Narrator:
Castle Duckula. Home for many centuries to a terrible dynasty of vicious vampire ducks. The counts of Duckula! Legend has it that these foul beings can be destroyed by a stake through the heart, or exposure to sunlight. This does *not* suffice, however, for they may be brought back to life, by means of a secret rite, that can be performed once a century when the moon is in the eighth house of Aquarius.
Igor:
[performing ritual] ... bat wing blood.
Nanny:
I'll get it!
Narrator:
The latest reincarnation did not run according to plan.

It's good to see Cosgrove-Hall creators poking fun at the old Dracula movies through this classic cartoon series.
The basic plot line, if you don't already know it, concerns the misadventures of a vegan vampire duck , an outstanding blot on the escutcheon of a proud bloodthirsty race of vampire ducks. Count Duckula is helped or hindered by the Family's fiercely loyal butler with as big a bloodlust as his masters of old, not to mention an amiable if very accident prone giant chicken named Nanny.
The cartoons creators make use of every and any situation to wring the maximum jokes and puns as only Cosgrove and Hall know best. See clichés of the horror movies put through the spoof grinder. A absolute classic of the 80's genre, and well worth a watch.
