PRODUCT INFORMATION
Widely acclaimed for having modernized television horror in the 1960s and ’70s, producer Dan Curtis (Dark Shadows, The Night Stalker) also embraced more traditional approaches. This special edition presents Curtis’s made-for-TV versions of the three foundational monsters of filmdom. Adapted by Richard Matheson (Somewhere in Time) and starring Jack Palance (Shane), Dracula was filmed in Eastern Europe and was the first film to make a connection between Bram Stoker’s vampire and Vlad the Impaler. Bo Svenson (Part 2: Walking Tall) portrays the heartbreakingly childlike monster of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. Robert Louis Stevenson’s The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde features a ferocious performance by Palance as the scientist who unbridles the deepest, darkest urges of the human animal.

No, we only ship inside the US
Most orders for in-stock items take less than 24 hours to ship (may take longer if you place an order over the weekend). Pre-orders are shipped as soon as the product arrives. International pre-orders may not come in before the street date. This is especially true with Australian pre-orders.
We only use USPS for all shipments. If there is an issue after your order ships you will need to contact your local post office.
Product
All items that come with a slipcover will say so in the product page.
Pre-orders will not say WITH SLIPCOVER until the product comes in.
Slipcovers are not guaranteed to be in mint condition.
If you can order it, it's either in stock or a pre-order. If an item is out of stock you will not be able to add it to your cart. It's rare but our inventory may not be correct. So in some cases an item may have to be shipped separately.
