Grandpa Munster's Spells - The sitcom THE MUNSTERS/CBS/1964-66 featured Grandpa Munster (Al Lewis), an aging 350-year-old vampire who puttered around his dungeon laboratory mixing potions and inventions and creating such inventions as an alarm-clock pill that wakes you up on time, and a pill that turns water into gasoline. Occasionally, his potions required the assistance of special spell to get them going. Some sample spells include: "Abracadabra and asee dosee, allakazam and Bela Lugosi!" (to help Herman wrestle); "Ibbidy-bibiddy, rinkidy-dink, make like a statue and freeze, you fink! (to hold a criminal frozen for police); "Don't let time and space detain ya, off you go to Transylvania (the spell backfired and sent the whole family to Happy Valley Motel in Kansas City).
