Walt created a prototype Crime Computer that was hidden in a mummy case near an exhibit of legendary monsters Dracula, The Wolfman (Werewolf), and Frankenstein. When Walt turned on the machine he had created, "oscillating vibrations" brought life to the wax statues of Dracula, the Werewolf (who referred to himself in one episode as "Bruce W. Wolf," the "W" standing for "Were"), and Frankenstein (named "Frank N. Stien" as seen in the opening credits). These legendary monsters, right their pasts and became crimefighters who each used their special abilities and powers to defeat various supervillains.

    ah yes, I remmeber "The Monster Squad" when I was a kid! Then as you mentioned Fred Grandy moved on to "The Love Boat" after this, and then in 1985 of course he was elected to the US Congress. So you see, a TV star turning into a Congressman isn't doesn't just happen in the Philippines :D
