In the first Kharis film, The Mummy's Hand (1940), the character was played by Western-film actor Tom Tyler, while the three subsequent films, The Mummy's Tomb (1942), The Mummy's Ghost (1944), and The Mummy's Curse (also 1944), starred Lon Chaney, Jr. in the role. So obviously somebody didn't think continuity was that big of an issue. Kharis slips away with Isobel unbeknownst to the horde, and Bey attempts to shoot Banning, but is himself gunned down by the sheriff.
Chaney is also the subject of the 2000 documentary feature, Lon Chaney: A Thousand Faces.

An eccentric scientist helps a fugitive from the law become invisible, unwittingly giving him the power to exact revenge on his former friends. Banning and Isobel wed in short order, as he has received his draft notice and is due to report for his tour of duty in World War II. The final entry in the Kharis the mummy series is also the weakest, although still a good watch.
