Bill T Another murder mystery here, that sort of starts off good, A man, who has two wives die in suspicious circumstances pretty much one after the other.. Well, HE dies in sus[icious circumstances! The Crime Doctor is on the scene, and it involves, carpentry, trap doors, a weird stage act, a club with a robin hood theme, and yes, VAMPIRES! Sort of goes ALL OVER THE PLACE. It's ok, but this series is sort of wearing me out. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Felt like I had to restart this one a few times ether because of error or I didn't totally understand what they were trying to sell me but like a mystery that's where it's at. Until you figure it out, and trust me I'm still a little confus-Ed to be honest. :)) but for some old time crime story go with this because it is pretty darn good!
