Sweeney Todd: the original Novel

Bought a copy of Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street (the original novel) yesterday. It's an edited reprint of the original penny dreadful serial from 1846-7 and is edited by Robert L. Mack.

I was reading the introduction to this while waiting for Kevin and Michelle last night. This should be interesting reading, because although many of the characters have similar names, I know that they are radically different from the ones shown in the most recent film.

Now I wonder where I can get a copy of Varney the Vampire?

Zap!

about time!
