The mere sight of him makes anyone scream, fight or faint. Gee, won't that be hard to make into a puppet! here's the link to the full original novel. It is in public domain now (at least for sure in the USA). http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/84 Maybe one movie version took the "mental deterioration" to be a physical one. What's often confusing, is that after a movie comes out, some make a book based on the movie, leading many to believe it is the original story. _______________________________________________ List address: puptcrit-AT-puptcrit.org Admin interface: http://lists.puptcrit.org/mailman/listinfo/puptcrit Archives: http://www.driftline.org
