Set in the parlour of Castle von Blitzen high in the Carpathian Mountains of Transylvania in the 1890s,
this hilarious send up of the horror story genre has an ancient castle, creaking doors, a mad scientist,
his misshapen assistant, a grim housekeeper, secret laboratory, shrieks from the depths of the cellar,
disappearing villagers, an incredibly stalwart and stupid hero of sterling character, the scientist's
absolutely dopey daughter, and so many laughs you'll lose count.
Any resemblance between these characters and any other persons live or dead is highly unlikely!
