aand here's what it's about..
Mortimer Crayle, a crusty old lawyer, and his secretary Zoe, have
gathered the quirky Tomb family in an old gloomy mansion, ostensibly
to inform them about their inheritance. But Crayle has designs on
the inheritance which demand the deaths of all the Tombs! It won't
be easy, of course- The Tombs are a renowned family of assassins and
are not about to give in without a fight.

In the mansion's cobwebby corridors, things and people, are seldom
what they seem. With poison in every decanter and mysterious
disappearances into secret passageways, hosts and guests alike join
the increasing number of bodies in the cellar. In this murder
mystery, everyone is a suspect.

This glorious comedy thriller spoofs every horror convention and
will keep you at the edge of your seats!

Tiptoe Through the Tombstones is directed by Mr Nicholas Perry, with
Amanda Chong as Assistant-Director.
