Why is Frankensteins face green?

Well, Frankenstein's monster's face is actually described as an unhealthy gray color in the book. In order to make the first movie they had to paint the actor green to make the appearance of the right gray on the black and white televisions. It seems to have stuck, and now Frankenstein's monster is green.

Who is portrayed Frankenstein Dracula The Wolfman and The Mummy?

Lon Chaney, Jr. played the Wolfman in the movie by that name and also in "House of Frankenstein" (1944); Frankenstein's monster in "Ghost of Frankenstein" (1942); and the mummy in "The Mummy's Tomb" (1942) and "The Mummy's Ghost" and "The Mummy's Curse" (both 1944). I don't believe he ever played Count Dracula but he did play the SON of the Count in "Son of Dracula" (1943). All these films were produced by Universal. British actor Christopher Lee played Frankenstein's monster in "The Curse of Frankenstein" (1957); the mummy in "The Mummy" (1959); and Count Dracula in several films, beginning with "Dracula" (1958; released in the US as "Horror of Dracula"). All of these were produced by UK studio Hammer Films. I don't think he ever played a werewolf. Best I can do.
