About the game
Game featuring a large vampire figure that can "bite" players' fingers. Players advance around the board and at some point are required to roll a die and then have to turn the clock attached to the vampire up to that number of clicks. If you roll a 4, you can turn it 1,2,3, or 4 times. If you're unlucky, the vampire will "wake up" (his cape swings open) and you have to put your finger in his mouth and he will actually bite you (with red felt tip markers).
