A reboot of The Munsters, it was written and executive produced by Fuller as a one-hour drama with "spectacular visuals." The special concerns the day-to-day life of a family of benign monsters, with married couple Herman Munster (a Frankenstein's monster/zombie) and Lily Munster (a vampire). Lily's father, Grandpa is also a vampire who lives with the family and is feral. Herman and Lily have a son, Eddie, who learns in the course of the special that he is a werewolf, and their niece, Marilyn, also lives with them. It explored the origins of the Munster family and was darker and edgier, while retaining plenty of humor.
