Kiwi Kingston

Ernest Walter "Kiwi" Kingston (1914–1992) was a wrestler and film actor from New Zealand. He is relatively unknown, but still remembered for his role as the Karloff-like Frankenstein's monster in Hammer's The Evil of Frankenstein. He also appeared in the film Hysteria (1965).

Professional wrestling Kingston was trained by Anton Koolmann. He was billed as 6 '5" in height, although New Zealand sources give his height at 6' 2" or 3". He experienced success in Europe starting in the late 1930s. He had matches with Bert Assirati and would often ride to the ring on horseback, dismounting on the ring apron.
