Count Duckula (1988-1993) was a 65-Episode Cartoon by Cosgrove Hall, the creators of Danger Mouse. Indeed, the title character originally appeared as a bad guy on Danger Mouse, but on his own show he was a fairly amiable vegetarian with aspirations of fame and world travel. As the opening sequence of each episode explains, there was a slip-up in the performance of a resurrection ceremony where tomato ketchup was mistakenly used instead of blood, thus raising the title character as a vegetarian instead of the typical blood sucking evil count.And so, with his butler Igor (not The Igor, but instead a sarcastic hunchbacked vulture who wished his master would act more like a traditional vampire) and his maid Nanny (a hulking, dim but loveable hen with a bad habit of going through doorways without opening them first) in tow, Count Duckula would travel the world, running afoul (excuse the pun) of all manner of folks, including Dr. Von Goosewing, a bumbling vampire hunter who refused to believe Duckula was anything but a threat.The show ran for four seasons. Incidentally, the fourth season is the last Cosgrove Hall cartoon to feature Brian Trueman and David Jason, and the only known post-1992 series that Trueman acted in and wrote for. Although Victor & Hugo was produced afterwards, Count Duckula series 4 wasn't broadcast until after V&H had run.The show was a International Coproduction between Cosgrove-Hall and Nickelodeon, the American licensor of Danger Mouse. Geraldine Laybourne, the then-president of Nickelodeon, had seen an image of Count Duckula at Cosgrove-Hall, and greenlighted a series based on the character. This makes Count Duckula the first animated show specifically commissioned and produced by Nickelodeon, although it is never officially recognized as one of the Nicktoons (since Viacom doesn't own the copyright to the show).The show is perhaps best known today for its sheer influence and popularity in Latin America, where it both introduced Woolseyism and redefined dubbing.A puppet stage show, Count Duckula and the Jewels of Duckula, toured the UK in 2016.

Jekyll & Hyde: In "Doctor Goosewing and Mr. Duck", Dr. Von Goosewing invents a potion that reverses everyone's personality. He and Duckula become "wicious wampires", Igor becomes happy and loving and Nanny becomes a brainbox.

Correlation/Causation Gag
 Count Duckula / int_12ffce31
comment
Correlation/Causation Gag: Near the beginning of "The Vampire Strikes Back", the main trio are in a tower of Castle Duckula when Nanny discovers a case of her homemade sarsaparilla. Duckula implores her not to open the bottle in her hand, reminding her of what happened the last time she did so. Meanwhile, Von Goosewing has placed a large quantity of dynamite at the bottom of the tower, and just as Nanny uncorks the bottle, he detonates the explosives, sending the tower flying into space like a rocket. Unaware that Von Goosewing was responsible for the original liftoff, Duckula tries unsuccessfully to get the tower airborne at the end of the episode by having Nanny open several dozen bottles of sarsaparilla.

Vegetarian Vampire
 Count Duckula / int_143c304b
comment
Vegetarian Vampire: Duh. One of the most blatantly literal uses of the trope. Duckula not only doesn't drink blood, he finds the idea repulsive. (Although he tries to avoid mentioning his vegetarianism to the intelligent vegetables in "Transylvanian Homesick Blues", who see eating vegetables as tantamount to vampirism or cannibalism.)

 Count Duckula / int_157c6c4f
comment
My Grandson, Myself: Played with, in that Duckula himself seems to be vague on whether the previous counts were ancestors or past lives, and has referred to them as both within a single episode. For instance "The Rest is History", where he calls them his ancestors, but then calls the Elizabethan Duckula "past me", and "Family Reunion", where Aunt Lucretia says he's the image of his father, and another relative adds "Of course, he was his father."

The McGhost Of McCastle McDuckula has a bit between Von Goosewing and Duckula's Scottish uncle (who is pretending to run a hotel) in which several of these fire in quick succession, including the uncle mistaking Goosewing asking for a room for "Heinrich here" a needing a room for a "Mr. Hier," to which Goosewing mistakes to mean himself and keeps asking for more rooms. Then the uncle mistakes Goosewing's "nein!" to mean nine rooms!

Breaking the Fourth Wall
 Count Duckula / int_1e7487cd
comment
Breaking the Fourth Wall: In "All in a Fog", Count Duckula says "Cab!" just as a cab appears, then turns to the camera and says, "If only real life was like this!" The Marvel comic book had more than one account of the characters speaking directly to the reader, and seemed to be completely aware that they were in a comic book, including the normally scatterbrained Von Goosewing, who references that he would meet a concerned villager by claiming he would 'be there in one panel.' They also make references to things such as 'plot twists.' Danger Mouse, who appeared as a back up character with adventures of his own, was blatantly aware of the medium in which he was in, and plots in the backup stories typically revolved around that very fact. Duckula and Danger Mouse also met directly in one issue, and became fast friends. Ironically, Duckula was a series that spun out of Danger Mouse's show, which also occasionally had moments of breaking the fourth wall, so this may be some kind of legacy effect on the count's show as much as the comic.

Strike Episode: In "Restoration Comedy", Igor and Nanny go on strike when Duckula hires Mr. Roberto, an interior decorator, to redecorate Castle Duckula in a less dreary fashion. During this strike, Dr. Von Goosewing shows up disguised as a maid in an attempt to kill Duckula. The strike ends when Mr. Roberto quits after finding out that Duckula is a vampire in the hall of mirrors he built, despite Duckula trying to tell him that he's a relatively harmless Vegetarian Vampire.

Only Sane Man: Between Duckula being highly excitable and naive, and Nanny being, well, Nanny, this role falls squarely on Igor's hunched shoulders. Though he is by far the most morbid of the main three, he also tends to have the most solid grasp on what is going on, though his advice is often ignored (such as when he tries, unsuccessfully, to stop Duckula from giving the castle clock to Bill Platypus in "Duckula Down Under" as doing so will disable the castle's teleportation system).

Accent Adaptation
 Count Duckula / int_29718d62
comment
Von Goosewing speaks English with a German accent to remind the viewer that he is from that part of Europe (see Accent Adaptation for how this is handled in some of the foreign dubs). As with most uses of this trope, he frequently throws elementary German words into his speech; for example, he counts down to detonating the explosives surrounding a tower of Castle Duckula in "The Vampire Strikes Back" by saying, "Drei... zwei... eins... feuer!"note  "Three... two... one... fire!"

Analogy Backfire: In "Mobile Home", Ruffles sets up a queue of accomplices from Castle Duckula to the nearest postbox, explaining that he will remove the stones from the castle, the next person will number them, the next will address them to Mr. and Mrs. Paintbrush (the Nouveau Riche American couple who "bought" Castle Duckula from Ruffles and his gang), the next will put a stamp on them, and so on "down the chain" to the postbox. Bert, Ruffles' second-in-command, is confused by his mention of a chain, so he clarifies, "like a bicycle chain." However, a bicycle chain goes in a circle, so the accomplices in the chain eventually pass the stones back to him, to his despair.

Mouthful of Pi: In "Igor's Busy Day", engaged Americans Scott and Laura take shelter in Castle Duckula after their car breaks down. Scott, a mathematician, tells Duckula he has memorised Pi to 15,000 decimal places; Duckula unwisely asks about this, and Scott begins demonstrating, entering an almost trance-like state as he spends most of the rest of the episode reciting numbers. (When Scott, Laura, and their extended family return for a holiday in the final scene, Scott begins reciting the largest known prime number in similar fashion, causing Duckula to wail in despair.)

Surrounded by Idiots: Most of the bad guys, most often Ruffles - who not only has his usual three dunderheads, but sometimes a whole clan of idiot henchmen to screw up his plans... not that he's so much smarter than them. The series' love of this trope is especially noticeable in Venice A Duck Not A Duck, where a bunch of the series' recurring villains join forces to try and kill Duckula one by one, and nearly all of them are foiled by their own bumbling sidekicks or henchmen.

Episode on a Plane: In "Hi-Duck", Duckula, Nanny, and a reluctant Igor prepare to travel by airplane for a castle-free holiday to Nice. When the plane they are on gets hijacked by the bumbling French crooks, Gaston and Pierre, Duckula inadvertently foils their plan and is praised as a hero. Unfortunately, Duckula has to return to Transylvania to hand the crooks over to the authorities and serve as the star witness in their trial.

Seinfeldian Conversation: Constantly. One of the series' primary sources of humor is the characters having longwinded, often inappropriately timed tangents about minutiae (or nothing at all), usually in which one or even all parties have no idea what anyone's talking about.

Daywalking Vampire
 Count Duckula / int_5401e7ac
comment
Daywalking Vampire: The present-day Duckula is unharmed by daylight, in contrast to his traditional vampire incarnations which can be killed by sunlight, although his previous incarnation was killed by sunlight in "Danger Mouse". His relatives seem to be this as well.note As Duckula is a spoof of Dracula, as much as of the Hammer Horror films, this actually means that he and his relatives are actually more in line with the original book than the films due to their being perfectly capable of walking around by day. Duckula plays the aversion of this trope straight as an arrow however in the episode "Dr. Goosewing and Mr. Duck" after imbibing a small amount of Von Goosewing's carpet cleaner in the form of spoonfuls of the stuff plus some cereal. Igor is thrilled, though he reverts to normal not long afterwards.

Ambiguous Syntax
 Count Duckula / int_5aa4ec8a
comment
Ambiguous Syntax: "Igor's Busy Day" has a joke involving Igor enlisting Nanny in triggering a Falling Chandelier of Doom for castle vistors with the instruction: "Hit the beak, Nanny!". He meant for Nanny to press the beak of a statue to activate the Booby Trap, but Nanny thought he meant his own beak. In "Dr. Goosewing and Mr. Duck", Nanny serves Duckula muesli for breakfast. When Duckula finds it appetizing, he tells her, "Hit me with some muesli, Nanny!", and Nanny hits him with the box. When he asks Nanny why she did that, she tells him she only did what he told her to, to which he has to remind her that it's a figure of speech and that he meant for her to put the muesli in a bowl. When Nanny brings Duckula a bottle of Dr. Von Goosewing's carpet shampooer disguised as milk, Duckula is about to say, "Splash me with some milk!", but quickly corrects himself and tells Nanny to splash his muesli with milk.

Freeze-Frame Bonus: The closing zoomout shot of the castle at the end of "All in a fog" shows the castle with a clocktower. Keen-eyed viewers will recall that the castle never appears to have a clock tower in any other depiction throughout the series. Eventually, you'll realize that the clock tower is none other then Big Ben itself; sucked up by Von Goosewing's gigantic vacuum, ejected on to Castle Duckula when Von Goosewing put it into reverse, then transported off to Transylvania when the castle teleported home.

Missed Him by That Much: The episode where Duckula boards a cruise ship that seems to be utterly empty; no matter where he, Igor and Nanny go, there's absolutely no passengers or crew. Igor even compares it to the Mary Celeste. Of course, as we viewers can see, everyone else is there - they just keep going in entirely different directions to the Transylvanians. The episode ends with the three leaving the ship, looking back - and there is everyone waving them off. Or, if you're being uncharitable, having a party because Duckula and Co were gone. It's implied that they were so fed up that they faked the Mary Celeste thing to get them to leave.

Nanny had 'taken her beak out' so sounded different (we're mercifully spared the visuals) but Igor should have been familiar, though Duckula does point out that he sounds familiar.

Impoverished Patrician: The Count has a noble title and a castle, but when it comes to actual cash, it's repeatedly stated that he has virtually nothing. Most prominently, he keeps Igor and Nanny on as servants, despite their somewhat dubious skills, because their loyalty to the Count Duckula title means they're willing to work for free. In one episode, he temporarily dismisses them to take on a batch of penguin servants, but they revolt when they find out he has no money to pay them with.

Animation Bump: Some of the episodes were animated in-house by Cosgrove Hall, while the others were farmed out to a Spanish studio.

In general, the animation is much better than Danger Mouse.

comment
Timey-Wimey Ball: When the series began, it appeared to be set in the then modern day period of the late 80s and 90s, due to relatively modern technology seeing a great deal of use in the series. However, the third season episode "The Rest is History", expands on Igor's claim of having been a servant of the Duckula dynasty for seven hundred and fifty years, and points to the series taking place sometime in late 1949 and into the 1950s. The episode depicts the inaugural Count Duckula as being installed to his royal position in the year 1199 AD, and becoming a Vampire shortly afterwards due to the machinations of what appears to be a younger, but otherwise identical in appearance, Igor. Assuming Igor's claim of having served the "family" for seven and a half centuries to be legitimate, this places the series' modern day— and thus the current Duckula's reincarnation— in roughly 1949 to 1950 and continuing forwards from that point on. This suggests that either the modern technology of the 80s and 90s that was often seen in the cartoon and comics are anachronisms if Igor is indeed the same servant across the intervening centuries, or that Igor came into service of the family after this earlier servant who carried the same name, with no explanation for what happened to the previous Igor, and thus allowing the series to take place in the then modern day years of 1988 through 1993, when the series was broadcast. The Star Comics imprint series for Count Duckula muddies the issue further, with modern technology existing side by side with an athropomorphic parody of Freddy Krueger called Freddy Cuckooger, as well as a crossover story in which the Duckula of the spin-off series encountered Danger Mouse, who was part of the series as a backup story segment in most issues of the Star Comics Count Duckula run. Danger Mouse was depicted as existing in the modern day in both his cartoon series and the backup stories in the Count Duckula comics released by the Star Comics imprint, which depicted both casts of characters being well aware that they were in a comic book series, which makes the Duckula series harder to pin down when trying to determine the period in which it takes place. "Alps-A-Daisy" clearly states that the series takes place in the late 1980s (1989 to be exact) and "The Rest Is History" has the first Count's servant identified as Igorth not Igor. Igor himself seems keen to meet him, implying they are seperate people.

Lawyer-Friendly Cameo: Tremendous Terence for Dan Dare. There's more than a bit of Bluebottle in Pierre's character. One issue of the comic had an appearance by superspy Ian Flamingo, and another featured poet Edgar Allen Crow.

Sickeningly Sweet
 Count Duckula / int_8ee72ccd
comment
Sickeningly Sweet: In "The Vampire Strikes Back", this is the reaction to Planet Cute, a planet that invokes every sickeningly sweet cute stereotype imaginable (Igor takes an instant dislike to it, Duckula soon follows suit, and Nanny thinks it's just lovely; Tremendous Terence, meanwhile, refuses to get too close to it). In a very literal sense, the "Cute Surprise" sold at the food stand has such a high sugar contentnote  Its ingredients are honey, ice cream, raspberry jelly, marshmallows, maple syrup, chocolate sauce, fudge ripple, cherry cola, whipped cream, maraschino cherries, and three kinds of sugar and saccharine topping. that one taste probably would induce diabetes.

First, she misunderstands the command "Hit the beak" and hits Igor's beak instead of the beak of the statue which triggers the falling chandelier. Later, she realises her mistake and hits the beak of the statue... while Igor himself is under the chandelier.

Van Helsing Hate Crimes: Von Goosewing is trying to kill a vegetarian vampire merely because he's a vampire. Though in Goosewing's defence he doesn't know Duckula poses no threat, believing his pleasant demeanor to be no more than a pose, and given that Duckula's previous incarnations were pretty much Hammer Horror villains and the only reason the current one isn't one is a flaw in the reincarnation ritual, it's pretty well justified as these things go. Another reason which is revealed in the comics is that his niece, Vanna, is in a romantic relationship with Duckula, making his hatred more personal.

Long Speech Tea Time: In "Igor's Busy Day," engaged American couple Scott and Laura have taken refuge from a storm in Castle Duckula, and have joined the Count for dinner. While Scott spends the entire meal reciting the digits of Pi, Laura talks at length about how she and Scott met and about her very large family. The thoroughly bored Duckula tries to keep himself occupied by balancing the contents of the fruit bowl on top of each other, firing a pea from his knife at the oblivious Scott, and sculpting a castle out of mashed potato before dozing off and falling face first into it. Meanwhile, Igor and Nanny have long since fallen asleep at the far end of the table. Had Nanny not spilled the poison soup this could've been avoided.

Our Vampires Are Different
 Count Duckula / int_9f63d4f1
comment
Our Vampires Are Different: The Duckulas were all traditional vampires, but the present day one averts nearly every trope usually associated with vampires. He's fully vegetarian, can walk around in broad daylight with no problem and is immune to holy water. The title characrer of the novel Dracula, upon which Duckula is based, was also capable of movement by day, though his powers were weakened. Duckula's powers seem entirely unaffected by the sun, giving him a unique advantage over his inspiration.

Who's on First?
 Count Duckula / int_9f8a12d7
comment
Who's on First?: Hoomite Yubi? Who, Ra? And Upshi rises! Who, Ra? And Upshi rises! Who, Ra? And Upshi rises! Early in the mornin'! Cosgrove Hall cartoons were pretty adept at these exchanges. Done again in the episode "Whodunnit", where Duckula fails to interrogate a character named Willoughy-Stane ("will you be staying"), who "is leaving shortly," but succeeds in making a good routine out of it. The episode "The Lost Valley" makes a fun bit out of Duckula misstating mass-energy equivalence as "m-equals-e-c-two," which Nanny mishears as "easy too," instead of "e-equals-m-c-squared." The McGhost Of McCastle McDuckula has a bit between Von Goosewing and Duckula's Scottish uncle (who is pretending to run a hotel) in which several of these fire in quick succession, including the uncle mistaking Goosewing asking for a room for "Heinrich here" a needing a room for a "Mr. Hier," to which Goosewing mistakes to mean himself and keeps asking for more rooms. Then the uncle mistakes Goosewing's "nein!" to mean nine rooms!

Cruel Twist Ending: A few episodes have these. "The Return of the Curse of the Secret of the Mummy's Tomb Meets Frankenduckula's Monster and the Wolf-Man and the Intergalactic Cabbage..." has Duckula trick all of the villains chasing him, Igor and Nanny into leaving the castle and then teleporting it to escape...only for the castle to reappear on an island and for a giant Sea Monster to suddenly appear and threaten the protagonists. The episode ends with their screaming for help and presumably being eaten by the monster.

Came Back Wrong
 Count Duckula / int_b983a56b
comment
Came Back Wrong: Inverted - Count Duckula was an evil, murderous vampire who, after a botched resurrection ritual, came back right. Although from Igor's perspective the trope is played straight...note Becomes Hilarious in Hindsight when you take into account that the first Count Duckula was actually shown in the episode "And the Rest is History", to be a vegetarian, much like the current incarnation of Duckula. As a result, the modern Duckula is practically his clone, or would be if not for the fact that he does possess other vampiric powers and may in fact possess vampiric immortality, meaning that if he's never slain, then this version of Duckula might well be around forever.

Pilot: "Unreal Estate" was very obviously this, but didn't air until the third season. Among other things, it had Dr. von Goosewing discover that there was a new Duckula around, and heavily implied that his assistant Heinrich was real but quit. The episodes that did air first had the protagonists already familiar with von Goosewing, and didn't exactly do a good job at explaining that the castle automatically teleports back to Transylvania by dawn.

Shout-Out
 Count Duckula / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: As with its parent series, Count Duckula was ripe with Parental Bonus in the form of references that would have gone over the heads of younger audience members. Just to give a few examples: The title of "No Sax Please, We're Egyptian" is a reference to the play No Sex Please, We're British, and the pharaoh who owned the Mystic Saxophone is Zootensimun XVII, a reference to American jazz saxophonist John Haley "Zoot" Sims. When Duckula threatens to sing if Igor and Nanny don't join him on the roller coaster in "Transylvanian Homesick Blues" and they immediately race to the entrance to the ride, Duckula mutters that he's employing a couple of philistines. Igor says, "Phyllis Stein? Isn't that Gertrude's sister?", a reference to early 20th century American author Gertrude Stein. Also doubles as a shout-out to Yellow Submarine, in which Ringo Starr deployed a similar pun.note Namely, that he used to go out with Frankenstein's sister Phyllis. In "Mobile Home", Duckula asks Ruffles, posing as a builder assessing his castle for renovations, for a quote. Ruffles launches into the "Once more unto the breach" monologue from William Shakespeare's Henry V. In "The Lost Valley", Igor wonders why Duckula would rather see the film in the episode's title rather than "the Bela Lugosi film that is being screened at the Regal". The hotel manager in "Hardluck Hotel" is basically Basil Fawlty. In "The Vampire Strikes Back", Duckula meets his space-faring idol Tremendous Terrance; towards the end, Terrance asks Duckula what the date is, to which Duckula replies "It's May the 4th". Terrance responds with "then May the 4th be with you".

Cloudcuckoolander: Nanny regularly smashes through walls instead of using the door simply because she forgets the door is even there, and her idea of an appropriate way to kill a mouse, as described in "Mobile Home", is to throw the stove at it, causing the entire west wing of the castle to collapse. When Duckula asks why she didn't use a mousetrap, she says they're the wrong shape for throwing. Von Goosewing has plenty of space cadet moments. At the beginning of "The Vampire Strikes Back", when he has surrounded a tower of Castle Duckula with dynamite and is preparing to detonate it, he has an "I can't hear you through these earplugs" conversation with himself.

Lame Pun Reaction
 Count Duckula / int_cb0743c0
comment
Lame Pun Reaction: Igor greets most of Duckula's plays on words with stony silence or an annoyed grumble (though he does occasionally chuckle at them, especially if they are at Nanny's expense). For example, in "No Sax Please, We're Egyptian", he tells his master that they can tell they are in the Lower Chamber from the hieroglyphics; Duckula suggests they can tell when they are in the Upper Chamber from the loweroglyphics, to Igor's disgust. Some of Dmitri and Sviatoslav's jokes get this reaction, sometimes with a Collective Groan by the unseen audience for their routines. For example, when Duckula, Igor, and Nanny have been taken to Revolutionary France by Dr. Fazakerly Time in "Transylvanian Homesick Blues", we get this gem: In "Duckula Down Under", Bill Platypus is gradually driven to tears when, while driving across the outback with Duckula's clock (given to him as a gift), he is subjected to a long series of bad Australia-themed jokes by Dmitri and Sviatoslav.

Teleporters and Transporters: The castle is capable of teleporting itself around the world, but must return to Transylvania by dawn Transylvanian time. Some episodes revolve around Duckula trying to con people into buying it and the castle then vanishing.

Stuck in the Doorway: In the episode, "Hi-Duck", Nanny gets stuck in the doorway of the airplane that she, Duckula, and Igor travel to Nice in. As Igor tries to push her through the doorway, he complains to Duckula that they never have this problem when they travel by their castle. When Nanny finally gets through, the flight attendant (whom she is sitting atop) tells her that she should have booked on a Jumbo Jet.

The Door Slams You: Igor accidentally smashes Duckula with the door in "Hardluck Hotel." Duckula does this deliberately to Igor in "Dear Diary" after Goosewing does the same by accident. Nanny does this to Duckula and Goosewing in "A Family Reunion," on one of the few occasions that she opens a door the correct way!

 Count Duckula / int_d0b60f23
comment
Gosh Dang It to Heck!: The phrase "Gordon Bennett!" is used frequently throughout the series by numerous characters as an all-purpose swear word/expression of displeasure. Stories of its origin in the early 20th century vary, but it may be an alteration of "Gorblimey!" (a corruption of "God blind me!"). Exaggerated in "Igor's Busy Day". When clean-cut American tourists Scott and Laura's car breaks down near Duckula's castle, even "gosh darn" is too profane for Laura's ears.

Just a Stupid Accent
 Count Duckula / int_db1ab4b1
comment
Just a Stupid Accent: Duckula sounds virtually American, vaguely New Yorker, despite being voiced by a British actor. His voice seems somewhat based off of Bugs Bunny. While unconfirmed, it is often suspected to have been an attempt to appeal to overseas viewers. It was probably to counter-balance his wacky persona with Danger Mouse's more grounded English accent and demeanor. The Count appeared as a villain in that series first. Von Goosewing speaks English with a German accent to remind the viewer that he is from that part of Europe (see Accent Adaptation for how this is handled in some of the foreign dubs). As with most uses of this trope, he frequently throws elementary German words into his speech; for example, he counts down to detonating the explosives surrounding a tower of Castle Duckula in "The Vampire Strikes Back" by saying, "Drei... zwei... eins... feuer!"note  "Three... two... one... fire!" Gaston and Pierre not only affect comically over the top French accents and throw in the odd basic French word, but also use the rules of French grammar (such as transliterating "Qu'est-ce que c'est?" as "What is that that it is?" instead of simply "What is that?") to signify that they are speaking their native language.

Artistic License - Astrology: According to the opening narration, the vampire resurrection ritual can be performed "once a century, when the moon is in the eighth house of Aquarius". This mystical Techno Babble doesn't make much sense : the 12 "houses" and the 12 "signs" (including Aquarius) are both divisions of the ecliptic plane, each of which form an independent system.

Inspector Javert: Von Goosewing is convinced that Duckula is as evil as his ancestors, several of whom were pursued by Von Goosewing's own ancestors, and that he therefore must be destroyed. He either doesn't notice or simply ignores all evidence that Duckula is infinitely more interested in becoming famous than in drinking blood.

The Alleged Car: We get various versions in "Autoduck," when Duckula wants to break the land-speed record. Igor builds the first one. The Trailer, which appears in three episodes, also counts. The Duckula family car, which has a little haunted house on top of it (and which looks more than a little bit like the Creepy Coupe from Wacky Races).

Weakened by the Light
 Count Duckula / int_fab3c1e1
comment
Weakened by the Light: Duckula or other vampires in general don't seem to have any adverse issue venturing outside in daylight, whereas the previous incarnations of the Counts of Duckula were so depraved and evil, that something as splendid as the sunrise, was enough to kill them. Ironically, this both averts and plays the trope straight. Dracula, whom Duckula is based on, could move about by day, but at reduced levels of power. He apparently retained his inhuman strength and possibly his unnatural speed, but could not shapeshift except at three specific times of day. Duckula seems to only possess a teleportation ability which was never explained, but has no limitations on when he can perform the feat.
