halloween (2007).  He was 80 years old.
