- TriviaIn keeping with the Halloween setting several character names allude to the horror/ mystery genre. Victor Clerval combines Victor Frankenstein and his friend Henry Clerval. Madeleine Escher and her boyfriend Roddy Allen are references to Edgar Allan Poe's "Fall Of The House Of Usher", in which Madeline Usher appears to obsess Roderick, her brother. "Ligeia" is a story by Poe which also features Rowena Trevanion. Van Tessel evokes Katrina Van Tassel in Washington Irving's "Legend of Sleepy Hollow". Jonathan Corwin was an important inquisitor in the Salem witch trials. Ken Strickfaden was a film effects designer, notably on the iconic laboratory sets for Frankenstein (1931) and Bride of Frankenstein (1935).

Professor Angus Rawbone: [Leaving a house with a dead body, presumably after the initial on-site examination] Between 2 and 4 this morning, to save you asking; have to wait for the PM
[Post Mortem = autopsy]
Professor Angus Rawbone: for anything further
DI Robert Lewis: First impressions?
Professor Angus Rawbone: Throat cut from left to right, finger marks on the lips and chin? I think we can discount suicide
DS James Hathaway: You know, what he lacks in bedside manner, he more than makes up for in basic incivility
- ConnectionsReferences Bride of Frankenstein (1935)
This is a fantastic episode. It is very dark and creepy and is packed full of twists and turns.
The final scenes are stunning and particularly chilling..
As a trainee doctor i find one of the other reviews deeply worrying... When will you people realise stem cell research is about SAVING lives and finding cures or treatments for, among other things, serious degenerative diseases that cause unimaginable suffering to those who have them and their loved ones!
