 If this was made into a film by Roger Corman starring Vincent Price, it would be "hauntingly" terrific. Exceptional for THE NIGHT GALLERY as well. This CBSRMT episode starts off slow, but it does build up to a wicked climax. What makes this Bram Stoker story entertaining other than the sound effects of the thunderstorm, the bell, the fire, and the Rat, is the music. It's frighteningly delightful. The music in ACT-1 gives you a chill to the bone. The music in ACT-2 makes your flesh crawl. But the music in ACT-3 (at the 37-minute 28-second mark) will make your BLOOD RUN COLD! Definitely worth listening to in the dark.
