I, too, think the "Marilyn is a ghost" theory is a pretty good one. I just keep forgetting to mention it.

But Marilyn's not a ghost, though. She just turned out looking like ordinary people. If she were a ghost they would have said so. She was just the daughter of Lily's sister and brother-in-law, who "turned out looking like that".

One thing about their decor that really bothers me is the electric chair Grandpa sits in in the living room. That seems like a much more Addams Family touch than a Munsters touch. Everything else about the Munsters' decor seems very "old world", so this modern day instrument of torture seems out of place to me.

I decided to DVR the show and see it again after 50 some years. I read it ran for only 2 years so the time will fly.
