Playwright Sebastian Sly, author of such all-time bombs as Dial M for Morose, The Cat and the Canard, and Ten Little Ninjas, lives in a creepy old mansion called The Shadows. His arch enemy is the clever, but snide, drama critic Sylvia Frye. She hates stage thrillers and with her ruthless reviews, has managed to force Sebastian into retirement. Plotting revenge, Sebastian invites her to his home where all manner of chills and thrills are trotted out to convince her she’s wrong about his work. We meet an hilarious “cast:” The murderous Creeper; an old actress noted for her shattering screams; a butler named Skull and a housekeeper named Bones and that’s just the beginning. Two likable innocents, Zip and Lilac, show up and are terrorized by the insane goings-on. Ultimately, Sylvia exposes the plot. But will Sylvia gets hers in the end? Don't miss this award winning mystery by the author of The Butler Did It and Varney the Vampire. "A spoofy, spooky treat.... The laughs just kept coming." Gold Coast Reviewer. Winner of the 1991 Y.E.S. New Play Festival |
