Land of the Heads

  1. Overview
  2. Fact Sheet

A vampire is forced to go out to decapitate children because his vain wife wants to replace her old head with one that is young and pretty. How awful! Especially since the lady of the house is never satisfied, and the heads keep pilling up on the floor.
