RIFTON, N.Y.
SALUTATIONS!
We are four orphans who were adopted and raised by a wealthy recluse whom we knew only as Uncle Titus. Our beloved uncle knew that we were different from other children, and kept us confined to the family mansion, where we subsisted on a diet of vintage films, Mad magazine and horror comics, along with the occasional postal worker. Until the age of sixteen, James could only communicate by playing musical instruments, while Jeremy taught himself to move like a little monkey. Michael, thought to be the most normal of us, has trained an army of rats to do his bidding. As for Alisa, Uncle Titus used to call her the spider. We all treasure our Prince Phillip doll, which we found in the attic hidden away in an old trunk. Why were there so many padlocks on that trunk? Perhaps someone was worried he would be stolen! Philip is so lifelike, you can almost hear him whispering in your ear and telling you all kinds of interesting secrets.
Come see us in action!
