3. The Rewards!
2. The Origins!
Writer Dirk Manning discussed the project’s origins and said, “This vampire/murder mystery film directed by Tod Browning and starring Lon Chaney was originally released in 1927, but the last remaining copy of the film was lost in a fire in the mid-1960s. Even before that, it hadn’t been seen by the public in decades – remember, this was before streaming, DVDs, or even VHS – making it a true ‘Holy Grail’ for fans of classic film and horror alike.”
1. The Timing!
Manning continued, “Well, a few years ago, Majik Ninja Entertainment’s George Vlahakis connected me and Ron Chaney of Chaney Entertainment about possibly doing some comic work together after the success of TWIZTID HAUNTED HIGH-ONS… and now here we are with the first graphic novel adaptation from this partnership coming to life later this month!”
