Fang the Gargoyle is a protector that guards the portal
between the nether world and this world. He was perched
high atop the spires of the secret castle of Dr. Victor
Frankenstein many centuries ago. After the castle was destroyed
by a mob of angry villagers, the remnants disappeared for
years. This particular gargoyle is just one in an entire
legion of the castle's gargoyles that was recovered from
a village in Transylvania by Malchai Goole, the Club's black
market importer/exporter. Fang now sits atop the private
elevator of Dr. Henry Jekyll and is responsible for its
operation—bringing the Master from his private study
into the Club to greet the guests.
This Priceless statue depicting the mighty
Zeus was presented to Dr. Henry Jekyll in 1971 by the clandestine
organization known as the Talamasca. The ancient statue
was originally found deep in the Sargasso Sea, among the
wreckage of the sailing ship "Caeaphus". Once
the idol was recovered, the Talamasca used mystical means
to contact the mighty Olympian and court his favor. This
statue now acts as a way to communicate with Zeus and receive
the valued guidance of the Lion of Olympus. Dr. Jekyll feels
that it is the most valuable piece in his collection and
is indebted to the Talamasca for their great generosity.
Maximillian Gorey was the original bartender for the Club.
He served Dr. Jekyll and his companions for years mixing
such potent drinks as the "Cerebral Hemorrhage"
and the "Spine Smasher". Max perished in an unfortunate
blender accident. in the words of club member Lucifer Garrotte,
"Max was a good bartender, but he was a great Daiquiri."
Max was recently revived by Dr. Henry Jekyll, and now acts
as a mentor to our staff of noble bartenders.
KILLED IN 1944 BY A SILVER BULLET FROM AN UNKNOWN ASASSIN'S
GUN.
Early in his life, Club member Tobias Bloodworth ran afoul
of Wolfgang Finley and was turned into an unwilling Lycanthrope.
In the madness that followed his transformation into a werewolf,
Bloodworth savagely butchered a band of wandering gypsies.
The only member of the gypsy band to survive was a small
girl named Magda, who lay beneath the corpse of her aunt,
feigning death to escape the monster's wrath. As she hid,
the girl used her gypsy talent and cursed Bloodworth so
that after his death his head would live on to tell the
tale of his murderous act upon her people.
Dr. Madd is a descendant of Dr. Victor Frankenstein (Frankenstein
means Madd in various Eastern European tongues). He has
dedicated his life to recreating the great works of his
predecessor and reclaiming Frankenstein's good name. Like
Frankenstein, Dr. Madd is eccentric and a bit of a loner,
but is completely willing to discuss his studies and experimentation
with any guest at the party. He lives for his work and his
(and Dr. Frankenstein's) reputation. He is awkward with
women, but they somehow see this as a bit attractive. He
thoroughly enjoys teaching children about the "scientific"
methods he uses to bring life to The Creature.
An important surgeon (at least in his own mind), Dr. Hacketoff
sees himself as a cross between Dr. Frankenstein and George
Clooney. He is very confident about his abilities, appearance
and popularity. As a result, this contributes to the fact
that none of the male Club Members like him. It has been
rumored that he is from Transylvania, and he is only too
happy to keep these rumor alive; though in reality, he is
actually from Pennsylvania. From time to time, this terrible
embarrassment leaks out and Dr. Hacketoff is almost unable
to control his terror at being "caught". BE CAREFUL,
he is flirtatious, charming, and ultimately heartbreaking
to all the female Club Members who want just one chance
with him. He has never actually done anything of any scientific
value, and one wonders how he got so close to Dr. Jekyll.
What, or who, does he know?
The archival of Dr. Madd, Dr, Danger is bitter, angry, and
vindictive! She busies herself with dangerous experimentation
and is willing to perform on anyone, especially the guests.
BE CAREFUL, she doesn't always ask for permission! Dr. Danger
does have a sweet side, however, but that is directed mostly
towards some of the Enchanted Exhibits such as Zeus, Fang,
Tobias and Max Gorey.
