Count Duckula Ending

Ending to Count Duckula

[@cupcakefairy87]

I used to be shit scared of these closing credits - especially the woman screaming, the skeleton and the Thriller-esque music.

[@alexcordero8432]

Awesome and surreal - yet kinda weird how these ending lyrics describe Duckula as an evil and horrific being, opposed to the opening ones which describe him as funny and friendly.

[@TheRojo387]

Duckula was, ironically, originally that way, until he was destroyed and later revived by tomato juice instead of blood.

[@aceotaku]

now this is a really good ending animation. very unique, with a great song and unique visuals that mix the horror and silliness that's a part of the show's premise. hell now that I thin about it, this show had great visuals for it time, and its a shame we don't have such great exampels of an ending theme in any tv series perioid.

[@LuvsCats1985]

In the 80s, there were lots of popular ducks. Scrooge McDuck, Launchpad McQuack, Huey, Dewey, Louie, Webby, Mrs. Beakley, and all them other ducks from DuckTales, Donald Duck (even though he was around before the 80s), Daffy Duck (who's also been around before the 80s), Darkwing Duck, Howard the Duck (comics and movie), and yes Count Duckula. And for the Nintendo, that Duck Hunt shooting video game. Must have been the time to like ducks, huh?

[@ZootWorld1]

LuvsCats1985 Everyone knows Hugh Neutron thrived in the 80s.

[@haruhisuzumiya6650]

This is a bop

[@Setebos]

I always loved the "if your heart goes BOOM-PA BOOM-PA!"

[@jccw227]

Quite possibly one of the more creative closing credits ever done for an animated series.

[@ElMaruecan82]

it's been almost 16 years i haven't heard this ending theme, so amazing !! this cartoon was unique !!!

[@sdkelmaruecan2907]

It's been almost 16 years I posted that comment, cant believe how time flies.

[@supermasterPIK]

@@sdkelmaruecan2907 last time I saw this cartoon was near 2000...

[@SpreadingtheMuse]

That outro was better than most cartoons in their entirety

[@marksimons584]

Another kids classic by Cosgrove Hall & Thames Television. We had some great kids programmes in the Uk in the 80s.

[@bartez111]

loved this show when I was a kid and seeing this put a huge smile on my face! thanks!

[@Beerlejuice]

MOST AWESOME, BADASS ENDING CREDITS EVER!!!!!! I remember liking the music, but being kind of weirded out with the skeleton and everything. Still the most gothic, punk rock and most awesome ending credits ever!!!!!

[@LordNifty]

The part at 0:42 freaked me out as a kid... it is still kinda unnerving.

[@shoryu87]

Same

[@Boroman9]

Ha, the ending always had me bursting in laughter, espescially seeing the dancing mummy in 0:33. Now that was funny!

[@ScreenBlaster13]

These end credits were the best. Unfortunately they were only in thirteen episodes. Afterwards they altered the credits and took away the flashing red "Duckula" logo, my favourite bit.

[@SuperTed19021]

*No!* There were 65 episodes of "Count Duckula", all that successfully in Britain anyway (6 September 1988-16 February 1993). And they all featured these end credits.

[@ScreenBlaster13]

@@SuperTed19021 No! You've misunderstood. The end credits were the same but slightly altered after the first 13 episodes. The rest of the episodes didn't have the flashing Duckula logo and had credit gags instead. I know because I have the complete series box set.

[@gwyndafbach]

I would love this as my ringtone totally awsome tune! Count Duckula rules!!

[@MrDangerDoom]

Loved this show especially the ending. It was so dark for a kids show, proving the themes considered for adults CAN be added to a childrens show and work if done right.

[@DisneyPlusReviewer]

i luv this show. Can't wait for the DVD of Count Duckula!!!!

[@GoGoRillaChap]

loved watching this as a kid. never realized how "Thriller"-inspired the bass line is lol

[@Doobie1975]

I'm surprised this came out in the late 80's, I always pictured it being an early/mid 70's cartoon

[@protravel999]

I thought so too, but the theme song gives it away...has an 80s r&b feel to it.

[@Minchken]

It does have that 70s animation style, like richie rich and fat albert. I figured it was like 1978 or so

[@sithlord1626]

That's because this was a spin-off of danger mouse from nickelodeon in the mid 80s.....both shows were awesome

[@bdpickett]

God, the intro and end of this show make it sound so awesome. The way they say "Duckula" gets me every time.

[@bigbadbyrnes]

Agreeing with many comments; I used to get scared by the ending (esp. heart on a spring and worms in the brain of the woman with no eyes... scary as hell) but I still watched it had a catchy melody.

[@TechnoHajikelist]

@TechnoHajikelist maybe he's the unseen werewolf in Transylania everyone keeps mentioning but was never seen.

[@stevenqbosell]

One of the funkiest 80's cartoon theme songs, love this, wish I could get a proper instrumental

[@TBSA83]

loved this as a kid

[@juanluiscastillocastillo3877]

I was fascinated with this ending when I was 3 or so (in 2006) In CUBA. You may think I'm lying but my first and last name says it all.

[@JoseGarcia-uf6bn]

@@juanluiscastillocastillo3877 Ure castle,castle count Duckula Juan Its a Spooky last name ! Boooo...!

[@jpsmith81]

This is such cool music! I loved this show as a kid. Brings back so many memories.

[@Kazilikaya]

I loooooooved this show as a kid

[@PaddyPA]

If ya sortaaaaa... or you're a little ooohooooo!

[@Rimpala]

this just screams 80's, like every since inch of it does! The singer does a fantastic job with the themesong

[@Quicksilver1111]

This show used to frighten me as a child. But it was a well made cartoon

[@CM_86]

Beyond awesome, watch it all the time on dvd, duckula is great.

[@EnforcedWarwick]

Maybe you bumped into Duckula. I used to love this cartoon when I was a kid brings back so many memories. Fantastic that they have uploaded it on You Tube, thank you so much for that! Yeah getting it on DVD will be pretty interesting.

[@BelatedCommiseration]

Probably one of the best closing credit sequences of all time....I don't reckon that you would find a single person in the UK aged 20-28 who wouldn't immediately click if this song came on.

[@blackguy2732]

I used to love this show along with Danger Mouse and Banana Man. Man I'm getting old.

[@wenglishsal]

YEP.. He's amazing isn't he.. Crackin' actor and national Treasure in my own humble opinion... Definitely worth another watch for sure.. :0)x

[@drizztluvr]

OMG! I remember watching this show when i was kid. I used to love saying the "duckula" part with the ending theme song. I thought it was so cool.

[@jpsmith81]

I LOVE THIS SHOW!! "I'll get it!"

[@TheManAbove]

I used to watch this when I was a little kid. This brought back so many memories.

[@DjDarkness357]

One of my fave toons back in the day. Great up.

[@Dwojy18]

memory flash back from 10 years ago. good show m'lord.

[@chindougal]

i used to love watchin this when i was younger lol they should put it back on tv anyone else agree? post an agreeing comment lol

[@34Zattara84]

wow! i last watched this cartoon 16 years ago! i always like the ending song cause it has a catchy tunes.

[@leigh1981]

I couldn't wait to come home from school at 3.30pm to watch this! I loved it! Good ole Dave Jason =0)

[@grahamkeithtodd]

used to watch this with my neice when she was 3 years old and she hated my version of "good night out there,what ever you are".. she still remembers it...lol ah happy memorys!

[@lokienvy]

OMG, I loved this cartoon and this song was catchy...even though it scared me when I was younger. LOL.

[@bothered1984]

duckula was a classic. so much better than what they do nowadays. great ending lol. gon get that stuck in my head.

[@eveningtsar]

This was on YTV in Canada during the 90's - just before really old Doctor Who reruns. Good stuff.

[@Criggy94]

i was born a year after count duckula finished, but i remember watching this and danger mouse as a kid and loving every second of it.

[@persianheir5218]

One of the greatest kids shows ever. Brings back so many memory's. I think the end credits is better then the opening.

[@Windclaw]

I miss this show... And fell so freaking old!

[@dhylec]

Another awesome specimen of the 80s. Cartoons don't really even HAVE credit sequences anymore... Seeing this would make anyone think that today's cartoon's suck.

[@hettybobcat]

I used to super-love this show! Man oh man! I had to bargain with grandma for tv-rights since she wanted to watch Winnie the Pooh and I wanted to watch Count Duckula. They came on the same time. :D

[@Somarinoa]

Man such an awesome outro if there ever was one.

[@DragonNexus]

I actually forgot how awesome this outro was... Thanks very much for the reminder!

[@hulkmeister23]

Always at the end of the rolling credits, me and my brother would howl like wolves, it was crazy!

[@eternasapphiremoon81]

the need to come out with this on DVD!!!!! I missed this show!

[@dlk1dlk1]

It's on DVD.

[@Nickthegreek123]

This brings back so many good memories.

[@TrainmasterCurt]

Oh memories of the 1987-1990 YTV lineup! Miss this!

[@BelatedCommiseration]

Good on you squire! Nice to know someones keeping the legend of duckula alive...you know I never thought you could be a vampire and be more wimpy than Duckula...and then twilight came along....and now vampires don't run with the night...they sparkle...

[@fredarok579]

Yeah, but there’s still no vampire zanier.

[@StarPlaty]

Aw, man. I loved that show. I miss it.

[@indrajeet]

Il love this show, like allot of shows from the 80s its genius. Absolutly hilarious!!

[@nnthayer]

0:28 that bell is so awesome

[@maxwestcomics]

I remember this...this has to be the most surreal ending sequence I've seen.

[@crh2010]

loved the intro and ending to this show

[@Sephirothwolf]

Gawd i love this show, Kids don't have any good cartoons now, Kids TV today is, well, for kids... Bring back the good old days of Cosgrove Hall!

[@Beshrewed]

The exit themesong used to scare the crap out of me when I was little!

[@fredarok579]

If your heart goes: *honk* “And two hard-boiled eggs.” Or your mind goes: “That’s no bull, she may be someone’s mother!” Man, you’ve had a brush with *DUCKULA.*

[@Loader2K1]

That part at 0:42 always scared the crap out of me as a kid.

[@dmc41987]

Such a cool show loved this.

[@nahbios]

I definately remember the ending theme, it was pretty scary for me. I was about five or six watching this with my brothers and sisters, not sure if Richard saw it. Aideen definately didn't see it! So good!

[@Vforviolence]

this scared when i was young but i watched it anyways because i used to love the show :)

[@mhaid2000]

Credits roll is hilarious on this show. I laughed soo hard after watching them again.

[@laughingfurry]

Same goes for the states. Especially with the pattern of the shows only available in the states. Almost everything animated revolves around "let's find this before the bad guys do" and/or the bad guy team of one middleaged female and two males. Funny how I mention those two common parts of today's animation and you mention Pokemon starting the end for the UK. Even the not so original stuff of the late 80s and early 90s had more to them than today's stuff.

[@Moreno1Melissa]

I love this, love listening to it.

[@211bill]

"Therm Warfare" by Heatwave in 1979. This is the song that the Count Duckula theme rips off. Just listen and judge for yourself.

[@CROSSTATT]

I love the lightning in the night sky! It is frightening and exciting!

[@jccw227]

Even when I was little, I always enjoyed the closing theme more that the opening.

[@themedownightlord1744]

I loved count duckula

[@vjpearce]

I always found that funny when I was younger XD

[@ShellBelle1234]

I loved this show when I was a kid! There's no good kids' shows these days... :-

[@IncanTV]

The '80s music kick ass. Duckula.

[@LuvsCats1985]

@1985Nebraska As another person who was also born in 1985, I myself remember watching this on Nickelodeon as a child. And yes at the end of these credits it did show them three logos of "Cosgrove Hall Productions," "Nickelodeon," and "Thames TV" in that exact order. This and DangerMouse were great shows for us U.S. kids to watch, along with you U.K. kids over there in the heart of Brittan, back in them days of the late 80s and early 90s.

[@FreyFox87]

Cosgrove Hall's cartoons from the 1980s certainly have aged quite badly - but I am not complaining since that adds a distinctive charm to years gone by. This show was pretty good ^^

[@guruyaya]

Best ending song EVER!!!

[@Dibrini]

Who didn't, they played this show like 20 times a day on Nickelodeon!

[@BritCanuck]

There was a seperate title card for Thames TV at the end, but a few years ago, Thames was renamed Carlton, so for more recent reruns, that card may have been removed.

[@wenglishsal]

@rivercarper01 ...David Jason is truly awesome playing the wonderful Derek ( Del Boy) Trotter and Dangermouse and The BFG too... How brilliant is David Jason... DCI Jack Frost, Pop Larkin, Blanco (Porridge with Ronnie Barker) Granville (Open all Hours with Ronnie Barker again) and lots lots more... :0)x

Wicked sound effects
