This is supposed to be the exact same Munster family as in the `60s series "The Munsters". One of Grandpa`s experiments went awry, and put the Munsters into suspended animation for 20 years. Upon awakening in the `80s, they experience the same comic situations since they don`t realize that they aren`t "normal". Dad Herman resembles the Frankenstein monster, Mom Lily and Grandpa are vampires, son Eddie is a werewolf, and only beautiful Marilyn looks like a human.
