Bat Lyrics
In front of the Castle Exterior image, a large white piece of parchment comes down (or is brought down by Mini Grey bats) containing the lyrics to the audience participation song. The words need to be big, so this takes up nearly the whole screen: "When you find that you're in Transylvania/To keep your mind off your bat mania/Find something that will entertain ya/So come on and sing it with me..."

The Whole Digital Show (ppt)
The complete Dracula Digital Show in two Powerpoint files (one for each act), with Flash movies embedded. Open the zip file, put all the contents into one directory, and hopefully it should work out of the box. IMPORTANT: remember that when you are in a full-screen slideshow, you can only operate the Flash movies when they have focus, so you will need to subtly click somewhere on the movie in the slide. You also need to click out of the Flash movie in order to return to operating the Powerpoint file.
