Sequel to The Reluctant Vampire, and continuing in similar vein the flood of corny puns and awful jokes so typical of Morecambe's stage performances. Marvellous material, which reaches real heights in parts: 'Although the driver and his co-driver sat outside on top of the coach, they shared one enormous hat. It had two skull caps covered with one long piece of material, like a plank of wood with two inverted soup bowls.' Illustrations by Tony Ross complement Morecambe's wit in portraying the sinister village of Katchem-by-the-Throat. As the man said. 'Wotcha, Gotcha, I'm here to getcha.'
