I saw a special recently about the catacombs under Paris, and of course
Rice's "Interview with a Vampire" came to mind. The catacombs are
creepy, maybe a meeting place for some sinister cult. As to the vampires
and nosferatu in Romania and Eastern Europe, that would of course be a
given. RVC II does a great job explaining those beasties.

Lunacy doesn't take a holiday. I remember there was a mad King Ludwig of
Bavaria who built expensive castles all over the place. I'm not
suggesting make the guy totally Hitleresque. Maybe he just wants to
seize Germany for himself, not the rest of Europe.
