Some of the denizens of Dracula’s castle.

Even the Count wants to go home with the armadillo.

    HA! Before I got your punchline I was gonna comment “Is that a freakin’ armadillo??” I knew The Count was a Texan! I can strut my native pride in front of Lapper even more now!

    Yes … I wrote that line for you, Fox … and I spent ‘79 to ‘84 in the great state of Texas myself.

    Who knows why Browning put a ‘possums and ‘dillos in Transylvania? Must have been the southern part of the country.
