Let's make this birthday one to remember.

86 years old (Born on March 18, 1939)

Happy Birthday, Piers Haggard! We raise our glasses—and perhaps cautiously peek under the bed—for a toast to your wonderfully eerie masterpiece 'Blood on Satan’s Claw' and intense thrills delivered in 'Venom.' You've taught generations never to underestimate charming folk tunes or harmless little serpents—thanks for making us laugh nervously into our popcorn!

And who can forget that landmark BBC series, ‘Pennies From Heaven,’ which made rainy days oddly whimsical? Here's hoping you've stocked up enough tiny coins from heaven itself—we expect cake bought purely with celestial currency. Wishing you endless inspiration—you legendary frightener-of-audiences-turned-national-treasure of cinema greatness!
