Actor, poet, philosopher, and writer.  Known for his short stories of horror, many of which are autobiographical, notably 'The Sorcerer's Apprentice' (1910) and 'Alraune' (1911). Charged and arrested during the Great War as a German spy, though he was never tried on the charge. Similarly, had Nazi sympathies, but the fact he was homosexual made his sympathies short-lived.  Wrote several early film scripts.
