From E-gor's Chamber of TV Horror Hosts: "Friday Night Dead featured the talents of veteran radio personality Al Sahley as "Fat Drac, the King of Corpuscular Corpulence. The biggest name in Mountain State monsters!" Sahley was a self-professed "ham" with a talent for vocal characterizations and imitations, who had always wanted to do a Dracula character (white face, fangs, slicked back hair, cape, over-the-top Transylvanian accent). The show's debut was broadcast live but was subsequently taped on Wednesdays to allow time for editing and refinement. Sahley and production manager Steve Utt pulled together the costume and set, which included a plywood backdrop of castle walls and bats and a shipping coffin (a wooden box lined with felt)".
