Today we will start off with a old favorite
So What Killed The Vampire
by Carter Brown
When TV Writer Larry Baker stumbles through a comedy of horrors in an
old haunted castle...Merrie England was never merrier or deadlier.

"Can I help it if the wall gave way?" In his crazy castle capers Larry
Baker crashes through walls with ease of Superman. And somehow usually
lands plunk in the middle of a lovely lady's bed. But Larry isn't really
a sex maniac. Not quite. Even though the black-haired babe calls him
seducer and the gamin-type blonde screams bloody murder.

When you up against a real live vampires, disappearing corpses, things
that go wheesh in the night, plus a couple of gorgeous undressed gals
guarantee to drive Larry up the wall. Something has to give. And when it
does, with plenty of happy horrible hilarity!
It was called Fearsome Grange and it's a natural for the supernatural.
Larry baker and his sidekick Boris Silvka are there to create their new
TV horror series right on location. The old 13th century castle has
everything, slimy moat, revolving walls, secret passages, hidden
treasure, and an ancient curse. In fact, it's made to order, right down
to the unexpected bunch of murky monsters in residence. Perfectly cast
and not in the script.
