It was very good! I recommend it even if you're not usually into old TV, but are into Dracula.

It is definitely on YouTube and I love Jack Shepherd's Renfield.

I Do Not Do Sweeney Todd

This is curiosity, not a prelude to an attempt to convince you otherwise: may I ask why?

The first of the two survivors was The Fall of the House of Usher starring Denholm Elliott (again)

Okay, somehow I didn't know that existed.

In contrast, The Open Door was a Mrs Oliphant story that was a little on the dull side and very Victorian, or at least it was until act 3 when they brought in John Laurie to be Very Scottish and exorcise the ghost, clearly a plan with no flaws.

And I had no idea that had ever been adapted! I'm actually very fond of the original story. (Of course it has John Laurie off the page.)
