At the moment no planets have been detected, which is not surprising as it's a binary star system (possibly triple star).
Jupiter is the only bright planet near Aldebaran just now (Feb. 2013).
Algol is a triple star system.Aldebaran: 4,010KAlgol A: 12,000K
I'm pretty sure Algol is 105 light years away.
Algol (Demon Star) is a bright star in the constellation Perseus.Algol is actually a triple star system - Beta Persei A, B, and CBeta Persei A has a spectral type of B8 and is a blue-white giantBeta Persei B has a spectral type of K0 and is an orange subgiantSee related link for more information.
The "Demon Star" is Beta Persi, which means it is the second brightest star in the constellation Perseus. Its official name is Algol. It is also the first variable star (in increases and decreases in brightness) that was ever found. The reason for its variability is the fact that it is not one star but two orbiting each other in close proximity. (It is a binary star)
Algol is a bright three-star system that is part of the constellation Perseus. Other names for Algol are Demon Star, Gorgona, and El Ghoul.
Algol is in the constellation Perseus.

I didn't know there was one called Maria but Algol is Arabic for 'The Ghoul'.

Virtually all of the known planets are near a star. Occasionally, a rougue free floating one will be sighted, but they are rare anomalies.
